(a) Special obligation bonds of the state may be issued pursuant to and subject to the terms, conditions and limitations provided in this part for the purpose of financing the cost of purchasing municipal refunding bonds and the funding or increasing reserves to secure or to pay such bonds and all other costs or expenses of the state incident to or necessary or convenient to carry out the purposes of this part, or of paying, refunding or retiring at maturity or prior to maturity upon redemption or otherwise, any such special obligation bonds issued pursuant to this part and interest thereon.
