Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:

§ 9-178.2. Law-enforcement expenditures.

There is hereby created a special nonreverting fund to be administered by the Department of Criminal Justice Services, known as the Regional Criminal Justice Academy Training Fund. This Fund shall be established on the books of the Comptroller and any funds remaining in such Fund at the end of the biennium shall not revert to the general fund, but shall remain in the Fund. Interest earned on the Fund shall be credited to the Fund. The Fund shall consist of moneys forwarded to the State Treasurer for deposit in the Fund as provided in §§ 16.1-69.48:1 and 17.1-275, which sums shall be deposited in the state treasury to the credit of this Fund. Money in the Fund shall be used to provide financial support for regional criminal justice training academies, and shall be distributed as directed by the Department of Criminal Justice Services.

Existing funds for the regional criminal justice training academies shall not be reduced by either state or local entities as a result of the enactment of Chapter 215 of the Acts of Assembly of 1997.

A county or city which has the responsibility for training a total of 1,000 or more law-enforcement officers, including police officers and deputy sheriffs, and that does not participate in the Regional Criminal Justice Academy Training Fund, shall be entitled to all moneys generated by the county or city that would otherwise be forwarded to the State Treasurer for deposit in the Fund as provided in § 16.1-69.48:1 and § 17.1-275.
