  • Electronic Adjudication Management System-The Governor's Budget provides $19.1 million (Workers' Compensation Administration Revolving Fund), which includes a reappropriation of $6.7 million from 2006-07, to support the revised project costs for the new paperless case management and automated calendaring system for the Division of Workers' Compensation in the Department of Industrial Relations (DIR).
  • Tax Sharing Ratio Change-The Governor's Budget includes $13.5 million General Fund and a corresponding decrease of $13.5 million from various special funds. This adjustment will properly align the EDD's costs for collecting various employment taxes.
