Source: Revenue Reports by General Accounting Division of Maryland State Comptroller's Office, June 30,1999.

Other licenses and fees increased by $39,028,000 or 13.5% over the previous year primarily due to increases in
revenues from business licenses collected by the Clerks of Courts, increased assessments on insurance companies
to fund the new Division of Consumers' Complaints, and increased fees from court civil cases to fund the new
Maryland Legal Services Corporation Fund for providing civil legal services to indigent clients.

Other revenues increased $30,391,000 or 22.6% over the previous year primarily due to an increase in recoveries
of prior years' Medicaid payments.
