Legislative Audit Bureau
December 30, 1999
The Honorable, The Senate:
We perform annual financial audits of WHA Television and Radio, which are public telecommunications entities operated by the University of Wisconsin (UW) - Extension, and the Educational Communication Board (ECB) Radio and Television Networks, which are public telecommunications entities operated by ECB. We have issued our audit reports for WHA Television and the ECB Radio and Television Networks for the period of July 1, 1997 through June 30, 1998. The audit report for WHA Radio will be issued in early 1999.
These annual audits are requested by ECB and the UW-Extension to fulfill audit requirements of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. The Corporation requires audited financial statements of public broadcasting entities and certifications of these entities' non-federal revenue sources in determining future funding levels. The audit reports include no major findings, conclusions, or recommendations.
Copies of the audit reports have been distributed to members of the Joint Legislative Audit Committee and those required by law to receive them. If you are interested in receiving a copy of these reports, please contact our office and request report numbers 98-17, 98-18 and 98-19.
Sincerely,
Janice Mueller
State Auditor

Department of Administration
December 1998
The Honorable, The Senate:
Attached is the Department of Administration's annual report to the Council on Small Business, Veteran-owned and Minority Business Opportunities as required by s.
16.75(4)(a)5, Wis. Stats.
The report evaluates the performance of Wisconsin's small businesses in submitting bids or proposals to the state and identifies the department's initiatives to encourage small, veteran-owned and minority businesses to participate in the state's purchasing program.
The Department of Administration remains strongly committed to working with Wisconsin's small, veteran-owned and minority businesses to increase their competitiveness and participation in the state purchasing program. This commitment is shown by the outreach and assistance activities identified in the report and in the increased share of state dollars ($2 million) awarded to small businesses.
Sincerely,
Mark D. Bugher
Secretary
