The manner of allocation of such emergency appropriation shall be as follows: the head of the budget unit desiring an allotment of funds from the appropriation shall present such request to the Governor, in such form and with such explanation as he may require, and the Governor may allow or disallow the request at his discretion. No allotment shall be made from this appropriation to a purpose which creates a continuing obligation for the state.
