The Joint Committee on
Performance Evaluation and Expenditure Review
Report # 465
Compendium of Recommendations from the PEER Committee, 2000-2003
Executive Summary
Introduction
At its September 10, 2003, meeting, the 2000-2003 PEER Committee asked that the staff compile a list of the legislative and administrative recommendations the Committee made during its last four-year term that could lead to improved effectiveness or efficiency in key policy areas. Further, the Committee asked that the staff distribute the resulting document to legislative leadership and to the chairs of the standing committees of the House and Senate for their use during the 2004 legislative session. This document is the result of that effort.
The first section of the document contains recommendations made to the Legislature by agency or program, the second section contains recommendations made to agencies and public officials by agency or program, and the third section contains a summary of proposed legislation by agency or program. The document presents follow-up information, when available, and concludes with a list of the reports that the Committee released from 2000 through 2003.
