52:15C-20 Findings, declarations relative to consolidation of offices of Inspector General and Medicaid Inspector General.
1.The Legislature finds and declares:
a.Currently, there are numerous agencies within State government that are responsible for monitoring and auditing government programs and agencies, reviewing the performance of government functions and programs, and investigating misconduct by public employees, all aimed at providing accountability and transparency, promoting the efficiency and integrity of government operations, and identifying cost savings.
b.While the ongoing review of government operations helps guard against the waste, fraud, and abuse of public resources, the overlapping of the missions of the Office of the Inspector General, Office of the Medicaid Inspector General, and the Office of the State Comptroller has the potential to lead to inefficiencies in the performance of these critical functions.
c.The consolidation of the powers and duties of these existing State offices within the Office of the State Comptroller will allow for the systematic, efficient, and coordinated review and oversight of the State and its subdivisions.
