The remaining 60% of the Board's copying costs are attributed to other functions. The Board would absorb the unfunded portion of the cost of the photocopier ($3,700).

Veto by Governor [C-1]: Delete $16,000 GPR and $10,600 PR in 2000-01 to reflect the elimination of the third ombudsman position that would have been created in 2000-01. The veto also deletes $5,300 GPR in 2000-01 from the medical assistance benefits appropriation, although funding for this purpose is budgeted in the appropriation that supports contracts and inter-agency agreements for the administration of the MA program. The fiscal impact on medical assistance is reflected under "Health and Family Services -- Medical Assistance."
