6 Administrative Code of Illinois is amended by changing
7 Section 50-5 as follows:
8 (15 ILCS 20/50-5) (was 15 ILCS 20/38)
9 Sec. 50-5. Governor to submit State budget. The Governor
10 shall, as soon as possible and not later than the third
11 Wednesday in February of each year beginning in 1998, submit

14 departments, offices, and institutions, and for all other
15 public purposes, the estimated revenues from taxation, the
16 estimated revenues from sources other than taxation, and an
17 estimate of the amount required to be raised by taxation.
18 The amounts recommended by the Governor for appropriation to
19 the respective departments, offices and institutions shall be
20 formulated according to the various functions and activities
21 for which the respective department, office or institution of
22 the State government (including the elective officers in the
-2- LRB9214555JSdvam01
1 executive department and including the University of Illinois
2 and the judicial department) is responsible. The amounts
3 relating to particular functions and activities shall be
4 further formulated in accordance with the object
5 classification specified in Section 13 of the State Finance
6 Act. State budgets submitted for fiscal years 2007 and
7 thereafter must be prepared using the performance measures
8 developed under Section 6.5 of the Bureau of the Budget Act.
9 The Governor shall not propose expenditures and the
10 General Assembly shall not enact appropriations that exceed
11 the resources estimated to be available, as provided in this
12 Section.
13 For the purposes of Article VIII, Section 2 of the 1970
14 Illinois Constitution, the State budget for the following
15 funds shall be prepared on the basis of revenue and
16 expenditure measurement concepts that are in concert with
17 generally accepted accounting principles for governments:
18 (1) General Revenue Fund.
19 (2) Common School Fund.
20 (3) Educational Assistance Fund.
21 (4) Road Fund.
22 (5) Motor Fuel Tax Fund.
23 (6) Agricultural Premium Fund.
24 These funds shall be known as the "budgeted funds". The
25 revenue estimates used in the State budget for the budgeted
26 funds shall include the estimated beginning fund balance,
27 plus revenues estimated to be received during the budgeted
28 year, plus the estimated receipts due the State as of June 30
29 of the budgeted year that are expected to be collected during
30 the lapse period following the budgeted year, minus the
31 receipts collected during the first 2 months of the budgeted
32 year that became due to the State in the year before the
33 budgeted year. Revenues shall also include estimated federal
34 reimbursements associated with the recognition of Section 25
-3- LRB9214555JSdvam01
1 of the State Finance Act liabilities. For any budgeted fund
2 for which current year revenues are anticipated to exceed
3 expenditures, the surplus shall be considered to be a
4 resource available for expenditure in the budgeted fiscal
5 year.
6 Expenditure estimates for the budgeted funds included in
7 the State budget shall include the costs to be incurred by
8 the State for the budgeted year, to be paid in the next
9 fiscal year, excluding costs paid in the budgeted year which
10 were carried over from the prior year, where the payment is
11 authorized by Section 25 of the State Finance Act. For any
12 budgeted fund for which expenditures are expected to exceed
13 revenues in the current fiscal year, the deficit shall be
14 considered as a use of funds in the budgeted fiscal year.
15 Revenues and expenditures shall also include transfers
16 between funds that are based on revenues received or costs
17 incurred during the budget year.
18 By March 15 of each year, the Economic and Fiscal
19 Commission shall prepare revenue and fund transfer estimates
20 in accordance with the requirements of this Section and
21 report those estimates to the General Assembly and the
22 Governor.
23 For all funds other than the budgeted funds, the proposed
24 expenditures shall not exceed funds estimated to be available
25 for the fiscal year as shown in the budget. Appropriation
26 for a fiscal year shall not exceed funds estimated by the
27 General Assembly to be available during that year.

24 2005. The performance measures must be used in preparing and
25 presenting State budgets for fiscal years 2007 and

28 can be associated with program goals and performance
29 measures.
30 (c) The Bureau shall continue the performance management
31 practices being conducted by the Office of the Governor on
32 and before February 28, 2002. These practices include, but

10 publishing the data developed through these performance
11 management practices. The application of these performance
12 management practices shall be extended annually until the
13 budget and performance of all State agencies and programs are
14 evaluated in accordance with these performance management
15 practices.
