(a) In order to effect a net savings in personnel costs paid by colleges and universities, the presidents and chancellors of the various publicly supported colleges and universities may, upon the approval of their respective boards of trustees, negotiate with tenured faculty members of their institutions so that, in order to secure the faculty members' early retirement, special allowances may be paid to them or into retirement plans for their benefit.

(d) The board of trustees of each institution shall report the exact disposition of the special allowances to the Legislative Joint Auditing Committee each year.
