The
general
assembly
finds
that
a
regular
review
of
12
the
programs
and
projects
administered
by
state
government
is
13
necessary
to
determine
whether
each

project
is
14
effectively
and
efficiently
meeting
the
needs
for
which
created
15
and
whether
the
needs
remain
applicable.
The
general
assembly
16
further
finds
that
a
regular,
systematic
review
process
can
17
identify
the
programs
and
projects
that
are
no
longer
relevant
18
or
functioning
at
a
desirable
level
and
can
eliminate
or
19
reorganize
those
programs
and

so
that
state
resources
20
can
be
used
most
effectively
or
diverted
to
other
priorities.

for

providing
a
staggered

for
establishing

for
each
program
or

administered
26
by
a
department
of

government
over
the

The

the

29
in
formulating
