regard to the payment of universal  kindergarten  program  aid  for  the
2011-2012  school  year  to  the  Westfield central school district, the
incorrect statement of unserved pupils in such district included in  the
application  submitted  for  such  aid  by  the Westfield central school
district shall not be  deemed  to  prohibit  and  impede  the  education
department  from  making  payment of such aid for all unserved pupils in

school district files a corrected application for universal kindergarten
program  aid.  The education department shall pay such universal prekin-
dergarten program aid for the 2011-2012 school year from funds appropri-
ated from funds appropriated for prior year claims.
  S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
