New York State Authorities Budget Office

The New York State Authorities Budget Office (ABO) is an independent office in the state of New York established by the Public Authorities Accountability Act of 2005 and signed into law by Governor Pataki in 2006.[1] In 2009, the ABO was restructured as part of the Public Authorities Reform Act.[2]
