The
Lawton Warns of Delayed 1982 State Tax Refunds
Albany budget director C Mark Lawton warned New Yorkers that refunds from the 1982 state income tax will not be issued until after April 1 1983 to help close a projected 362 million deficit for the current year and a potential 600 million to 1 3 billion shortfall next year. The report ties the deficit to 320 million in added spending approved by the Legislature over Carey vetoes and says a lag payroll plan could save about 130 million. Legislative leaders dispute the revenue outlook urging faster action.

Cuomo backs Careys view of state budget dispute
New York Lt. Gov Mario Cuomo and Mayor Edward Koch, both Democrats seeking the gubernatorial nomination, offered differing takes on New Yorks fiscal health. They responded to Gov Hugh Careys plan to defer income tax refunds due to an expected deficit. Cuomo called the deferral not desirable but possibly necessary, while Koch said he would review the figures himself and did not fully endorse the governors stance.
