After passage on second reading and before its consideration on third reading, every General Appropriations Bill and every Supplemental Appropriations Bill shall must have attached thereto to it a certificate from the Office of State Budget Division of the State Budget and Control Board that the total of the appropriations therein provided in the Bill is not in excess of the estimated total revenue of the State for such purposes, including that revenue which may be provided in the Bill, or in any other bill previously passed by the House for the fiscal year to which the bill is applicable, and if. For purposes of the certificate, revenue not provided for in the Appropriations Bill must be derived from revenue measures enacted at the time the certificate is made. If the Office of State Budget Division cannot give such the certificate, the Speaker shall order the Bill recommitted to the Ways and Means Committee."
