An Act relative to transfers from the General Fund to the Stabilization Fund.

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows:
 

SECTION 1. Notwithstanding any general or special law to the contrary, the threshold above which the comptroller shall make any transfers attributable to capital gains tax collections pursuant to section 5G of chapter 29 of the General Laws shall be $1,219,790,736 during fiscal year 2018.

SECTION 2.  This act shall take effect as of July 1, 2017.
