28

department or agency, the Governor is hereby authorized by means of executive order to transfer

29

or reallocate, in whole or in part, the appropriations and the full-time equivalent limits affected

thereby; provided, however, in accordance with Rhode Island General Law, Section 42-6-5, when

required at the discretion of the Governor to fund expenditures for which appropriations may not

exist. Such contingency funds may also be used for expenditures in the several departments and

13

a businesslike manner, promote efficient use of services by making agencies pay the full costs

14

associated with providing the services, and allocate the costs of central administrative services

15

across all fund types, so that federal and other non-general fund programs share in the costs of

16

general government support. The controller is authorized to reimburse these accounts for the cost
