AI Summary
This bill authorizes the State Auditor to access certain tax returns and related tax records already in the possession of the Department of Revenue. This access is necessary for the auditing of the Department of Revenue or other state agencies and programs that use tax returns and related tax records to determine program eligibility, such as child support enforcement, municipal tax receipts, and public benefits wage matching. The identity of specific taxpayers, audit workpapers, and tax returns will be kept confidential and not included in any published audit reports, and the audits will be conducted solely for the purpose of evaluating the performance of the state agency or program, not for auditing any specific taxpayer.
