 2    by changing Section 38.
 3        Be  it  enacted  by  the People of the State of Illinois,
 4    represented in the General Assembly:
 5        Section 5.  The Civil Administrative Code of Illinois  is
 6    amended by changing Section 38 as follows:
 7        (15 ILCS 20/38) (from Ch. 127, par. 38)
 8        Sec.  38. The Governor shall, as soon as possible and not
 9    later than April 7, 1992, and the first Wednesday in March of
10    each year  through  1997,  and  on  the  third  Wednesday  in
11    February  of  each  year  beginning  in  1998, submit a State
12    budget, embracing therein the amounts recommended by  him  to
13    be  appropriated  to the respective departments, offices, and
14    institutions,  and  for  all  other  public   purposes,   the
15    estimated revenues from taxation, the estimated revenues from
16    sources  other  than  taxation, and an estimate of the amount
17    required to be raised by taxation.  The  amounts  recommended
18    by   the   Governor   for  appropriation  to  the  respective
19    departments, offices and  institutions  shall  be  formulated
20    according  to  the various functions and activities for which
21    the respective department, office or institution of the State
22    government (including the elective officers in the  executive
23    department  and  including the University of Illinois and the
24    judicial department) is responsible. The amounts relating  to
25    particular   functions   and   activities  shall  be  further
26    formulated  in  accordance  with  the  object  classification
27    specified in Section 13 of the State Finance Act.
28        For the purpose of this Section, a balanced budget  shall
29    mean  a  budget  for  which  the proposed expenditures do not
30    exceed funds estimated to be available for the fiscal year as
31    required by Article VIII, Section 2 of  the  Constitution  of
SB0076 Engrossed            -2-                LRB9001486WHks
 1    the  State  of  Illinois.  A  balanced  budget  must  include
 2    estimated  resources available for the budgeted year that are
 3    at least equal to the proposed use of such resources for  the
 4    budgeted year, determined as provided in this Section.
 5        The Governor's State budget proposal shall be prepared on
 6    the  basis  of  revenue  and expenditure measurement concepts
 7    that  are  in  concert  with  generally  accepted  accounting
 8    principles for governments.
 9        The revenue estimates used in the budget  proposal  shall
10    include  the  revenues  estimated  to  be received during the
11    budgeted year, plus the estimated receipts due the  State  as
12    of  June  30  of  the  budgeted  year that are expected to be
13    collected during the  lapse  period  following  the  budgeted
14    year,  minus the receipts collected during the first 2 months
15    of the budgeted year that became due to the State in the year
16    before the budgeted year.  For any budgeted  fund  for  which
17    revenues  are  anticipated to exceed expenditures (determined
18    in accordance with this Section and including the most recent
19    audited fund balance prepared in  accordance  with  generally
20    accepted  accounting  principles) in the current fiscal year,
21    the  surplus shall be considered as a resource available  for
22    expenditure in the budgeted year.
23        Expenditure  estimates  included in the Governor's budget
24    submission recommended to be subject to appropriations  shall
25    include  the  costs  to  be  incurred  by  the  State for the
26    budgeted year regardless of the  fiscal  year  in  which  the
27    liability  is  discharged.   For  any budgeted fund for which
28    expenditures are expected to exceed revenues  (determined  in
29    accordance  with  this  Section and including the most recent
30    audited fund balance prepared in  accordance  with  generally
31    accepted  accounting  principles) in the current fiscal year,
32    the deficit shall be considered as a  use  of  funds  in  the
33    budgeted year.
34        Revenues  and  expenditures  shall also include transfers

 1    between funds that are based on revenues  received  or  costs
 2    incurred  during  the budget year.  Such transfers shall also
 3    include  those   that,   by   statutory   or   administrative
 4    scheduling, are not transferred until the subsequent year.
 5        By  April  15 of each year, the Auditor General shall (i)
 6    determine whether the expenditure and revenue  estimates  and
 7    fund   transfers  that  have  been  included  in  the  budget
 8    submitted by  the  Governor  under  this  Section  reasonably
 9    satisfy the requirements of this Section and (ii) report this
10    determination  to  the  General  Assembly  and  the Governor,
11    together with any recommendations that  the  Auditor  General
12    may have for improving those estimates or transfers in future
13    budget submissions.
