Dolph B riscoe recom men ded an $ 11.6 bill ion budget to the 64th Legislature Wednesday saying it would leave about $1.1 billion to he used for public school finance reform and emergencies. Later, Briscoe’s office said the governor was sticking with his pre diction made earlier in the week that his budget, plus his public school financing program and other emergency request, would still leave about $60 million unspent at the end of the 1976-77 two-year bus iness period. A gubernatorial spokesman said the public school financing program would require about $1 billion more over 1976-77 than is now being spent to support Texas public schools. Briscoe’s two-year budget of $11.6 billion from all sources, in cluding federal grants, includes general revenue fund expenditures of $3 billion, an increase of $902.8 million over the current level of spending. The governor’s budget is almost $1 billion less than the budget re commended by the Legislative Budget Board, a full time Senate- House finance study group. The budget board’s document is normally the basic appropriations bill used in both the Senate and House and from this each house de velops its own state spending bill for debate.
