Minutes for SB16 - Committee on Ways and Means
Short Title
Removing the requirement that certain entities submit certain reports to the division of post audit.
Minutes Content for Wed, Jan 27, 2021
Chairperson Billinger opened the hearing on SB 16. Scott Abbott, Office of the Revisor of Statutes, provided an overview of the bill. (Attachment 1)
Justin Stowe, Director of Legislative Post Audit, testified in favor of the bill. The 2020 version of this bill passed out of the Senate last session on the consent calendar and was sent the House Appropriations Committee but did not make it further before the Legislature shut down early due to COVID-19. Legislative Post Audit is no longer involved in the oversight of financial audits so, in the interest of efficiency, we should remove this requirement. Mr. Stowe responded to questions from Committee members. (Attachment 2)
Written only testimony neutral to the bill was submitted by Blake Flanders, Kansas Board of Regents. (Attachment 3)
There being no further conferees, Chairperson Billinger closed the hearing on SB 16.
