This act gave the British Governor complete control of the town meetings, and taking control out of the hands of the colonialists.The Act is one of the Intolerable Acts also Repressive Acts and or the Coercive Acts , designed to suppress dissent and restore order in the Province of Massachusetts Bay . In the wake of the Boston Tea Party , Parliament launched a legislative offensive against Massachusetts to control its errant behavior. British officials realized part of their inability to control the colony was rooted in the highly independent nature of local government there. The Massachusetts GovernmentAct abrogated the colony s charter and provided for a greater amount of royal control. Massachusetts had been unique among the colonies in its ability to elect members of its Massachusetts Governor s Council executive council . This Act took away that right and instead gave the king sole power to appoint and dismiss the council. Additionally, many civil offices that had previously been chosen by election were now to be appointed by the royal governor. Town meeting s were forbidden without consent of the governor, except for one regularly scheduled annual meeting. As Lord North explained to Parliament, the purpose of the act was to take the executive power from the hands of the democratic part of government . ref Ian R. Christie and Benjamin W.

The Government Performance and Results Act GPRA P.L. 103 62 is a United States law enacted in 1993. It is one of a series of laws designed to improve government project management. The GPRA requires agencies to engage in project management tasks such as setting goals, measuring results, and reporting their progress. In order to comply with the GPRA, agencies produce strategic plans, performance plans, and conduct gap analysis of projects. The foundation of GPRA is based on the following three elements as follows. First, agencies are required to develop five year strategic plans that must contain a mission statement for the agency, and long term results oriented goals covering each of its major functions. Second, agencies are required to prepare annual performance plans that establish the performance goals for the applicable fiscal year, a brief description of how these goals are to be met, and a description of how these performance goals can be verified. Third, agencies must prepare annual performance reports that review the agency s success or failure in meeting its targeted performance goals. The Office of Management and Budget OMB is tasked pursuant to the GPRA with producing an annual report on agency performance. This is produced with the President s annual budget request.
