Section 9.64. Fiscal notes

(a) Senate.—No bill requiring the expenditure of Commonwealth funds may be given third consideration unless it has been referred to the Appropriations Committee and a fiscal note has been attached thereto.

(b) House.—Each bill, except the general appropriation bill, requiring an expenditure of Commonwealth funds or entailing a loss of revenues must have a fiscal note prepared by the Appropriations Committee, and the bill must be referred to the Appropriations Committee for a fiscal note before it is given second consideration. An amendment to a bill having the same effect cannot be voted upon until the day following the distribution of a fiscal note.
