A.R.S. tit. 41 ch. 27 — Arizona Revised Statutes Title 41 Chapter 27 — Legislative Review Of Agencies And Expiration Of New Programs

41-2951. Purpose A. The Arizona legislature finds that state government actions have caused an increase in the number of agencies, departments, boards, commissions, institutions and programs of this state and that the process has developed without sufficient legislative oversight. Furthermore, the legislature finds that state government should be continually reviewed and revised in response to the developing needs of the public. In addition, the legislature finds that programs are perpetuated without periodic and systematic reappraisal of their achievements as compared to their original objectives. The legislature concludes that by establishing a system for the termination, study, review, continuation or reestablishment of such agencies, it will be in a better position to evaluate the need for the continued existence of current and future agencies, departments, boards, commissions, institutions and programs of this state. B. It is the intention of the legislature: 1. To establish an orderly schedule for the termination of existing state agencies, departments, boards, commissions, institutions and programs and to make provisions for legislative review to enable the legislature to have the benefit of recommendations for the continuation of those state agencies, departments, boards, commissions, institutions and programs which are deemed to be essential for the necessary and efficient operation of government. 2. That the sunset review of an existing state agency, department, program, board or advisory council or committee means the sunset review of the powers and duties exercised by such state agency, department, program, board or advisory council or committee. 3. That any amendment of the enabling authority for an agency, department, program, board or advisory council or committee subject to sunset review be in accordance with this chapter. 41-2952. Definitions In this chapter, unless the context otherwise requires: 1. "Agency" means any department, office, agency, commission, board or other instrumentality of this state specified in article 2 of this chapter regardless of whether monies are appropriated to such board. 2. "Committee" means the joint legislative audit committee. 3. "Committee of reference" means the appropriate standing committee of the house of representatives or senate that is appointed for the purpose of evaluating agencies subject to termination pursuant to this chapter. 4. "Special performance audit" means a performance audit of limited scope. 5. "Sunset review" means a systematic evaluation by the committee of reference under the supervision of the joint legislative audit committee, with the assistance of the appropriate agency, joint legislative budget committee, committees of reference, auditor general and support staff, to determine if the merits of the program justify its continuation rather than termination, or its continuation at a level less than or greater than the existing level. Such review shall be undertaken in the scope and detail the committee of reference deems appropriate and shall include, without limitation, whether there is a need for the program in state government and, if so, an assessment of the degree to which the original objectives of the program have been achieved expressed in terms of the performance, impact or accomplishments of the program and of the situation it was intended to address. Such review shall be coordinated with the performance audit procedures of the auditor general as set forth in chapter 7, article 10.1 of this title or of the committees of reference, whichever is appropriate. 6. "Terminate" or "termination" means the date provided for termination of legislative authority for the existence of a particular agency pursuant to article 2 of this chapter. 41-2953. Joint legislative audit committee; sunset powers and duties; report by auditor general and committees of reference; sunset review reports; performance audits A. The joint legislative audit committee shall designate the chairperson of each committee of reference and shall assign agencies to the respective committees of reference according to subject matter for performance review. B. The auditor general shall provide to the joint legislative audit committee a list of agencies scheduled for termination in the next sunset termination schedule, plus an estimate of the audit hours necessary to conduct a sunset review of each agency at least twenty months before the termination date for such agencies. At least nineteen months before the termination date, the joint legislative audit committee shall meet to review the information submitted by the auditor general, shall select which agencies are subject to sunset review by the auditor general and which agencies are subject to sunset review by the committees of reference and shall determine the priority of review by the auditor general or the committees of reference, except that the Arizona criminal justice commission established by section 41-2404 is subject to sunset review by the auditor general. If the auditor general or the committees of reference are unable to complete the sunset review of a selected agency, the joint legislative audit committee shall oversee the preparation of proposed legislation to place the agency in the following sunset termination schedule and is responsible for the introduction of the legislation. Those agencies not selected for sunset review by the joint legislative audit committee shall terminate pursuant to article 2 of this chapter unless otherwise continued by the legislature. C. The joint legislative audit committee shall initiate the sunset review at least seventeen months before the termination date for each agency that is selected pursuant to subsection B of this section and scheduled for termination pursuant to article 2 of this chapter. The draft sunset review report shall be completed at least eleven months before the date established by article 2 of this chapter for termination. Before the report is submitted, the state agency affected shall be given an opportunity to review the draft report and submit written comments or rebuttal, which shall be included in the preliminary sunset review report. The agency shall have not more than forty calendar days to review the draft report for comment or rebuttal. The preliminary sunset review report shall be submitted to the governor, to each member of the joint legislative audit committee, to the committee of reference and to the affected agency by October 1 of the year before the scheduled termination date of the agency. D. The joint legislative audit committee may direct the auditor general or the committees of reference to conduct a performance audit as defined in section 41-1278 or a special performance audit of any agency. E. If an agency is continued, the joint legislative audit committee may direct the auditor general or the committees of reference to conduct a follow-up review of the agency to determine how the agency has performed its statutory functions or corrected deficiencies of prior sunset review, or both. 41-2954. Committees of reference; performance review reports; hearings; recommendations; subpoena powers; definitions A. Each standing committee of both legislative houses shall constitute a committee of reference in the committee's respective subject matter areas and the committee's respective house. B. After receipt of the preliminary sunset review report, each committee of reference or each committee of reference meeting jointly shall hold at least one public hearing when the legislature is not in session or before the third Friday in January to receive testimony from the public and from the officials of the agency involved. The agency involved shall prepare a presentation for the first public meeting that addresses the elements of the written statement required by subsection G of this section. C. Each committee of reference shall hold public hearings for the following purposes: 1. To determine the actual need of the agency to regulate or direct the particular activity. 2. To determine the extent to which the statutory requirements of the agency are necessary and are being met. 3. To receive testimony from the public as to the relationship of the agency with the public. 4. To receive testimony from the executive director or other head of the agency as to reasons for the continuation of the agency. D. Each committee of reference shall consider but not be limited to the following factors in determining the need for continuation or termination of each agency: 1. The key statutory objectives and purposes in establishing the agency. 2. The agency's effectiveness and efficiency in fulfilling its key statutory objectives and purposes. 3. The extent to which the agency's key statutory objectives and purposes duplicate the objectives and purposes of other governmental agencies or private enterprises. 4. The extent to which rules adopted by the agency are consistent with the legislative mandate. 5. The extent to which the agency has provided appropriate public access to records, meetings and rulemakings, including soliciting public input in making rules and decisions. 6. The extent to which the agency timely investigated and resolved complaints that are within its jurisdiction. 7. The extent to which the level of regulation exercised by the agency is appropriate as compared to other states or best practices, or both. 8. The extent to which the agency has established safeguards against possible conflicts of interest. 9. The extent to which changes are necessary for the agency to more efficiently and effectively fulfill its key statutory objectives and purposes or to eliminate statutory responsibilities that are no longer necessary. 10. The extent to which the termination of the agency would significantly affect the public health, safety or welfare. E. Each committee of reference that reviews an agency that administers an occupational regulation shall consider but not be limited to the following factors in determining the need for continuation or termination of each agency: 1. The extent to which the occupational regulation meets the requirements of section 41-3502. 2. The extent to which failure to regulate a profession or occupation will result in: (a) The loss of insurance. (b) An impact to the ability to practice in other states or as required by federal law. (c) An impact to the required licensure or registration with the federal government. (d) The loss of constitutionally afforded practices. F. The committee of reference shall deliver the final sunset review report of its recommendations to the president of the senate, the speaker of the house of representatives, the governor, the auditor general and the affected agency on or before the third Friday in January. The recommendations shall include one or more of the following: 1. That the state agency be continued. 2. That the state agency be revised or consolidated. 3. That the state agency be terminated pursuant to this chapter. 4. If the state agency administers an occupational regulation, that the legislature: (a) Repeal the occupational or professional license. (b) Convert the occupational or professional license to a less restrictive regulation as defined in section 41-3501. (c) Instruct the state agency to seek legislation or adopt rules to reflect the committee of reference's recommendation to: (i) Impose less restrictive regulations than occupational or professional licenses. (ii) Change the requisite personal qualifications of an occupational or professional license. (iii) Redefine the scope of practice in an occupational or professional license. G. The final sunset review report by each committee of reference shall also include a written statement prepared by the agency involved that contains an assessment of: 1. The extent to which the agency potentially creates unexpected negative consequences that may require additional review by the committee of reference, including increasing the price of goods, affecting the availability of services, limiting the abilities of individuals and businesses to operate efficiently and increasing the cost of government. 2. The extent to which the agency has addressed deficiencies in its enabling statutes. 3. The extent to which the agency has determined whether the attorney general or any other agency in this state has the authority to prosecute or initiate actions. 4. The consequences of eliminating the agency or of consolidating it with another agency. H. Each committee of reference shall oversee the preparation of any proposed legislation to implement the recommendations of that committee of reference and is responsible for the introduction of such legislation. I. If an agency is continued, it is not necessary to reappoint any member of the governing board or commission of the agency. Such members are eligible to complete their original terms without reappointment or reconfirmation. J. Each committee of reference shall have the power of legislative subpoena pursuant to chapter 7, article 4 of this title. K. For the purposes of this section, "less restrictive regulation", "occupational or professional license" and "personal qualifications" have the same meanings prescribed in section 41-3501. 41-2955.
