Commission on Privatization and Efficiency - COPE

"I'm establishing the Commission on Privatization and Efficiency or “COPE”.
COPE will identify state services and agencies whose functions can be eliminated, consolidated, streamlined or outsourced to achieve greater operational efficiency in meeting the needs of our citizens.

I am proud to announce today that Mark Brnovich, my Director of the Department of Gaming, and former Director of the Center for Constitutional Government at the Goldwater Institute, will serve as chairman.

I will consult with President Bob Burns and Speaker Kirk Adams so they can join me in this important effort."

Governor Jan Brewer
