Ongoing

1.
The
general
assembly
finds
that
a
regular
review
of
24
the
programs
and
projects
administered
by
state
government
is
25
necessary
to
determine
whether
each
program
and
project
is
26
effectively
and
efficiently
meeting
the
needs
for
which
created
27
and
whether
the
needs
remain
applicable.
The
general
assembly
28
further
finds
that
a
regular,
systematic
review
process
can
29
identify
the
programs
and
projects
that
are
no
longer
relevant
30
or
functioning
at
a
desirable
level
and
can
eliminate
or
31
reorganize
those
programs
and
projects
so
that
state
resources
32
can
be
used
most
effectively
or
diverted
to
other
priorities.
