25person from filing by the prescribed method or any other factor
26that the department determines is relevant.

4Section 7. The effective date of the amendment of section
510 of the act, under section 8(1) of this act, is not dependent
6upon rulemaking by the Department of Revenue nor the State
7Treasurer.

8Section 8. This act shall take effect as follows:

9(1) The amendment of section 10 of the act shall take
10effect January 1, 2014.

11(2) The remainder of this act shall take effect
12immediately.

<-13Section 1. The General Assembly finds and declares as
14follows:

15(1) The intent of this act is to provide for the
16implementation of the 2013-2014 Commonwealth budget.

17(2) The Constitution of Pennsylvania confers numerous
18express duties upon the General Assembly, including the
19passage of a balanced budget for the Commonwealth.

20(3) Article III, section 24, of the Constitution of
21Pennsylvania requires the General Assembly to adopt all
22appropriations for the operation of government in the
23Commonwealth, regardless of their source. The Supreme Court
24has repeatedly affirmed that, "It is fundamental within
25Pennsylvanias tripartite system that the General Assembly
26enacts the legislation establishing those programs which the
27state provides for its citizens and appropriates the funds
28necessary for their operation."

29(4) Pursuant to Article VIII, section 13 of the
30Constitution of Pennsylvania, the General Assembly is

1explicitly required to adopt a balanced Commonwealth budget.
2Given the unpredictability and potential insufficiency of
3revenue collections, various changes in State law relating to
4sources of revenue, the collection of revenue and the
5implementation of statutes which impact revenue may be
6required to discharge this constitutional obligation.

7(5) Article III, section 11, of the Constitution of
8Pennsylvania requires the adoption of a general appropriation
9bill that embraces "nothing but appropriations." While
10actual appropriations can be contained in a General
11Appropriations Act, the achievement and implementation of a
12comprehensive budget involves more than appropriations.
13Ultimately, the budget has to be balanced under Article VIII,
14section 13, of the Constitution of Pennsylvania. This may
15necessitate changes to sources of funding and enactment of
16statutes to achieve full compliance with these constitutional
17provisions.

18(6) For the reasons set forth in paragraphs (1), (2),
19(3), (4) and (5), it is the intent of the General Assembly
20through this act to provide for the implementation of the
212013-2014 Commonwealth budget.

22(7) Every provision of this act relates to the
23implementation of the operating budget of the Commonwealth
24for this fiscal year, addressing in various ways the fiscal
25operations, revenues and potential liabilities of the
26Commonwealth. To that end, this act places conditions on
27appropriations, provides for accountability for spending and
28makes any necessary transfers or other changes necessary to
29impact the availability of revenue or the fiscal conditions
30of the Commonwealth, in order to meet the requirements of

1Article VIII, section 13, of the Constitution of Pennsylvania
2and to implement the act of , 2013 (P.L. , No. A), known as
3the General Appropriation Act of 2013.

4Section 2. Section 9 of the act of April 9, 1929 (P.L.343, 
5No.176), known as The Fiscal Code, amended July 2, 2012 
6(P.L.823, No.87), is amended to read:

7Section 9. Method of Payment.--(a) Notwithstanding any
8other provisions of this act or any other acts, the State
9Treasurer and the Secretary of Revenue shall jointly prescribe
10by regulation the method of payment of obligations due the
11Commonwealth. Such regulations shall include:

12(1) Requiring payment by electronic funds transfers (EFT)
13which includes automated clearinghouse debit, automated
14clearinghouse credit, wire transfer and any other means that may
15be available to obtain funds due the Commonwealth in the most
16expeditious manner. The payor shall select which method of
17electronic funds transfer he wishes to utilize from among these
18options.

19(2) Setting the date on which a payment is deemed to have
20been received when a method other than mail is required.

21(3) Establishing procedures to be followed when a method
22other than mail is required.

23(4) Any other provisions necessary to ensure the prompt
24deposit of funds legally due the Commonwealth.

25(5) An option permitting payment by certified or cashier's
26check delivered in person or by courier to the Department of
27Revenue on or before the due date of the obligation, in lieu of
28payment by electronic funds transfer.

29(b) The regulations shall not require:

30(1) Any payment to be posted to a Commonwealth account prior

1to the due date, including grace periods, established by law or
2regulations.

3(2) Changes to the method of payment for those payments made
4by individuals under Article III of the act of March 4, 1971
5(P.L.6, No.2), known as the "Tax Reform Code of 1971."

6(3) Changes to the method of payment when the payment is
7less than [ten thousand dollars ($10,000)] one thousand dollars 
8($1,000).

9(4) Automated clearinghouse debit as the sole and exclusive
10means of complying with this act and the regulations promulgated
11pursuant to this act.

5Reform Code of 1971" for failure to file a return, report or

20Revenue may consider unusual circumstances that may prevent the
21person from filing by the prescribed method or any other factor
22that the department determines is relevant.
