A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
AN ACT TO REMOVE THE LIMITATION ON FUNDING FOR THE PER DIEM COSTS OF INMATES HOUSED OUT-OF-STATE.
The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:
Section 1.  Subsection (c) of Section 21.2 of Chapter 769 of the 1993 Session Laws reads as rewritten:
"(c)	The availability of out-of-state housing funds shall be reduced by (i) the amount needed to fund local confinement costs for offenders held in contempt for probation violations under G.S. 15A-1344(e1); and (ii) the amount required to comply with subsections (a) and (b) of this section.  If the Department of Correction projects that funds will not be sufficient to meet all of its contracts for the out-of-state housing of inmates, the Department may use funds available to meet its contractual obligations."
Sec. 2.  This act is effective upon ratification.
