 9        The Governor  shall  not  propose  expenditures  and  the
10    General  Assembly  shall not enact appropriations that exceed

13        For  the  purposes of Article VIII, Section 2 of the 1970
14    Illinois Constitution, the State  budget  for  the  following
15    funds   shall  be  prepared  on  the  basis  of  revenue  and

 1    of  the State Finance Act liabilities.  For any budgeted fund
 2    for which current year revenues  are  anticipated  to  exceed
 3    expenditures,  the  surplus  shall  be  considered  to  be  a
 4    resource  available  for  expenditure  in the budgeted fiscal
 5    year.
 6        Expenditure estimates for the budgeted funds included  in
 7    the  State  budget  shall include the costs to be incurred by
 8    the State for the budgeted year,  to  be  paid  in  the  next
 9    fiscal  year, excluding costs paid in the budgeted year which
10    were carried over from the prior year, where the  payment  is
11    authorized  by  Section 25 of the State Finance Act.  For any
12    budgeted fund for which expenditures are expected  to  exceed

 1    performance measures for State programs and agencies.
 2        (a)  The  General  Assembly   finds   that   the   public
 3    accountability of State agency programs will be enhanced by:
 4             (1)  making State government more result-oriented;
 5             (2)  increasing  public awareness of the efficacy of
 6        State government programs;
 7             (3)  facilitating informed  decision-making  on  the
 8        allocation of State resources; and
 9             (4)  increasing  public  access  to  information  on

24    2005.  The performance measures must be used in preparing and
25    presenting  State  budgets  for   fiscal   years   2007   and
26    thereafter.   The  performance  measures  shall be integrated
27    with the budget so that expenditures and other program inputs
28    can  be  associated  with  program  goals   and   performance
29    measures.
30        (c)  The Bureau shall continue the performance management
31    practices  being  conducted  by the Office of the Governor on
32    and before February 28, 2002. These  practices  include,  but
33    are not limited to:
34             (1)  the  development  of mission statements, goals,

 4             (3)  the    development   of   outcome   indicators,
 5        cost-effectiveness indicators,  and  external  benchmarks
 6        for State agencies and programs.

10    publishing  the  data  developed  through  these  performance
11    management  practices.  The  application of these performance
12    management practices shall be  extended  annually  until  the
13    budget and performance of all State agencies and programs are
14    evaluated  in  accordance  with  these performance management
15    practices.

16        Section 15. The  State  Comptroller  Act  is  amended  by
17    adding Section 6.05 as follows:

20    practices data.  The Comptroller shall, in  cooperation  with
