2019 New Mexico Statutes
Chapter 12 - Miscellaneous Public Affairs Matters
Article 9 - Sunset Act
Section 12-9-12 - Findings of fact.

Universal Citation: NM Stat § 12-9-12 (2019)

The legislature finds that state government actions have produced a substantial increase in numbers of programs and a proliferation of rules and regulations and that the whole process has developed in a haphazard, piecemeal fashion resulting in overlapping and duplication without regulatory accountability or a system of checks and balances. The legislature further finds that by establishing a system for periodic review of certain separate administratively attached and adjunct agencies, it will be in a better position to evaluate the need for the continued existence of the regulatory agencies covered by the Sunset Act [12-9-11 to 12-9-21 NMSA 1978].

History: Laws 1981, ch. 241, ยง 2.
