Sincerely,

Secretary of State
State of Wisconsin
Department of Administration
April 30, 1999
The Honorable, The Legislature:
S143
This report is transmitted as required by sec. 20.002(11)(f) of the Wisconsin Statutes, (for distribution to the appropriate standing committees under sec. 13.172(3) 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 March 1999.
On March 16, 1999 the Wisconsin Health Education Loan Repayment Fund balance was -$2 thousand. this shortfall increased to -$3 thousand on March 25, 1999 and continued into the month of April 1999. this shortfall was due to the timing of revenues.
The Wisconsin Health Education Loan Repayment Fund shortfall was not in excess of the statutory interfund borrowing limitation and did not exceed the balances of the Funds available for interfund borrowing.
