The People of the State of Michigan enact:
Sec. 1b. (1) This act shall be read in conjunction with the annual appropriation act appropriating funds for the department for each fiscal year. The annual appropriation act shall be considered as a time-limited addendum to this act.
(2) A program created in or authorized under this act is subject to the annual appropriation of funds. The inclusion of a program in this act does not create an entitlement to that program, and any state department responsible for administering a program under this act is not required to operate that program unless the legislature appropriates funds for that program.
This act is ordered to take immediate effect.
