Bill Summary
An Act To Amend Title 29 Of The Delaware Code Relating To The Distressed Cemetery Fund.
AI Summary
This bill amends the Delaware Code to modify the audit requirements for the Distressed Cemetery Fund, which is a financial resource likely used to support and maintain cemeteries facing financial challenges. Specifically, the bill changes the frequency of mandatory audits from an annual review to an audit that must occur at least once every 5 years. Additionally, the bill updates the official name of the auditing entity from "State Auditor's Office" to "Office of Auditor of Accounts". This change appears to be the result of a recommendation from the Joint Legislative Oversight and Sunset Committee following their review of the Delaware Cemetery Board. By reducing the audit frequency, the bill may potentially lower administrative costs and bureaucratic overhead while still maintaining periodic financial oversight of the Distressed Cemetery Fund.
