The program plan to be implemented 12 29 provides for securitization of the portion of the state's 12 30 share of the tobacco master settlement agreement sold to the 12 31 tobacco settlement authority. The bill directs the authority 12 32 to sell tax-exempt bonds in specified amounts to be used for 12 33 capital projects, certain debt service, and payment of 12 34 attorney fees related to the master settlement agreement. The 12 35 bill also authorizes the authority to issue taxable bonds or 13 1 tax-exempt bonds to provide additional proceeds to be used for 13 2 the purposes specified in Code section 12.65. 13 3 The bill provides that the state reserves the right to 13 4 alter, amend, repeal, or otherwise change the structure, 13 5 organization, programs, or activities of the authority, except 13 6 that no law is to be enacted that impairs any obligation made 13 7 under a sales agreement or contract which would contravene 13 8 constitutional provisions. 13 9 The bill amends the section of Code chapter 12E relating to 13 10 the tobacco settlement trust fund to provide for two separate 13 11 accounts within the fund. The net proceeds of the tax-exempt 13 12 bonds are to be deposited in the tax-exempt bonds proceeds 13 13 restricted capital funds account to be used to fund capital 13 14 projects, certain debt service, and payment of attorney fees 13 15 related to the master settlement agreement.

For 13 24 the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2002, and annually 13 25 thereafter, a transfer of $55 million plus an inflationary 13 26 factor of 1 1/2 percent of the amount transferred in the 13 27 previous year is required to be transferred from the endowment 13 28 for Iowa's health account to the healthy Iowans tobacco trust 13 29 created in Code section 12.65. 13 30 The bill also amends Code section 12.65 to rename the 13 31 "tobacco settlement endowment fund" the "healthy Iowans 13 32 tobacco trust". Moneys appropriated from the endowment for 13 33 Iowa's health account and from any other source are to be 13 34 deposited in the trust to be used in accordance with 13 35 appropriations made from the trust for purposes related to 14 1 health care, substance abuse treatment and enforcement, 14 2 tobacco use prevention and control, and other purposes related 14 3 to the needs of children, adults, and families in the state. 14 4 The bill eliminates the savings account for healthy Iowans 14 5 within the trust. 14 6 The bill provides that until the sale of the portion of the 14 7 state's share is effective, the state's share is to be 14 8 deposited in the healthy Iowans tobacco trust created in Code 14 9 section 12.65. Upon the effective date of the sale, the 14 10 state's share is to be transferred or deposited in accordance 14 11 with the sales agreement and Code chapter 12E. 14 12 The bill takes effect upon enactment. 14 13 LSB 3581XC 79 14 14 pf/gg/8
