Significant
Issues
General fund operating appropriations for most
legislative agencies are contained in House Bill 1, the Feed Bill, of the
second session of the forty-fifth legislature, 2002.
Effective July 1, 2002, nearly every executive
agency will convert to performance-based budgeting. The agencies scheduled to implement performance-based budgeting
in the final year of implementation include all legislative agencies, the
judiciary and the remainder of public school and higher education.
