The performance measures must be used in preparing and 15 presenting State budgets for fiscal years 2007 and 16 thereafter. The performance measures shall be integrated 17 with the budget so that expenditures and other program inputs 18 can be associated with program goals and performance 19 measures. 20 (c) The Bureau shall continue the performance management 21 practices being conducted by the Office of the Governor on 22 and before February 28, 2002. These practices include, but 23 are not limited to: 24 (1) the development of mission statements, goals, 25 and objectives for State agencies and programs; 26 (2) the evaluation of the results and 27 accomplishments of State agencies and programs; and 28 (3) the development of outcome indicators, 29 cost-effectiveness indicators, and external benchmarks 30 for State agencies and programs. 31 The Bureau shall provide the information developed from 32 these performance management practices to the Comptroller and 33 cooperate with the Comptroller in the reporting and 34 publishing the data developed through these performance HB3313 Engrossed -5- LRB093 07683 JLS 07865 b 1 management practices. The application of these performance 2 management practices shall be extended annually until the 3 budget and performance of all State agencies and programs are 4 evaluated in accordance with these performance management 5 practices. 6 (d) As much as possible, the Bureau shall rely on 7 existing reporting forms utilized by direct service providers 8 in collecting data on community based programs and services, 9 rather than creating a new overlay of reports to be required 10 of State agencies and providers. 11 Section 15.
