Chairman Leman called the Senate State Affairs Committee meeting to order at 9:10 a.m. and announced SB 128 LEGISLATIVE AUDITS to be up for consideration. SENATOR MILLER moved to adopt the CS to SB 128. There were no objections and it was so ordered. RANDY WELKER, Legislative Auditor, said the CS makes one change on page 2, line 3 by inserting "executive branch" so it was clear the Office of Management and Budget did not have authority to direct implementation of audit recommendations to the judicial branch. SENATOR TAYLOR commented that he didn't see the reason for putting something into statute when it was the Executive branch's duty, anyhow. MR. WELKER explained SB 128 required Legislative Audit to report their progress to the Budget and Audit Committee. SENATOR TAYLOR moved to pass CSSB 128 from committee with individual recommendations. There were no objections and it was so ordered.
