Missouri Revised Statutes Title III. Legislative Branch § 23.190. Recommendations made to agency--response procedure for agency--evaluation reports, distribution, charge for public--review of agency in one year, report

1. In making program evaluations the division shall make recommendations and suggestions, in writing, to the personnel of the agency being evaluated. Such personnel shall be given an opportunity to respond, in writing, to those recommendations and suggestions. Thereafter, as soon as practicable after completion of the evaluation, the committee shall issue a public report of the evaluation. The report shall contain recommendations for changes in practices and policies as well as recommendations for changes in statutes and regulations, and shall contain the response of the agency involved. Each report shall be a public record and shall be signed by the committee chair. Each report shall be presented to the governor and the agency involved. Copies may be made available to members of the general assembly and to the general public. The committee may charge a fee to recover publication costs for copies made available to the general public.

2. One year after completion of each evaluation, the oversight division shall review the operations of the agency evaluated to determine whether or not there has been substantial compliance with the recommendations contained in the report, and if not, a further review shall be conducted at the end of another year. In each instance a further report shall be made and distributed in the same manner as an initial report is made and distributed.
