The Fund

We are pleased to present this annual report for General California Municipal Money Market Fund, covering the 12-month period from December 1, 2006, through November 30, 2007.
The past few months have been filled with greater swings in security valuations than we’ve seen in several years,as the economic cycle matured and a credit crisis stemming from the sub-prime mortgage sector of the taxable bond market has affected virtually all areas of the financial markets, including, to some extent, money market funds. A high degree of leverage within parts of the financial system made these price fluctuations more intense than they otherwise might have been. In the ensuing “flight to quality” among investors, “liquid asset” investments such as money market funds realized tremendous inflows of assets from investors affected by the heightened volatility and from those simply awaiting a clearer picture by the Fed on the direction of the U.S. economy.
Although we expect slower financial conditions in 2008, lower short-term interest rates from the Fed may help forestall a technical recession. As was widely anticipated, at its December 11 meeting the Fed took action and lowered its overnight rate to 4.25% . Despite this recent rate cut, investors will continue to closely monitor the credit markets and signals by the Fed on the state of the U.S economy in 2008. During times like these, it is a good time to review your portfolio with your financial advisor, who can help you consider whether to reposition your investments for a changing market environment.
For information about how the fund performed during the reporting period, as well as market perspectives, we have provided a Discussion of Fund Performance given by the fund’s Portfolio Manager.
Thank you for your continued confidence and support.

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE
For the period of December 1, 2006, through November 30, 2007, as provided by Joseph Irace, Senior Portfolio Manager
Fund and Market Performance Overview
Yields of tax-exempt money market securities began to decline over the last few months of the reporting period, when the Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”) reduced key short-term interest rates in an attempt to address an intensifying credit crisis and forestall a potential recession.
For the 12-month period ended November 30, 2007, General California Municipal Money Market Fund produced yields of 3.07% for its Class A shares and 2.66% for its Class B shares. Taking into account the effects of compounding, the fund’s Class A and Class B shares produced effective yields of 3.12% and 2.69%, respectively.1
The Fund’s Investment Approach
|
The fund seeks to maximize current income exempt from federal and California state personal income taxes, to the extent consistent with the preservation of capital and the maintenance of liquidity.
In pursuing this objective, we employ two primary strategies. First, we normally attempt to add value by constructing a portfolio of high-quality, municipal money market instruments that provide income exempt from federal and California state personal income taxes. Second, we actively manage the fund’s average maturity based on our anticipation of supply-and-demand changes in the short-term municipal marketplace.
For example, if we expect an increase in short-term supply, we may decrease the average maturity of the fund, which could enable us to take advantage of opportunities when short-term supply increases. Generally, yields tend to rise when there is an increase in new-issue supply competing for investor interest. New securities that are generally issued with maturities in the one-year range may in turn lengthen the fund’s weighted average maturity if purchased. If we anticipate limited new-issue supply, we may then look to extend the fund’s average maturity to maintain then-current yields for as long as we believe practical. In addition, we try to

|
maintain an average maturity that reflects our view of short-term interest-rate trends and future supply-and-demand considerations.
The Fed Eased Monetary Policy Amid Economic and Credit Concerns
For much of the reporting period, the Fed left short-term interest rates unchanged amid mixed economic and inflation signals.As a result, tax-exempt money market yields remained relatively stable through the spring of 2007. However, market conditions changed dramatically over the summer, when credit concerns stemming from rising defaults in the bond market’s sub-prime mortgage sector spread to other areas of the financial markets. Even longer-term municipal bonds, which have no direct exposure to sub-prime lending, were affected by selling pressure during a “flight to quality” in which investors flocked to the relative safe haven of U.S.Treasury securities.
As the credit crisis unfolded, the Fed attempted to promote greater market liquidity in August by reducing the discount rate, the interest rate it charges banks for overnight loans. In September, the Fed reduced the federal funds rate, the interest rate banks charge one another for overnight loans, by a larger-than-expected 50 basis points in order to stimulate the slowing U.S. economy. Another cut in the federal funds rate followed in October, leaving the benchmark overnight rate at 4.50% at the reporting period’s end.
The tax-exempt money markets also were influenced by supply-and-demand forces. Investor demand intensified during the flight to quality, and tax-exempt money market assets set new record highs. Rising demand was met with ample supply, as investment banks continued to create a substantial volume of very short-term variable rate demand notes and tender option bonds, which put upward pressure on yields at the short end of the tax-exempt money market’s maturity range.At times during the reporting period, yields of these floating-rate instruments were higher than those of longer-dated municipal notes.
Although California has felt the impact of weak housing markets, its fiscal condition generally has remained sound, supported by a diverse
economy and efforts over the past few years to increase its budget reserves. However, challenges remain for California, as the housing downturn may reduce future tax revenues at a time when the state is struggling with high levels of long-term debt.
A Conservative Investment Posture Warranted in an Uncertain Market
We generally maintained a conservative investment posture amid heightened market turbulence, focusing whenever possible on municipal instruments issued directly by cities in California, California state, California school districts and other taxing authorities in California. We set the fund’s weighted average maturity in a range that was longer than industry averages as we took advantage of higher yields among commercial paper and municipal notes. Whenever it was practical to do so, we “laddered” the fund’s longer-dated holdings to help protect the fund from unexpected interest-rate fluctuations. As always, our research staff maintained rigorous credit standards, which, in our judgment, became even more important in the recent credit crisis.
As of the reporting period’s end, the Fed appears likely to implement one or more additional reductions in short-term interest rates. We believe that the fund’s relatively long weighted average maturity positions should enable it to capture incrementally higher yields should short-term interest rates decline further.

| | be extended, terminated or modified at any time. Had these expenses not been absorbed, the |

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1—Significant Accounting Policies:
General California Municipal Money Market Fund (the “fund”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as a non-diversified open-end management investment company. The fund’s investment objective is to maximize current income exempt from federal and California state personal income taxes, to the extent consistent with the preservation of capital and the maintenance of liquidity.The Dreyfus Corporation (the “Manager” or “Dreyfus”) serves as the fund’s investment adviser.
On July 1,2007,Mellon Financial Corporation (“Mellon Financial”) and The Bank of New York Company, Inc. merged, forming The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation (“BNY Mellon”). As part of this transaction, Dreyfus became a wholly-owned subsidiary of BNY Mellon.
As of the close of business on March 16, 2007, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization previously approved by the fund’s Board of Trustees, all of the assets, subject to liabilities, of Dreyfus California Tax Exempt Money Market Fund (the “Acquired Fund”) were transferred to the fund in exchange for shares of Beneficial Interest of the fund shares of equal value. Shareholders of the Acquired Fund received Class A shares of the fund, in a amount equal to the aggregate net asset value of their investment in the Acquired Fund at the time of the exchange.The fund’s net asset value on the close of business on March 16, 2007 was $1.00 per share for Class A shares, representing net assets of $151,679,262, and issued to shareholders of the Acquiring Fund in the exchange. The exchange was a tax-free event to Acquired Fund shareholders.
MBSC Securities Corporation (the “Distributor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Manager, is the distributor of the fund’s shares. The fund is authorized to issue an unlimited number of $.001 par value shares of Beneficial Interest in the following classes of shares: Class A shares and Class B shares. Class A shares and Class B shares are identical except for the services offered to and the expenses borne by each class, the allocation of certain transfer agency costs and certain voting rights. Class B shares are subject to a Distribution Plan adopted pursuant to
Rule 12b-1 under the Act and Class A and Class B shares are subject to a Shareholder Services Plan. In addition, Class B shares are charged directly for sub-accounting services provided by Service Agents (a securities dealer, financial institution or other industry professional) at an annual rate of .05% of the value of the average daily net assets of Class B shares. During the period ended November 30, 2007, sub-accounting service fees amounted to $44,916 for Class B shares and are included in shareholder servicing costs. Income, expenses (other than expenses attributable to a specific class), and realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.
It is the fund’s policy to maintain a continuous net asset value per share of $1.00; the fund has adopted certain investment, portfolio valuation and dividend and distribution policies to enable it to do so.There is no assurance, however, that the fund will be able to maintain a stable net asset value per share of $1.00.
The fund’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which may require the use of management estimates and assumptions. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. The fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown.The fund does not anticipate recognizing any loss related to these arrangements.
(a) Portfolio valuation: Investments in securities are valued at amortized cost in accordance with Rule 2a-7 of the Act, which has been determined by the fund’s Board of Trustees to represent the fair value of the fund’s investments.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) released Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 establishes an authoritative definition of fair
The Fund 27
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
|
value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value, and requires additional disclosures about fair-value measurements.The application of FAS 157 is required for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Management does not believe that the application of this standard will have a material impact on the financial statements of the fund.
(b) Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Interest income, adjusted for accretion of discount and amortization of premium on investments, is earned from settlement date and recognized on the accrual basis. Cost of investments represents amortized cost.
The fund has an arrangement with the custodian bank whereby the fund receives earnings credits from the custodian when positive cash balances are maintained, which are used to offset custody fees. For financial reporting purposes, the fund includes net earnings credits, if any, as an expense offset in the Statement of Operations.
The fund follows an investment policy of investing primarily in municipal obligations of one state. Economic changes affecting the state and certain of its public bodies and municipalities may affect the ability of issuers within the state to pay interest on, or repay principal of, municipal obligations held by the fund.
(c) Dividends to shareholders: It is the policy of the fund to declare dividends daily from investment income-net. Such dividends are paid monthly. Dividends from net realized capital gains, if any, are normally declared and paid annually, but the fund may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).To the extent that net realized capital gains can be offset by capital loss carryovers, it is the policy of the fund not to distribute such gains.
(d) Federal income taxes: It is the policy of the fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company, which can distribute tax exempt
dividends, by complying with the applicable provisions of the Code, and to make distributions of income and net realized capital gain sufficient to relieve it from substantially all federal income and excise taxes.
The FASB released FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (FIN 48). FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority.Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year.Adoption of FIN 48 is required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and is to be applied to all open tax years as of the effective date. Management does not believe that the application of this standard will have a material impact on the financial statements of the fund.
At November 30, 2007, the components of accumulated earnings on a tax basis were substantially the same as for financial reporting purposes.
The tax characters of distributions paid to shareholders during the fiscal periods ended November 30, 2007 and November 30, 2006, were all tax exempt income.
During the period ended November 30, 2007, as a result of permanent book to tax differences primarily from utilization of deemed distributions for tax purposes not book, the fund decreased accumulated net realized gain (loss) on investments by $289,885 and increased paid-in capital by the same amount. Net assets and net asset value per share were not affected by this reclassification.
At November 30, 2007, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was substantially the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes (see the Statement of Investments).
The Fund 29

NOTE 2—Management Fee and Other Transactions With Affiliates:
(a) Pursuant to a management agreement (“Agreement”) with the Manager, the management fee is computed at the annual rate of .50% of the value of the fund’s average daily net assets and is payable monthly. The Agreement provides that if in any full fiscal year the aggregate expenses, exclusive of taxes, brokerage fees, interest on borrowings and extraordinary expenses, exceed 1 1 / 2% of the value of the fund’s average daily net assets, the fund may deduct from payments to be made to the Manager, or the Manager will bear such excess expense. During the period ended November 30, 2007, there was no expense reimbursement pursuant to the Agreement.
(b) Under the Distribution Plan with respect to Class B shares (“Distribution Plan”), adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Act, Class B shares bear directly the cost of preparing, printing and distributing prospectuses and statements of additional information and of implementing and operating the Distribution Plan, such aggregate amount not to exceed in any fiscal year of the fund, the greater of $100,000 or .005% of the average daily net assets of Class B shares. In addition, Class B shares reimburse the Distributor for payments made to third parties for distributing shares at an annual rate not to exceed .20% of the value of the average daily net assets of Class B shares. During the period ended November 30, 2007, Class B shares were charged $182,604, pursuant to the Distribution Plan.
(c) Under the Shareholder Services Plan with respect to Class A (“Class A Shareholder Services Plan”), Class A shares reimburse the Distributor an amount not to exceed an annual rate of .25% of the value of the average daily net assets of Class A shares for certain allocated expenses of providing personal services and/or maintaining shareholder accounts.The services provided may include personal services relating to shareholder accounts, such as answering shareholder inquiries regarding Class A shares and providing reports and other information, and services related
to the maintenance of shareholder accounts. During the period ended November 30, 2007, Class A shares were charged $123,909 pursuant to the Class A Shareholder Services Plan.
Under the Shareholder Services Plan with respect to Class B (“Class B Shareholder Services Plan”), Class B shares pay the Distributor at an annual rate of .25% of the value of the average daily net assets of Class B shares for servicing shareholder accounts.The services provided may include personal services relating to shareholder accounts, such as answering shareholder inquiries regarding Class B shares and providing reports and other information, and services related to the maintenance of shareholder accounts. The Distributor may make payments to Service Agents in respect of their services.The Distributor determines the amounts to be paid to Service Agents.
The Manager had undertaken from December 1, 2006 through November 30, 2007 to reduce the expenses of the Class B shares, if the aggregate expenses of Class B shares, exclusive of taxes, brokerage fees, interest on borrowings and extraordinary expenses, exceed an annual rate of 1% of the value of the average daily net assets of Class B shares. Such expense limitations are voluntary, temporary and may be revised or terminated at any time. During the period ended November 30, 2007, Class B shares were charged $224,581 pursuant to the Class B Shareholder Services Plan, of which $40,375, was reimbursed by the Manager.
The fund compensates Dreyfus Transfer, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Manager, under a transfer agency agreement for providing personnel and facilities to perform transfer agency services for the fund. During the period ended November 30, 2007, the fund was charged $52,892 pursuant to the transfer agency agreement.
Effective July 1, 2007, the fund’s custodian, The Bank of New York, became an affiliate of the Manager. Under the fund’s pre-existing custody agreement with The Bank of New York, the fund was charged $33,946 for providing custodial services for the fund for the five

months ended November 30, 2007. Prior to becoming an affiliate,The Bank of New York was paid $9,580 for custody services to the fund for the seven months ended June 30, 2007.
During the period ended November 30, 2007, the fund was charged $4,740 for services performed by the Chief Compliance Officer.
The components of “Due to The Dreyfus Corporation and affiliates” in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities consist of: management fees $252,780, Rule 12b-1 distribution plan fees $15,662, shareholder services plan fees $23,493, custodian fees $5,061 transfer agency per account fees $9,760 and chief compliance officer fees $3,214, which are offset against an expense reimbursement currently in effect in the amount of $3,500.
(d) Each Board member also serves as a Board member of other funds within the Dreyfus complex. Annual retainer fees and attendance fees are allocated to each fund based on net assets.
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Shareholders and Board of Trustees
General California Municipal Money Market Fund
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of General California Municipal Money Market Fund, including the statement of investments, as of November 30, 2007, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and financial highlights for each of the years indicated therein.These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of November 30, 2007 by correspondence with the custodian and others.We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of General California Municipal Money Market Fund at November 30, 2007, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the indicated years, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

IMPORTANT TAX INFORMATION (Unaudited)

INFORMATION ABOUT THE REVIEW AND APPROVAL OF THE FUND’S MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT (Unaudited)
|
At a meeting of the Board of Trustees held on July 24, 2007, the Board considered the re-approval for an annual period of the fund’s Management Agreement, pursuant to which the Manager provides the fund with investment advisory and administrative services. The Board members, none of whom are “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of the fund, were assisted in their review by independent legal counsel and met with counsel in executive session separate from representatives of the Manager.
Analysis of Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services Provided to the Fund. The Board members received a presentation from representatives of the Manager regarding services provided to the fund and other funds in the Dreyfus fund complex, and discussed the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided to the fund pursuant to its Management Agreement.The Manager’s representatives reviewed the fund’s distribution of accounts and the relationships the Manager has with various intermediaries and the different needs of each. The Board noted that the fund’s shares are sold primarily through institutional channels and often serve as a “sweep vehicle” for use by third party broker-dealers for their customers. The Manager’s representatives noted the diversity of distribution of the fund as well as among the funds in the Dreyfus fund complex generally, and the Manager’s corresponding need for broad, deep, and diverse resources to be able to provide ongoing shareholder services in each distribution channel, including those of the fund.The Board also reviewed the number of shareholder accounts in the fund, as well as the fund’s asset size.
The Board members also considered the Manager’s research and portfolio management capabilities and that the Manager also provides oversight of day-to-day fund operations, including fund accounting and administration and assistance in meeting legal and regulatory requirements. The Board members also considered the Manager’s extensive administrative, accounting, and compliance infrastructure.

Comparative Analysis of the Fund’s Performance, Management Fee and Expense Ratio. The Board members reviewed reports prepared by Lipper, Inc., an independent provider of investment company data, comparing the fund’s performance to a group of comparable funds (the “Performance Group”) and to broader group of funds (the “Performance Universe”), selected by Lipper.The Board members had been provided with a description of the methodology Lipper used to select the Performance Group and Performance Universe, as well as the Expense Group and Expense Universe (discussed below). The Board members noted that the fund’s performance for various periods ended May 31, 2007 was higher than the Performance Group median for each reported time period, and higher than the Performance Universe median for each reported time period except the ten-year period, when it was slightly lower.
The Board members also discussed the fund’s management fee and expense ratio as compared to a comparable group of funds (the “Expense Group”) that was composed of the same funds included in the Performance Group and a broader group of funds (the “Expense Universe”), each selected and provided by Lipper. The Board noted that the fund’s management fee was higher than the Expense Group and Expense Universe medians, and that the fund’s total expense ratio was lower than the Expense Group median, but slightly higher than the Expense Universe median.
Representatives of the Manager reviewed with the Board members the fees paid to the Manager or its affiliates by the one mutual fund managed by the Manager or its affiliates with similar investment objectives, policies, and strategies, and included in the same Lipper category, as the fund (the “Similar Fund”).The Board members considered the relevance of the fee information provided for the Similar Fund to evaluate the appropriateness and reasonableness of the fund’s management fee. Representatives of the Manager informed the Board members that
there were no separate accounts or wrap fee accounts managed by the Manager or its affiliates with similar investment objectives, policies, and strategies as the fund.
Analysis of Profitability and Economies of Scale. The Manager’s representatives reviewed the dollar amount of expenses allocated and profit received by the Manager and the method used to determine such expenses and profit. The Board members previously had been provided with information prepared by an independent consulting firm regarding the Manager’s approach to allocating costs to, and determining the profitability of, individual funds and the entire Dreyfus mutual fund complex. The Board members also had been informed that the methodology had also been reviewed by an independent registered public accounting firm which, like the consultant, found the methodology to be reasonable.The consulting firm also analyzed where any economies of scale might emerge in connection with the management of a fund. The Board members evaluated the profitability analysis in light of the relevant circumstances for the fund and the extent to which economies of scale would be realized if the fund grows and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of fund shareholders. The Board members also considered potential benefits to the Manager and its affiliates acting as investment adviser to the fund and noted that there were no soft dollar arrangements with respect to trading the fund’s portfolio.
It was noted that the Board members should consider the Manager’s profitability with respect to the fund as part of their evaluation of whether the fee under the Management Agreement bears a reasonable relationship to the mix of services provided by the Manager, including the nature, extent, and quality of such services and that a discussion of economies of scale is predicated on increasing assets and that, if the fund’s assets had been decreasing, the possibility that the Manager may

|
have realized any economies of scale would be less.The Board members also discussed the profitability percentages determined by appropriate court cases to be reasonable given the services rendered to investment companies. It was noted that the profitability percentage for managing the fund was not unreasonable given the services provided.
At the conclusion of these discussions, the Board agreed that it had been furnished with sufficient information to make an informed business decision with respect to continuation of the fund’s Management Agreement. Based on the discussions and considerations as described above, the Board made the following conclusions and determinations.
- The Board concluded that the nature,extent,and quality of the services provided by the Manager to the fund are adequate and appropriate.
- The Board was satisfied with the fund’s performance.
- The Board concluded that the fee paid to the Manager by the fund was reasonable in light of the services provided, comparative perfor- mance and expense and management fee information, costs of the services provided and profits to be realized and benefits derived or to be derived by the Manager from its relationship with the fund.
- The Board determined that the economies of scale which may accrue to the Manager and its affiliates in connection with the management of the fund had been adequately considered by the Manager in con- nection with the management fee rate charged to the fund and that, to the extent in the future it were to be determined that material economies of scale had not been shared with the fund, the Board would seek to have those economies of scale shared with the fund.
The Board members considered these conclusions and determinations, along with the information received on a routine and regular basis throughout the year, and, without any one factor being dispositive, the Board determined that re-approval of the fund’s Management Agreement was in the best interests of the fund and its shareholders.

The Registrant has adopted a code of ethics that applies to the Registrant's principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. There have been no amendments to, or waivers in connection with, the Code of Ethics during the period covered by this Report.
Item 3. | | Audit Committee Financial Expert. |
The Registrant's Board has determined that Joseph S. DiMartino, a member of the Audit Committee of the Board, is an audit committee financial expert as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Mr. DiMartino is "independent" as defined by the SEC for purposes of audit committee financial expert determinations.
Item 4. | | Principal Accountant Fees and Services |
(a) Audit Fees. The aggregate fees billed for each of the last two fiscal years (the "Reporting Periods") for professional services rendered by the Registrant's principal accountant (the "Auditor") for the audit of the Registrant's annual financial statements, or services that are normally provided by the Auditor in connection with the statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for the Reporting Periods, were $32,669 in 2006 and $32,669 in 2007.
(b) Audit-Related Fees. The aggregate fees billed in the Reporting Periods for assurance and related services by the Auditor that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit of the Registrant's financial statements and are not reported under paragraph (a) of this Item 4 were $0 in 2006 and $0 in 2007.
The aggregate fees billed in the Reporting Periods for non-audit assurance and related services by the Auditor to the Registrant's investment adviser (not including any sub-investment adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the Registrant ("Service Affiliates"), that were reasonably related to the performance of the annual audit of the Service Affiliate, which required pre-approval by the Audit Committee were $0 in 2006 and $0 in 2007.
Note: For the second paragraph in each of (b) through (d) of this Item 4, certain of such services were not pre-approved prior to May 6, 2003, when such services were required to be pre-approved. On and after May 6, 2003, 100% of all services provided by the Auditor were pre-approved as required. For comparative purposes, the fees shown assume that all such services were pre-approved, including services that were not pre-approved prior to the compliance date of the pre-approval requirement.
(c) Tax Fees. The aggregate fees billed in the Reporting Periods for professional services rendered by the Auditor for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning ("Tax Services") were $3,347 in 2006 and $2,541 in 2007. These services consisted of (i) review or preparation of U.S. federal, state, local and excise tax returns; (ii) U.S. federal, state and local tax planning, advice and assistance regarding statutory, regulatory or administrative developments, (iii) tax advice regarding tax qualification matters and/or treatment of various
-2-
financial instruments held or proposed to be acquired or held, and (iv) determination of Passive Foreign Investment Companies (as applicable).
The aggregate fees billed in the Reporting Periods for Tax Services by the Auditor to Service Affiliates which required pre-approval by the Audit Committee were $0 in 2006 and $0 in 2007.
(d) All Other Fees. The aggregate fees billed in the Reporting Periods for products and services provided by the Auditor, other than the services reported in paragraphs (a) through (c) of this Item, were $232 in 2006 and $0 in 2007. These services consisted of a review of the Registrant's anti-money laundering program.
The aggregate fees billed in the Reporting Periods for Non-Audit Services by the Auditor to Service Affiliates, other than the services reported in paragraphs (b) through (c) of this Item, which required pre-approval by the Audit Committee were $0 in 2006 and $0 in 2007.
Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures. The Registrant's Audit Committee has established policies and procedures (the "Policy") for pre-approval (within specified fee limits) of the Auditor's engagements for non-audit services to the Registrant and Service Affiliates without specific case-by-case consideration. Pre-approval considerations include whether the proposed services are compatible with maintaining the Auditor's independence. Pre-approvals pursuant to the Policy are considered annually.
Non-Audit Fees. The aggregate non-audit fees billed by the Auditor for services rendered to the Registrant, and rendered to Service Affiliates, for the Reporting Periods were $375,571in 2006 and $1,890,737 in 2007.
Auditor Independence. The Registrant's Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to Service Affiliates which were not pre-approved (not requiring pre-approval) is compatible with maintaining the Auditor's independence.

Exhibit (a)(1)
| THE DREYFUS FAMILY OF FUNDS CODE OF ETHICS FOR PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE AND SENIOR FINANCIAL OFFICERS
|
1. Covered Officers/Purpose of the Code
This code of ethics (the "Code") for the investment companies within the complex (each, a "Fund") applies to each Fund's Principal Executive Officer, Principal Financial Officer, Principal Accounting Officer or Controller, or other persons performing similar functions, each of whom is listed on Exhibit A (the "Covered Officers"), for the purpose of promoting:
- honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;
- full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the Fund files with, or submits to, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and in other public communications made by the Fund;
- compliance with applicable laws and governmental rules and regulations;
- the prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code to an appropriate person or persons identified in the Code; and
- accountability for adherence to the Code.
Each Covered Officer should adhere to a high standard of business ethics and should be sensitive to situations that may give rise to actual as well as apparent conflicts of interest.
2. Covered Officers Should Handle Ethically Actual and Apparent Conflicts of Interest
Overview. A "conflict of interest" occurs when a Covered Officer's private interest interferes with the interests of, or his service to, the Fund. For example, a conflict of interest would arise if a Covered Officer, or a member of his family, receives improper personal benefits as a result of his position with the Fund.
Certain conflicts of interest arise out of the relationships between Covered Officers and the Fund and already are subject to conflict of interest provisions in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act"), and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Advisers Act"). For example, Covered Officers may not individually engage in certain transactions (such as the purchase or sale of securities or other property) with the Fund because of their status as "affiliated persons" of the Fund. The compliance programs and procedures of the Fund and the Fund's investment adviser (the "Adviser") are designed to prevent, or identify and correct, violations of these provisions. The Code does not, and is not intended to, repeat or replace these programs and procedures, and the circumstances they cover fall outside of the parameters of the Code.
Although typically not presenting an opportunity for improper personal benefit, conflicts arise from, or as a result of, the contractual relationship between the Fund and the Adviser of
which the Covered Officers are also officers or employees. As a result, the Code recognizes that the Covered Officers, in the ordinary course of their duties (whether formally for the Fund or for the Adviser, or for both), will be involved in establishing policies and implementing decisions that will have different effects on the Adviser and the Fund. The participation of the Covered Officers in such activities is inherent in the contractual relationship between the Fund and the Adviser and is consistent with the performance by the Covered Officers of their duties as officers of the Fund and, if addressed in conformity with the provisions of the Investment Company Act and the Investment Advisers Act, will be deemed to have been handled ethically. In addition, it is recognized by the Fund's Board that the Covered Officers also may be officers or employees of one or more other investment companies covered by this or other codes of ethics.
Other conflicts of interest are covered by the Code, even if such conflicts of interest are not subject to provisions in the Investment Company Act and the Investment Advisers Act. Covered Officers should keep in mind that the Code cannot enumerate every possible scenario. The overarching principle of the Code is that the personal interest of a Covered Officer should not be placed improperly before the interest of the Fund.
| Each Covered Officer must:
|
- not use his personal influence or personal relationships improperly to influence investment decisions or financial reporting by the Fund whereby the Covered Officer would benefit personally to the detriment of the Fund;
- not cause the Fund to take action, or fail to take action, for the individual personal benefit of the Covered Officer rather than the benefit of the Fund; and
- not retaliate against any employee or Covered Officer for reports of potential violations that are made in good faith.
3. Disclosure and Compliance
- Each Covered Officer should familiarize himself with the disclosure requirements generally applicable to the Fund within his area of responsibility;
- each Covered Officer should not knowingly misrepresent, or cause others to misrepresent, facts about the Fund to others, whether within or outside the Fund, including to the Fund's Board members and auditors, and to governmental regulators and self-regulatory organizations;
- each Covered Officer should, to the extent appropriate within his area of responsibility, consult with other officers and employees of the Fund and the Adviser with the goal of promoting full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in the reports and documents the Fund files with, or submits to, the SEC and in other public communications made by the Fund; and
- it is the responsibility of each Covered Officer to promote compliance with the standards and restrictions imposed by applicable laws, rules and regulations.
4. Reporting and Accountability Each Covered Officer must:
|
- upon adoption of the Code (or thereafter, as applicable, upon becoming a Covered Officer), affirm in writing to the Board that he has received, read, and understands the Code;
- annually thereafter affirm to the Board that he has complied with the requirements of the Code; and
- notify the Adviser's General Counsel (the "General Counsel") promptly if he knows of any violation of the Code. Failure to do so is itself a violation of the Code.
The General Counsel is responsible for applying the Code to specific situations in which questions are presented under it and has the authority to interpret the Code in any particular situation. However, waivers sought by any Covered Officer will be considered by the Fund's Board.
The Fund will follow these procedures in investigating and enforcing the Code:
- the General Counsel will take all appropriate action to investigate any potential violations reported to him;
- if, after such investigation, the General Counsel believes that no violation has occurred, the General Counsel is not required to take any further action;
- any matter that the General Counsel believes is a violation will be reported to the Board;
- if the Board concurs that a violation has occurred, it will consider appropriate action, which may include: review of, and appropriate modifications to, applicable policies and procedures; notification to appropriate personnel of the Adviser or its board; or dismissal of the Covered Officer;
- the Board will be responsible for granting waivers, as appropriate; and
- any waivers of or amendments to the Code, to the extent required, will be disclosed as provided by SEC rules.
5. Other Policies and Procedures
|
The Code shall be the sole code of ethics adopted by the Fund for purposes of Section 406 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the rules and forms applicable to registered investment companies thereunder. The Fund's, its principal underwriter's and the Adviser's codes of ethics under Rule 17j-1 under the Investment Company Act and the Adviser's additional policies and procedures, including its Code of Conduct, are separate requirements applying to the Covered Officers and others, and are not part of the Code.
6. Amendments
The Code may not be amended except in written form, which is specifically approved or ratified by a majority vote of the Fund's Board, including a majority of independent Board members.
7. Confidentiality
All reports and records prepared or maintained pursuant to the Code will be considered confidential and shall be maintained and protected accordingly. Except as otherwise required by law or the Code, such matters shall not be disclosed to anyone other than the appropriate Funds and their counsel, the appropriate Boards (or Committees) and their counsel and the Adviser.
The Code is intended solely for the internal use by the Fund and does not constitute an admission, by or on behalf of the Fund, as to any fact, circumstance, or legal conclusion.
