C.R.S. § 24-33.5-501

In enacting this part 5, the general assembly declares that its purpose is to improve all areas of the administration of criminal justice in Colorado, both immediately and in the long term, regardless of whether the direct responsibility for action lies at the state level or with the many units of local government. The implementation of this policy is facilitated by the availability of federal funds, but the policy itself is not dependent thereon.
