(b) The Legislature further finds and declares that the general public of this state has traditionally been denied access to information regarding vacancies which occur on such boards and commissions, thereby denying most citizens and interest groups the opportunity to nominate for consideration by the Governor, the Legislature and other appointive powers persons whose particular strengths, backgrounds, experience, perspective, and talents might contribute significantly to efficient and representative policy development and administration in state government.
(c) The Legislature further finds and declares that the Governors, the Legislature, and other appointive powers of this state, have been denied access to a talent resource hitherto untapped.

12080.1. The Governor, from time to time, shall examine the organization of all agencies and shall determine what changes therein are necessary to accomplish one or more of the following purposes:
(a) To promote the better execution of the laws, the more effective management of the executive and administrative branch of the state government and of its agencies and functions and the expeditious administration of the public business;
(b) To reduce expenditures and promote economy to the fullest extent practicable consistent with the efficient operation of the state government;
(c) To increase the efficiency of the operation of the state government to the fullest extent practicable;
(d) To group, consolidate and coordinate agencies and functions thereof as nearly as possible according to major purposes;
(e) To reduce the number of agencies by consolidating those having similar functions under a single head and to abolish such agencies or functions thereof as may not be necessary for the efficient operation of the state government;
(f) To eliminate overlapping and duplication of effort.
The Legislature declares that the public interest requires the carrying out of the purposes set forth in this section, and that such purposes may be accomplished more speedily and effectively under this article than by the enactment of specific legislation.

12080.2. Whenever the Governor finds that reorganization is in the public interest, the Governor shall prepare one or more reorganization plans in the form and language of a bill as nearly as practicable and transmit each, bearing an identifying number, to the Legislature, with a declaration that, with respect to each reorganization included in the plan, the Governor has so found. The delivery to both houses may be at any time during a regular session of the Legislature. The Governor, in transmitting a reorganization plan, shall explain the advantages which it is probable will be brought about by the taking effect of the reorganization included in the plan, and shall specify with respect to each abolition of a function included in the plan the statutory authority for the exercise of the function. Reorganization plans submitted to the Legislature pursuant to this section shall express clearly and specifically the nature and purposes of the plan or plans.
Upon receipt of a reorganization plan, the Rules Committee of the Senate and the Speaker of the Assembly shall refer the plan to a standing committee of their respective houses for study and a report. That report shall be made at least 10 days prior to the end of the 60-day period described in Section 12080.5 and may include the committee’s recommendation with respect to a resolution.
A resolution, by floor motion, as defined in subdivision (c) of Section 12080, may only be in order following a committee report or at any time during the last 10 days prior to the end of the 60-day period described in Section 12080.5. That resolution shall be voted upon without referral to committee.

12080.3. Each reorganization plan transmitted by the Governor under this article:
(a) May change the name of an agency affected by a reorganization and the title of its head, and shall designate the name of an agency resulting from a reorganization and the title of its head.
(b) May include provisions, in accordance with Article VII of the California Constitution, for the appointment of the head and one or more other officers of an agency, including an agency resulting from a consolidation or other type of reorganization, if the Governor finds, and in transmitting the plan declares, that by reason of a reorganization made by the plan the provisions are in the public interest. The head may be an individual or a commission or board with two or more members. In any case, the appointment of the agency head shall be subject to confirmation by the Senate. The term of office of an appointee, if any is provided, shall be fixed at not more than four years. The Legislature shall fix the compensation of all department heads and officers who are not subject to Article VII of the California Constitution.
(c) Shall provide for the transfer of employees serving in the state civil service, other than temporary employees, who are engaged in the performance of a function transferred to another agency or engaged in the administration of a law, the administration of which is transferred to the agency, by the reorganization plan. The status, positions, and rights of those persons shall not be affected by their transfer and shall continue to be retained by them pursuant to the State Civil Service Act (Part 2 (commencing with Section 18500) of Division 5), except as to positions the duties of which are vested in a position exempt from civil service.
(d) Shall provide for the transfer or other disposition of the personnel records and property affected by a reorganization.
(e) Shall provide for the transfer of unexpended balances of appropriations and of other funds available for use in connection with any function or agency affected by a reorganization, as the Governor deems necessary by reason of the reorganization, for use in connection with the functions affected by the reorganization or for the use of the agency that has these functions after the reorganization plan becomes effective. Transferred balances shall be used only for the purpose for which the appropriation was originally made.
(f) Shall provide for terminating the affairs of an agency abolished.
(g) Shall enumerate all acts of the Legislature that will be suspended if the reorganization plan becomes effective.

(b) Continuing any function beyond the period authorized by law for its exercise, or beyond the time when it would have terminated if the reorganization had not been made;

(e) Abolishing any agency created by the California Constitution, or abolishing or transferring to the jurisdiction and control of any other agency any function conferred by the California Constitution on an agency created by that Constitution.
