  Whereas the Employment Department administers employment

obtain jobs and underemployed individuals to obtain better jobs;
and
  Whereas the department's services are funded by a number of
different public sources; and
  Whereas current budget constraints emphasize the need to ensure
that the sources of funding are not duplicative and that the
department is using the funds appropriately; and
  Whereas it is important for the Legislative Assembly to
ascertain whether the department is achieving its outcome
objectives; now, therefore,
Be It Resolved by the Legislative Assembly of the State of
  Oregon:
  (1) The Joint Legislative Audit Committee shall conduct a
performance
 audit of the Employment Department to determine:
  (a) The appropriateness of job placement activity by funding
source; and
  (b) Whether the department is meeting its outcome objectives.
  (2) The Joint Legislative Audit Committee shall submit its
audit report to the Emergency Board by April 1, 2002.
