Citator

Cal. Gov't Code § 13885 — INTERNAL AUDITS is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.

The Legislature finds and declares as follows:

(a) Recent corporate scandals and federal legislation, such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (P.L. 107-204), focus attention on the importance of internal audit activity to public accountability and governance.

(b) Ensuring the independence of internal auditors of state agencies and that their findings are reported to the appropriate levels of government is critical to safeguarding public funds and the public trust.
