In addition to the other purposes for which expenditures may be made from the moneys appropriated from the state general fund or from any special revenue fund, the supreme court may make expenditures to acquire and install a seal of justice in the supreme court courtroom of the judicial center that is designed to be a replica of the seal of justice in the supreme court chamber in the state capitol, which has represented thereon a hand holding the scales of justice and inscriptions reading "Supreme Court" and "State of Kansas" and which is affixed above the entrance behind the former bench for the justices. The supreme court is hereby authorized to accept gifts and donations to pay for the cost of obtaining and installing such seal of justice. All monetary gifts and donations received for this purpose shall be deposited in the state treasury to the credit of the judicial branch gifts fund of the judicial branch. The secretary of administration shall provide such assistance as may be requested by the supreme court for the purposes of acquiring and installing such seal of justice as provided by this section.
