1 19 demonstrate a good-faith effort to comply with recommendations
1 20 received, or where the agency can demonstrate that the failure
1 21 to achieve substantial progress was due to circumstances which
1 22 were unforeseeable when the agency's performance goals,
1 23 measures, and plans were established.
1 24 2. This section is repealed July 1, 2014.
1 25 EXPLANATION
1 26 This bill provides for the automatic repeal of programs or
1 27 projects funded by a state appropriation which fail to make
1 28 substantial progress toward achieving the goals set out in the
1 29 agency's strategic plan.
1 30 The bill provides that any new program or project
1 31 established by a state agency which commences during the
1 32 fiscal year beginning July 1, 2005, July 1, 2006, July 1,
1 33 2007, July 1, 2008, or July 1, 2009, and which is funded by a
1 34 state appropriation, must be determined by the department of
1 35 management to have made substantial progress after five years
2 1 toward achieving the agency's strategic plan, developed
2 2 pursuant to Code section 8E.207. The bill provides that in
2 3 determining whether substantial progress has been made, the
2 4 department shall review the agency's annual performance
2 5 reports submitted during the five-year period since the
2 6 inception of the program or project, and during that period
2 7 can make recommendations designed to enhance the likelihood
2 8 that substantial progress will be determined to have been
2 9 achieved. The bill provides that the department may grant an
2 10 extension of time where an agency can demonstrate a good-faith
2 11 effort to comply with recommendations received by the agency,
2 12 or where it can be demonstrated that substantial progress was
2 13 not achieved due to unforeseeable circumstances.
2 14 The bill contains a repeal date of July 1, 2014.
