16-61E-1
Section 16-61E-1 Legislative findings; purpose. The Legislature finds that information technology
is an area of rapid change in which specialized knowledge and equipment are often essential.
The Legislature further recognizes that substantial savings may be realized by aggregating
the purchasing power of educational institutions. The Legislature therefore desires to authorize
the joint purchase of information technology and further recognizes that in an effort to truly
have fair and competitive bidding as well as ensure quality vendors, any companies that have
ISO-9001 certification or any companies or contractors whose affiliates, subdivisions, subsidiaries,
or departments have ISO-9001 certification can bid on the information technology to be jointly
purchased by educational institutions. (Act 2003-392, p. 1111, §1.)...

Section 17-5-8.2 Legislative findings. (a) The Legislature determines that there is a compelling
state and public interest in the disclosure of the source of funds used to advertise or otherwise
influence public opinion with regard to elections as defined in Section 17-5-2(3). The Legislature
further finds that these compelling interests should be designed to protect the public's right
to know while protecting free speech of individuals as guaranteed in the U.S. Constitution
and the Constitution of Alabama of 1901. (b) Currently, the Fair Campaign Practices Act, as
provided in this chapter, commencing with Section 17-5-1, et seq., regulates the disclosure
of contributions and expenditures made for the purpose of influencing the outcome of an election.
This chapter is also intended to regulate the disclosure of contributions and expenditures
for electioneering communications. (c) The Legislature finds and declares that Alabama voters

Section 20-2-210 Legislative findings. The Alabama Legislature hereby finds that the diversion,
abuse, and misuse of prescription medications classified as controlled substances under the
Alabama Uniform Controlled Substances Act constitutes a serious threat to the health and welfare
of the citizens of the State of Alabama. The Legislature further finds that establishment
of a controlled substances prescription database to monitor the prescribing and dispensing
of controlled substances will materially assist state regulators and practitioners authorized
to prescribe and dispense controlled substances in the prevention of diversion, abuse, and
misuse of controlled substances prescription medication through the provision of education
and information, early intervention, and prevention of diversion, and investigation and enforcement
of existing laws governing the use of controlled substances. (Act 2004-443, p. 781, §1.)...

obligation to create and maintain records which document its work and to make those records

Section 6-5-520 Intent of Legislature; legislative findings; collateral source rule modified.
The Legislature finds that product liability litigation has increased substantially and the
cost of such litigation has risen in recent years. The Legislature further finds that these
increases have an impact upon the price and availability of products. It is the belief of
the Legislature that there are special reasons for modifying the collateral source rule in
this state as it applies to product liability actions. The Legislature finds that the recovery
by plaintiffs of medical and hospital expenses as damages where plaintiffs are reimbursed
for the same medical and hospital expenses from other sources contributes to the increase
in the cost of product liability litigation. It is the intent of the Legislature that plaintiffs
be compensated fully for any medical or hospital expenses incurred as a result of injuries
sustained from a breach of product liability laws, but that plaintiffs not...

16-44A-1
Section 16-44A-1 Legislative intent. (a) The Legislature finds that the 1986 and 1992 Commissions
on the Future of the South, under the auspices of the Southern Growth Policies Board, called
for youth and community leadership development and support as critical to southern economic
development and progress. The Legislature further finds that citizenship and leadership programs
are vital to the well-being of our American system of self-government, and to the civic well-being,
economic development, and quality of life in Alabama, the South, and the nation. (b) It is
the intent of the Legislature to work to achieve these southern leadership goals by creating
a voluntary compact of public, non-profit, and private sectors to enhance and expand leadership
and citizenship education in Alabama. (Acts 1994, No. 94-482, p. 799, §1.)...

16-28A-1
Section 16-28A-1 Legislative findings. It is the finding of the Alabama Legislature that the
people of Alabama have two basic expectations of their public schools: (1) that students be
allowed to learn in a safe classroom setting where order and discipline are maintained; and
(2) that students learn at the level of their capabilities and achieve accordingly. The Legislature
finds further that every child in Alabama is entitled to have access to a program of instruction
which gives him or her the right to learn in a non-disruptive environment. No student has
a right to be unruly in his or her classroom to the extent that such disruption denies fellow
students of their right to learn. The teacher in each classroom is expected to maintain order
and discipline. Teachers are hereby given the authority and responsibility to use appropriate
means of discipline up to and including corporal punishment as may be prescribed by the local
board of education. So long as teachers follow approved...
