A BILL
To amend sections 126.02 and 126.022 and to enact
section 126.18 of the Revised Code to require
performance budgeting by most state agencies.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF OHIO:
Section 1. That sections 126.02 and 126.022 be amended and
section 126.18 of the Revised Code be enacted to read as follows:
Sec. 126.02. The director of budget and management shall
prepare and submit to the governor, biennially, not later than the
first day of January preceding the convening of the general
assembly, state budget estimates of revenues and expenditures for
each state fund and budget estimates for each state agency, except
such estimates as are required under section 126.022 of the
Revised Code, and, as applicable, the performance data required to
be submitted by state agencies by division (A) of section 126.18
of the Revised Code. The budget estimates for each state agency
for which direct appropriations are proposed shall include the
following details:
(A) Estimates of the operating budget;
(B) Estimates of the subsidy appropriations necessary,
delineated by a distinct subsidy program;
(C) Estimates for special purposes, delineated by a distinct
special purpose program;
(D) Estimates of appropriations necessary from each fund in
reasonable detail to allow for adequate planning and oversight of
programs and activities.
In the preparation of state revenue and expenditure
estimates, the director of budget and management shall, not later
than the fifteenth day of September in the year preceding the
first regular session of the general assembly, distribute to all
affected state agencies the forms necessary for the preparation of
budget requests, which shall be in the form prescribed by the
director in consultation with the legislative service commission
to procure information concerning the revenues and expenditures
for the preceding and current bienniums, an estimate of the
revenues and expenditures of the current fiscal year, and an
estimate of the revenues and proposed expenditures for the
respective agencies for the two succeeding fiscal years for which
appropriations have to be made, and, as applicable, the
performance data required by division (A) of section 126.18 of the
Revised Code. Each such agency shall, not later than the first day
of November, file with the director its estimate of revenues and
proposed expenditures for the succeeding biennium
and, where
required by section 126.18 of the Revised Code, a comprehensive
and integrated statement of agency missions and outcome and
performance measures.
Each such agency shall, not later than the first day of
December, file with the chairperson of the finance committees of
the senate and house of representatives and the legislative
service commission a duplicate copy of such budget request.
The budget request shall be accompanied by a statement in
writing giving facts and explanation of reasons for the items
requested. The director and the legislative service commission may
make further inquiry and investigation as to any item desired. The
director may approve, disapprove, or alter the requests, excepting
those for the legislative and judicial branches of the state. The
requests as revised by the director constitute the state budget
estimates of revenues and expenditures which the director is
required to submit to the governor.
The director shall determine a method to incorporate the
principles of zero-based budgeting into the forms prescribed in
this section.
Sec. 126.022. Not later than four weeks after the general
assembly convenes in each even-numbered year, the director of
budget and management shall prepare and recommend to the general
assembly, subject to the concurrence of the governor, estimates of
revenues from, or derived from, payments to the state under the
tobacco master settlement agreement and, expenditures of such
revenues for the biennium beginning on the following first day of
July, and, as applicable, the performance data required by
division (A) of section 126.18 of the Revised Code. Each state
agency affected by such revenues or expenditures shall submit to
the director of budget and management any related information the
director requires, in such form and at such times as the director
prescribes, and, where required by section 126.18 of the Revised
Code, a comprehensive and integrated statement of agency missions
and outcome and performance measures.
Sec. 126.18. (A) Except for the offices of the attorney
general, auditor of state, governor, secretary of state, and
treasurer of state and agencies of the legislative and judicial
branches, each state agency filing budget requests under section
126.02 of the Revised Code shall, in accordance with the schedule
set forth in division (B) of this section, include with its
requests data that measure the performance of the programs and
activities of the agency in meeting program goals and objectives.
Data reported shall include indicators of output, efficiency,
outcomes, and other measures relevant to each program and
activity. The agency shall also include historical data needed for
an understanding of major trends and shall set targets for future
performance where feasible and appropriate. All such data shall be
presented in a manner that serves to assist legislative review of
and decision making concerning the programs and activities of the
agency.
(B)(1) Division (A) of this section shall apply to the budget
requests of the department of education and the department of job
and family services
beginning with their budget requests for the
biennium ending June 30, 2015.
(2) The director of budget and management shall divide all
other agencies subject to division (A) of this section into the
following three categories:
(a) Agencies to which division (A) shall apply beginning with
their budget requests for the biennium ending June 30, 2015;
(b) Agencies to which division (A) shall apply beginning with
their budget requests for the biennium ending June 30, 2017;
(c) Agencies to which division (A) shall apply beginning with
their budget requests for the biennium ending June 30, 2019.
(C) The director shall provide all agencies subject to
division (A) of this section with substantial technical assistance
in carrying out the requirements of that division and shall review
the appropriateness, validity, and reliability of agency
performance measures and data.
(D) Beginning with the biennium after the biennium in which
the budget requests of the Ohio board of regents first become
subject to division (A) of this section, the board shall offer
assistance to each state university or college as defined in
section 3345.12 of the Revised Code in developing relevant
performance measures for the university's or college's programs
and activities and in setting targets for future performance where
feasible and appropriate.
Section 2. That existing sections 126.02 and 126.022 of the
Revised Code are hereby repealed.
