D. The Office of the Attorney General may review all applications and renewals and other relevant information required to be filed with the Secretary of State pursuant to this act in order to determine the reasonableness and accuracy of such information and to determine if there are any violations of the act. If the Office of the Attorney General finds any questionable information or inaccuracies, it may notify the charitable organization, professional fundraiser or professional solicitor of such discrepancies and allow a reasonable time to cure such discrepancies. If such discrepancies are not cured in a reasonable time or if the Office of the Attorney General becomes aware of any other violations of this act, then it may investigate and/or prosecute as authorized by this act.

If the entity has not registered within one month after written notification then the Office of the Attorney General may take enforcement action concerning the failure to register.
