Any and all MSA Disbursements received prior to the effective date of this Act shall be immediately transferred to the Tobacco Settlement Cash Holding Fund upon this chapter becoming effective. The Tobacco Settlement Cash Holding Fund is intended as a cash fund, not subject to appropriation, and, to the extent practical, amounts in the Tobacco Settlement Cash Holding Fund shall be immediately distributed to the other Funds and Accounts described in this chapter.(c) The Initial MSA Disbursement shall be distributed from the Tobacco Settlement Cash Holding Fund to the Arkansas Healthy Century Trust Fund as an initial endowment pursuant to § 19-12-107.(d) After the Initial MSA Disbursement has been transferred as set forth in subsection (c) of this section, the State Board of Finance, beginning with MSA Disbursements for years 2001 and thereafter, shall receive all amounts due to the State from the MSA Escrow.
