In what year did the government commit 1.22 million to enact many of the 2007 recommendations?

• A. 1998
• B. 2008
• C. 1990
• D. 2010

Answer: (B)

When a major review or set of recommendations is released in one year, governments typically respond by funding implementation in the following budget cycle. The 2007 recommendations would be acted on with resources allocated after that year, so the commitment of 1.22 million to enact many of those recommendations fits best in the next year, 2008. The other years either precede the recommendations or fall later after the initial response, making them less consistent with a direct funding decision tied to the 2007 findings.
