§ 31-17-33. State bonds; method of retirement by state bond retirement commission.
 

The purpose of Sections 31-17-27 through 31-17-43 is to create a fund for the ultimate retirement of the full faith and credit bonds of the State of Mississippi issued and outstanding as of July 1, 1944, and to set aside, earmark, and irrevocably pledge from the cash now in or to be added to the general fund of the state treasury a sum sufficient to pay all outstanding full faith and credit bonds of the State of Mississippi. To that end, therefore, not less than fifteen (15) days prior to each maturity date of full faith and credit bonds authorized to be retired from funds in the state bond retirement revolving fund under the provisions of said sections, an amount sufficient to pay the principal thereof at such maturity date shall be made available by the state bond retirement commission and shall be withdrawn from the state bond retirement revolving fund upon the order of the commission for the payment thereof, as provided by law. This process shall continue and like withdrawals shall be made at each succeeding maturity date of full faith and credit bonds authorized to be retired from funds in the state bond retirement revolving fund until the said state bond retirement revolving fund shall be exhausted or until all full faith and credit bonds of the state outstanding at July 1, 1944, shall be fully paid and satisfied. When all such bonds are paid, any balance remaining in said state bond retirement revolving fund shall be transferred to the general fund of the state.
