N.M. Stat. Ann. § 12-9-12 (2026).

Text

The legislature finds that state government actions have produced a substantial increase in numbers of programs and a proliferation of rules and regulations and that the whole process has developed in a haphazard, piecemeal fashion resulting in overlapping and duplication without regulatory accountability or a system of checks and balances. The legislature further finds that by establishing a system for periodic review of certain separate administratively attached and adjunct agencies, it will be in a better position to evaluate the need for the continued existence of the regulatory agencies covered by the Sunset Act [12-9-11 to 12-9-21 NMSA 1978].
