  the maturity of such bonds, notes or other obligations of the authority,
  monies in an amount which (together with any  other  monies  irrevocably
  committed  to  the  payment  of  principal of or interest on such bonds,
  notes or other obligations) will be sufficient to pay the  principal  of
  such  bonds,  notes  or  other  obligations  with  interest  thereon  to

  projects for which the bonds, notes or other obligations are issued, and

  municipalities, governments, and public corporations of this state,  for
  any  purpose for which the deposit of bonds or other obligations of this
  state is now or may be hereafter authorized or required.
