Auditor of Accounts/Clarify Duties

What it does

The legislature's own summary of the bill, or its official long title.

This Act clarifies the Auditor of Account’s duties and powers by amending § 2901 of Title 29 to define “audit” to include performance audits, and by amending §§ 2906 and 2909 of Title 29 to change "postaudit" to "audit." This Act also clarifies that audits must be conducted using standards issued by the U.S. Government Accountability Office. This Act also makes technical corrections to conform existing law to the standards of the Delaware Legislative Drafting Manual.
