AI Summary

This bill clarifies the tax revenue deposit provisions related to the Mississippi Student Funding Formula and the Education Enhancement Fund. Specifically, the bill ensures that the repeal of the Educational Facilities Revolving Loan Fund does not affect the ongoing deposit of tax revenues into the Education Enhancement Fund. The bill adds language requiring that any outstanding loan repayments from school districts for funds previously received under the now-repealed Educational Facilities Revolving Loan Fund must be remitted to the Department of Finance and Administration and deposited into the Education Enhancement Fund until all remaining financial obligations are fully satisfied. This technical amendment preserves the existing funding mechanism and ensures that any remaining financial commitments from the previous loan fund are properly handled, maintaining the intended financial structure for educational funding in Mississippi.
