§ 1418 Audit of monies received by state or local government under act.

Any money that state or local government offices collect under this law has to be checked every year. The State Auditor and Inspector is the one who does this check. This is called an audit.

An audit means someone independent looks at the records to make sure the money coming in is being tracked and handled correctly. This helps make sure government offices are being honest and accurate about the funds they collect under this law. It also gives the public a way to know that the money is being watched and not misused.
