PEER Report #121

STATE TRAVEL EXPENSE ACCOUNT ANALYSIS FOR FISCAL YEAR 1981, December 18, 1981, 130 pages

Each of the thirteen tables in this report reflected the 200 state employees or officials with the highest travel expense for each category. The tables listed the state agency or fund title to which the expenses were charged together with the amounts reimbursed. The tables detailed the following expenses:

• Combined in-state and out-of-state travel, all categories
• In-state travel, all categories combined
• In-state mileage
• In-state subsistence
• In-state rented vehicle
• In-state public carrier
• In-state other (miscellaneous)
• Out-of-state travel, all categories combined
• Out-of-state mileage
• Out-of-state subsistence
• Out-of-state rented vehicle
• Out-of-state public carrier
• Out-of-state other (miscellaneous)

The tables did not include several categories of employees and officials. Since the law does not require junior colleges, senior colleges, and a few other agencies to submit expense reimbursement vouchers to the Department of Public Accounts, the tables did not list their employees. The tables also did not include legislative expenses of state legislators because the Department of Public Accounts publishes this information annually.
