The 117th Legislature enacted Public Law 1995, chapter 35, "The Government Evaluation
Act", that established a new system for periodic review of the executive branch agencies and independent agencies
of state government to evaluate their efficacy and performance. The Government Evaluation Act, found in Title 3
M.R.S.A. sections 951-963, generally applies to agencies and independent agencies that either receive money from
the General Fund or that are established, created or incorporated by statute.
The Government Evaluation Act replaces the functions
of the former legislative Audit and Program Review Committee which was eliminated in 1994.
