DAVE Act Passes Legislature, State Auditor Boliek "Fully On Board"
RALEIGH, N.C. — Today, the North Carolina General Assembly passed House Bill 125, “Continuing Budget Operations.” The bill includes “The DAVE Act” provision, which requires the North Carolina Office of the State Auditor to establish a “Division of Accountability, Value, and Efficiency.” The division will assess the continued need for each state agency and whether cuts need to be made.
State Auditor Dave Boliek released the following statement on the passage of the provision:
“The DAVE Act creates exactly the type of government efficiency initiatives that North Carolina needs. Our team is prepared to take a data-driven approach in its evaluation of North Carolina’s government. If cuts to government need to be made, or agencies need to be reorganized or eliminated, we’re not going to shy away from making those recommendations.
“I am fully on board with this initiative, and I share the General Assembly’s commitment to better government. Ultimately, the goal is to make sure the people of North Carolina – who fund the government – are served in an efficient and effective way.”
