To the Honorable, the Legislature:
This report is transmitted as required by sec. 20.002(11)(f), Wis. Stats. (for distribution to the appropriate standing committees under sec. 13.172(3), Wis. Stats.), and confirms that the Department of Administration has found it necessary to exercise the "temporary reallocation of balances" authority provided by this section in order to meet payment responsibilities and cover resulting negative balances during the month of August 2000.
On August 1, 2000 the Wisconsin Health Education Loan Repayment Fund balance was -$1 thousand. This shortfall increased to -$3 thousand on August 2, 2000 and continued into the month of September. As of the date of this letter, it is expected to be resolved soon. This shortfall was due to the timing of revenues.
On August 7, 2000 the University Trust-Income Fund balance was -$186 thousand. This shortfall increased to -$235 thousand on August 9, 2000, and to -$252 thousand on August 10, 2000. This shortfall continued until August 11, 2000 when the balance reached $2.38 million. This shortfall was due to the timing of revenues.
On August 23, 2000 the Common School Income Fund balance was -$5.45 million. This shortfall continued until August 31, 2000 when the balance reached $3.55 million. This shortfall was due to the timing of revenues.
A1002
The Wisconsin Health Education Loan Repayment Fund, University Trust-Income Fund, and Common School Income Fund shortfalls were not in excess of the statutory interfund borrowing limitation and did not exceed the balances of the Funds available for interfund borrowing.
