a. If in any fiscal year there is enacted an appropriation from the "Surplus Revenue Fund" pursuant to section 5 of this act, there shall not be enacted any imposition of new taxes or increases in existing tax rates or tax structure modifications having the effect of increasing revenues except as provided in subsection b. of this section.
b. If the amount of the decline in revenue collections in the General Fund is greater than the equivalent of 2% of the total available resources in the General Fund as certified by the Governor upon approval of the annual appropriation act for the fiscal year in which that revenue decline is anticipated, the restrictions of subsection a. of this section shall not apply and the balances in the "Surplus Revenue Fund" may be appropriated in any other manner as found to be in the best interests of the fiscal condition of the General Fund.
