Administrative History
The Temporary State Commission on Coordination of State Activities (Mahoney Commission) was created by a 1946 law (Chapter 1002) to investigate State agencies' operations, to determine if they were economical and efficient, to determine if unnecessary activities and duplication of functions could be eliminated by reorganizing an agency or consolidating it with another, and to propose legislation to this end. During 1952 and 1953 the Mahoney Commission staff studied the operations of the Department of Civil Service and made recommendations for improvement.
