Legislative oversight" refers to the

legislature's review and evaluation of

selected activities of the executive

branch of government. The legislative branch

conducts oversight activities because it not only

enacts new programs for the state, but also has a duty

to ensure that existing programs are implemented

and administered effi ciently, effectively, and in a

manner consistent with legislative intent.
