Departments are evaluating all services they deliver, using the process set forth in Administrative Order 202. This process includes identification of the intended purpose of all programs, their effectiveness in delivering those results, and the efficiency in which they use public dollars. The goal is to provide a basis upon which reasoned budget decisions may be made that further the goals of my Administration. I look forward to working closely with this Legislature to jointly craft a responsive state budget that efficiently provides Alaska residents essential state services at a cost that the state can afford over the long- term. Sincerely yours, /s/ Frank H. Murkowski Governor A copy of Administrative Order 202 was enclosed.
