Remaking Commerce agency

As Gov.-elect Scott Walker and the Legislature consider how to get the most out of state economic
development efforts, one emerging answer is to dismantle Commerce and rebuild it along the lines of a
public-private partnership, a model followed in some states.

That approach may work, but it could leave programs in seven other state agencies essentially untouched.
Another option may be to relieve Commerce of its regulatory functions and make it a central
clearinghouse for programs now housed in other state agencies.
