The Executive Branch Reform Act of 1986 (74 O.S. Sections 10.1–10.4) is an Oklahoma state law that requires the Governor of Oklahoma to organize the various 500 or more departments, agencies, boards, commissions and other entities of the state's executive branch into a cabinet system. The act grouped state agencies into clusters with an informational link to a cabinet secretary. But the legislation stopped short of consolidating agencies or the decision-making authority of the agencies, boards and commissions. For example, the State Transportation Secretary, Gary Ridley as cabinet secretary, does not have direct statutory authority over either the State Highway Commission (and its Director) or the State Turnpike Authority (and its Director). However, Ridley concurrently holds all 3 titles so at the present time authority is consolidated, albeit in a temporary ad hoc manner. Similarly, the Secretary of Education has no authority over the State Department of Education, State Regents for Higher Education, CareerTech Department or State Chancellor for Higher Education. The Executive Branch Reform Act was signed into law by Governor George Nigh on June 6, 1986. ==Background== The executive branch of the government of Oklahoma continues to be divided into some 500 different departments, agencies, board and commissions, with each appointed commission member appointed by and(in theory) answering directly to the Governor of Oklahoma. For example, a 7-member board will become controlled by the new Governor after he appoints 4 members, which in most cases will occur in the 4th year of the Governor's term of office. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Executive Branch Reform Act of 1986」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
