Bill > S2235

This bill mandates that starting January 1, 2027, the auditor general, an independent state official responsible for auditing government finances and operations, must create a schedule for and conduct performance audits of all state agencies and quasi-public governmental agencies. A performance audit is defined as an examination of how effectively and efficiently a state agency is carrying out its authorized programs, and may also include a review of compliance with equal employment opportunity laws and minority business set-asides. The bill also requires the auditor general to report any agency that fails to meet performance standards to the governor, speaker of the house, and president of the senate by January 1st of each year. This act will become law upon its passage.
