What the document says
“The Fund shall be available to the Commission, without further appropriation or fiscal year limitation, for paying awards to whistleblowers as provided in subsection (b).”
The section rewrites section 21F(g)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78u-6(g)(2)) so that the Fund is available to the Commission, without further appropriation or fiscal year limitation, for paying whistleblower awards as provided in subsection (b).
What the document actually says
“The Fund shall be available to the Commission, without further appropriation or fiscal year limitation, for paying awards to whistleblowers as provided in subsection (b).”
That sentence, in plain words
The fund stays open to the Commission. It does not need a fresh grant from Congress. It is not tied to one budget year. It pays awards to whistleblowers.
What this is about
A whistleblower is someone who reports wrongdoing. The awards reward that. This is a different fund from the one being closed.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

How to Read This Page
The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, checked against the page
number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary,
not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the
quotation rather than replacing it.
