North Dakota Code 6-09-15.1 – Loans to general fund authorized – Continuing appropriation – Report
The state treasurer and the director of the office of management and budget may, when the balance in the state general fund is insufficient to meet legislative appropriations, borrow from the Bank of North Dakota in an amount that at no time exceeds the total principal amount of fifty million dollars with principal maturity not to extend beyond the biennium in which the borrowing occurs. As a condition precedent to the loan, the state treasurer must request and obtain a statement from the director of the office of management and budget and state tax commissioner certifying that anticipated general fund revenues for the balance of the biennium in which the loan is taken will exceed the principal amount and interest on the loan. The state industrial commission may in turn direct the Bank of North Dakota to make loans to the state general fund at such rates of interest as the industrial commission may prescribe. The state treasurer and the director of the office of management and budget shall establish a repayment plan for the repayment of the principal upon maturity and the interest when due. The office of management and budget shall report to the budget section of the legislative management regarding any loans obtained pursuant to this section.
