7B.010 Legislative findings. The General Assembly finds and declares that: (1) The growing complexity and interdependence of the modern world, demonstrated by such issues as global environmental change, changing workforce development needs, the aging population, international trade, the number of working poor, the need for improved access to health care, and the emergence of fundamental changes in the role of government, require that government decision-makers consider the long-term changes affecting the welfare of the Commonwealth of Kentucky and bring these factors to bear upon public policy; (2) There is a need to coordinate state government's information resources to provide a systematic and comprehensive use of that information to guide policymakers concerning critical trends and alternative futures; (3) To effect a prosperous future for the Commonwealth and its citizens, it is necessary for changes to occur in the way decisions are made in government so policymakers can consider the long-term implications of decisions and address emerging issues so the Commonwealth can take advantage of opportunities, avoid problems, and provide for continuity in policy; and (4) It is necessary to establish mechanisms to bring all perspectives into the decisionmaking process to evaluate information, focus attention on areas in which information is inadequate, and identify critical trends and alternative futures based upon the best available information. Effective: July 14, 1992 History: Created 1992 Ky. Acts ch. 103, sec. 1, effective July 14, 1992, effective July 14, 1992. 2018-2020 Budget Reference. See Legislative Branch Budget, 2018 Ky.
