A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
AN ACT
relating to certain audit and reporting requirements of regional
planning commissions.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:
SECTION 1. Section 391.0095(e), Local Government Code, is
amended to read as follows:
(e) A commission shall send to the governor, the state
auditor, [the comptroller,] and the Legislative Budget Board a copy
of each report and audit required under this section or under
Section 391.009. The state auditor may review each audit and
report, subject to a risk assessment performed by the state auditor
and to the legislative audit committee's approval of including the
review in the audit plan under Section 321.013, Government Code. If
the state auditor reviews the audit or report, the state auditor
must be given access to working papers and other supporting
documentation that the state auditor determines is necessary to
perform the review. If the state auditor finds significant issues
involving the administration or operation of a commission or its
programs, the state auditor shall report its findings and related
recommendations to the legislative audit committee, the governor,
and the commission. The governor and the legislative audit
committee may direct the commission to prepare a corrective action
plan or other response to the state auditor's findings or
recommendations. The legislative audit committee may direct the
state auditor to perform any additional audit or investigative work
that the committee determines is necessary.
SECTION 2. This Act takes effect September 1, 2019.
