The general assembly hereby finds and declares that the proliferation of type 1 agencies in state government has increased the number of state government programs through the adoption of administrative rules and regulations and that the level of accountability within each principal department of state government has decreased due to the independence of the type 1 agencies. The general assembly therefore adopts this article in order to evaluate existing type 1 agencies and to determine whether agencies created in the future should be so designated.
