The cash positions projections of the General Fund are $209. 1 million higher than reported to you in the October 24, 1994 report. This is due to higher than expected General Fund receipts and lower than expected General Fund Disbursements.
The forecasts below are based on the Budget Adjustment Bill, 1993 ACT 437. They also include the receipt of $350 million from the issuance of the fiscal year 1995 Operating Notes.
