Senate Bill 2 – Page 2
Unless otherwise indicated, appropriations from the general fund revert to the general fund at
the end of FY08. Exceptions included higher education institutions and the Public Education
Department.
SIGNIFICANT ISSUES
General fund operating appropriations for legislative agencies are contained in House Bill 1,
the Feed Bill.
Supplemental budget adjustment authority for FY07 or budget adjustment authority for FY08,
usually included in the General Appropriation Act, is not included in this introduced version.
It is expected that such authority will be included in future substitutes or amendments of this
bill.
CONFLICT, DUPLICATION
Senate Bill 2 duplicates House Bill 7 and conflicts with House Bill 2. House Bill 2 represents
the Executive’s recommendations for funding operations of state government.
