As the final report on appropriations of the 2006 Legislative Session, this document contains specific information relating to the issues addressed by the Legislature in constructing the FY‐08 budget for the State of Oklahoma. This report contains a host of detailed information pertaining to past and present decisions affecting FY‐08 appropriations. It is hoped that the content and format are presented in a manner that is useful to members of the House, their constituents and the overall appropriations process. A ten‐year appropriation history of each state appropriated agency is included as a final summary for the readers’ review. Each staff member of the Fiscal Division is to be commended for making contributions in preparing information for this report, as well as for their professional and dedicated work throughout the 2007 legislative session. Significant contributions to the appropriations process also were made by Mark Harter of the Legal Division. Special thanks are also deserving of Barbara Porter, Assistant to the Appropriations and Budget Committee and Laurie Nicoll, Legislative Assistant.
