(25 ILCS 150/3) (from Ch. 63, par. 106)
Sec. 3.
The Commission
shall receive the reports of the Auditor General and
other financial statements and shall determine what remedial measures, if
any, are needed, and whether special studies and investigations are
necessary. If the Commission shall deem such studies and investigations to
be necessary, the Commission may direct the Auditor General to undertake
such studies or investigations.
When a disagreement between the Audit Commission and an agency under the
Governor's jurisdiction arises in the process of the Audit Commission's
review of audit reports relating to such agency, the Audit Commission shall
promptly advise the Governor of such areas of disagreement. The Governor
shall respond to the Audit Commission within a reasonable period of time,
and in no event later than 60 days, expressing his views concerning such
areas of disagreement and indicating the corrective action taken by his
office with reference thereto or, if no action is taken, indicating the
reasons therefor.
The Audit Commission also promptly shall advise all other responsible
officials of the Executive, Judicial, and Legislative branches of the State
government of areas of disagreement arising in the process of the
Commission's review of their respective audit reports. With reference to
his particular office, each such responsible official shall respond to the
Audit Commission within a reasonable period of time, and in no event later
than 60 days, expressing his view concerning such areas of disagreement and
indicating the corrective action taken with reference thereto or stating
the reasons that no action has been taken.
The Commission shall report its activities to the General Assembly
including such remedial measures as it deems to be necessary. The report of
the Commission shall be made to the General Assembly not
less often than annually and not later than March 1 in each year.
The requirement for reporting to the General Assembly shall be satisfied
by filing copies of the report as required
by Section 3.1 of the General Assembly Organization Act, and filing such additional copies
with the State Government Report Distribution Center for the General Assembly
as is required under
paragraph (t) of Section 7 of the State Library Act.
In addition, the Commission has the powers and duties provided for in the
Illinois State Auditing Act, and,
if the provisions of that Act conflict with those of this Act, that Act prevails.
