What is the Joint Legislative Program Evaluation Oversight Committee?
The Program Evaluation Division (PED) is a central, non-partisan staff unit of the Legislative Services Commission at the North Carolina General Assembly, created in 2007. The Joint Legislative Program Evaluation Oversight Committee is made up of House and Senate members, and evaluates State agency programs through the PED. The mission is to evaluate whether State agencies or entities using State funds are operating in an effective and efficient manner. The committee sets a work plan for each biennium, and meets periodically over the interim.
