A communication from the Office of the Comptroller (see item 1599-2040 of Section 2B of Chapter 9 of the Acts of 2025) submitting the Paid Prior Year Deficiency Report for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026

This document is a formal communication from the Office of the Comptroller to the state legislature, submitting a financial report on prior year spending deficiencies for the first three quarters of fiscal year 2026. The report details that state departments spent a total of approximately $14.2 million on expenses from previous years, with the money being recovered from their current year budgets regardless of whether their accounts had enough funds at the end of the prior year. It serves as a record of these financial transactions rather than proposing new laws or policy changes.
