| HOUSE JOINT RESOLUTION
|
2 |
| WHEREAS, The 2005 budget book identifies 94 individual |
3 |
| State agencies that administer a large number of programs to |
4 |
| serve the citizens of Illinois; and
|
5 |
| WHEREAS, A February 1995 study completed by the Office of |
6 |
| the Auditor General of administrative laws found that agencies |
7 |
| reported 213 statutory requirements that were duplicative with |
8 |
| another requirement; and
|
9 |
| WHEREAS, There is no continuing review of State programs to |
10 |
| identify those that may be duplicative; and
|
11 |
| WHEREAS, Given the need to increase the efficiency and |
12 |
| effectiveness of State government in difficult budgetary |
13 |
| times, a review of State agency programs that may be |
14 |
| duplicative of another agency's program is desirable; |
15 |
| therefore, be it
|
16 |
| RESOLVED, BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE |
17 |
| NINETY-FOURTH GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, THE |
18 |
| SENATE CONCURRING HEREIN, that the Auditor General is directed |
19 |
| to conduct a follow-up to the 1995 study that identifies |
20 |
| programs in State government that appear to be overlapping or |
21 |
| duplicative; and be it further
|
22 |
| RESOLVED, That the report include, but not be limited to, |
23 |
| the following determinations:
|
24 |
| (1) Developing an inventory of State programs by |
25 |
| surveying State agencies and collecting follow-up |
26 |
| information as needed; |
27 |
| (2) Identifying programs that may be duplicative |
28 |
| across 2 or more agencies, such as similar services in |
29 |
| different agencies that are provided to similar categories |
30 |
| of recipients; |
