Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Introduction
This bill is the "executive budget bill" under section 16.47 (1) of the statutes.
It contains the governor's recommendations for appropriations from the general
fund and from segregated funds for the 1995-97 fiscal biennium.
The bill repeals and recreates the appropriation schedule in chapter 20 of the
statutes, thereby setting the appropriation levels for the 1995-97 fiscal biennium.
With minor exceptions, the bill does not affect appropriations for the department of
transportation. The bill also excludes capital budget recommendations. The
descriptions that follow relate to the most significant changes in the law proposed
in the bill. In most cases, changes in the amounts of existing spending authority and
changes in the amounts of bonding authority under existing bonding programs are
not discussed.
For the fiscal impact of this bill refer to the publication Budget in Brief issued
by the department of administration.
For additional information concerning this bill, see the department of
administration's executive budget books, the legislative fiscal bureau's summary
document and the legislative reference bureau's drafting files that contain separate
drafts on each policy item. In most cases, the policy item drafts contain a more
detailed analysis than is printed with this bill.

Guide to nonstatutory material
As is the case for all other bills, the Sections of the budget bill treating statutory
material are displayed in the ascending numerical sequence of the statute units
affected. In some parts of the bill, not all consecutive Section numbers are used.
Treatments of prior session laws (styled "[year] Wisconsin Act ...." or, before
1983, "laws of [year], chapter ....") are displayed next by year of original enactment
and by act number.
Following the treatment of prior session laws, the remaining nonstatutory
material is set forth in bill Sections numbered as follows:
9101 to 9159: Nonstatutory provisions; agency name.
9201 to 9259: Appropriation changes; agency name.
9301 to 9359: Initial applicability; agency name.
9400 to 9459: Effective dates; agency name.
In each of the 4 categories, there is a separate Section number for every agency.
In that number, the last 2 digits correspond to the agencies as shown below. For
example, for nonstatutory provisions that are not appropriation changes or initial
applicability or effective date provisions affecting the historical society, see Section
9128. The agencies are listed in alphabetical sequence by key word. For any agency
not yet assigned a 2-digit identification number or any provision that does not relate
to the functions of any particular agency, see number "59" (other) in each category.
