(b) "Grant funds" are any public funds dispensed by a grantor agency to any person or entity for obligation, expenditure, or use by that person or entity for a specific purpose or purposes. Funds disbursed by the State Comptroller pursuant to an appropriation made by the General Assembly to a named entity or person are not grant funds for purposes of this Act.
