Wisconsin. Budget Bureau
Variant namesBiographical notes:
The Budget Bureau was created in 1929 to replace the State Board of Public Affairs (WIHV97-A401). The bureau was headed by the Director of the Budget, who reported to the governor and acted as secretary of the Joint Committee on Finance (WIHV86-A304) and of the Emergency Board (WIHV93-A467). The bureau was succeeded by the Dept. of Budget and Accounts (WIHV86-A1724) in 1947.
The Director of the Budget advised the governor and legislature on financial matters, compiled the executive budget, prepared the executive budget bill each biennium, and approved the release of appropriations to state agencies based on quarterly estimates of expenditures. The Budget Bureau made detailed annual audits of the accounts of the State Treasurer, University of Wisconsin, State Teachers Colleges, and institutions under the jurisdiction of the Dept. of Public Welfare, Board of Health, and Dept. of Public Instruction.
