It is also the intent of the legislature to provide for an orderly transfer of powers, duties and functions of the various state agencies to such departments with a minimum of disruption of governmental services and functions and with a minimum expense; and to this end, the governor shall begin immediately making such studies and preparations and taking such actions as are necessary to implement the provisions of all reorganization legislation enacted by the first session of the thirty-third legislature.
