Vote: MAJORITY   Appropriation: NO   Fiscal Committee: NO   Local Program: NO  

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:


SECTION 1.

 (a) It is the intent of the Legislature to enact legislation to provide a system of analysis that supports a results-oriented framework for the delivery of public services and the operation of state departments and programs. That framework should prioritize understanding the results of programs and funding that are subject to a transfer of authority and responsibility from state government to county governments.
(b) The Legislature hereby finds and declares the following:
(1) State government must focus on the outcomes of public policy decisions and public programs to ensure opportunities are available for all Californians to achieve a high quality of life.
(2) The Legislature must ensure that policymakers, public program administrators, and rank-and-file state workers have access to relevant and timely information so that they can make informed decisions in the design and delivery of public programs.
(3) The focus of that information must be on the goals of those public programs and the performance of the public agencies in administering those programs.
(4) Goal and performance information should be widely available, relevant, and timely for informing budget, policy, and oversight decisions.
(5) In order to identify performance measurements relevant to budget, policy, and oversight decisionmaking, public agencies must consult with the public, rank-and-file state workers, supervisors, and other officials responsible for the delivery of public programs.
(6) Performance measurements, including information on outcomes and other metrics relevant to improving those outcomes, should be designed to ensure that limited public resources are well spent.
(7) Establishing goal, performance, and outcome information for public programs should be part of a systematic review of the effectiveness and efficiency of those programs.
(8) Goal, performance, and outcome information should be made widely available to the public.
(9) Goal, performance, and outcome information should be used in the annual budget and policymaking process to inform fiscal and policy decisions and by the Legislature to enhance oversight of public programs and to ensure results-based accountability.
(10) As a component of legislative oversight, goal, performance, and outcome information should be used to identify programs that require fundamental reforms to improve outcomes and programs subject to elimination because they are ineffective.
