818.2  Findings.

The states which are parties to this agreement find that existing* extradition procedures are cumbersome, costly and frequently result in unnecessary delay in the extradition of fugitives. They find further that the provisions of the United States Constitution and United States Code relating to extradition are meant to facilitate the return of fugitives; do not prescribe the exclusive means for return of fugitives; and do not prevent the states from establishing other procedures for this purpose.
