Article 24* - (Labor) COMPREHENSIVE EMPLOYMENT AND TRAINING ACT ALLOCATION REVIEW BOARD
850* - Legislative findings and objectives.

*    850*. Legislative findings and objectives. The legislature finds
  that due to the harmful impact upon the people of the state and upon the
  economic stability of the state as  the  result  of  high  cyclical  and
  structural   unemployment  it  is  necessary  and  appropriate  to  most
  effectively allocate any and all economic  resources  available  to  the
  state  of  New  York such as the federal funds allocated to New York for
  the creation of public service  jobs  according  to  the  provisions  of
  Public  Law  93-203  (as  amended)  and  it  is  therefore in the public
  interest of the state of New York to create a mechanism  to  effectively
  review and monitor the allocation of such public law funds by applicants
  for  such  funds  within  the  state  of  New  York and recommend to all
  applicants for such funds that the  allocation  of  public  service  job
  opportunities  within  the communities served by the applicants maximize
  the value of such public law funds to reduce the  unemployment  rate  by
  employing  persons  whose  employment  will most contribute to a general
  improvement of the economy of the state, as well as a restoration  of  a
  balance  between  the private and public sectors of the state's economy,
  and, furthermore, recommend to all applicants for such funds  that  such
  allocations of public service jobs be in compliance with all such public
  law  rules  and regulations, especially section 99.1 (c) which specifies
  that at least fifty percent of persons hired for such public law  public
  service  jobs  be persons who are long-term unemployed and recipients of
  aid to families with dependent children.
