This amendment adds a requirement for an audit of the Wyoming Business Council and appropriates $100,000 from the general fund to the Department of Audit to conduct a forensic audit of the council.
- Adds language to Section 1 (Page 1) requiring an audit of funds, which appears to be a conforming amendment to reference the new forensic audit requirement. (Page 1, line 13)
- Creates a new Section 328 that appropriates $100,000 from the general fund to the Department of Audit to conduct a forensic audit of the Wyoming Business Council. The audit must commence and be completed as soon as possible and findings must be distributed to the Joint Appropriations Committee, Joint Minerals, Business and Economic Development Interim Committee, and the Governor. If not completed by July 1, 2026, the Department of Audit must notify those bodies by May 29, 2026. The audit must include: all funds currently held and received/expended since July 1, 2025; all accounts used to hold appropriated or expended funds dating back to July 1, 2019; all private source donations held by the council; review of whether funds were administered in accordance with applicable law since July 1, 2023; and review of whether funds were accounted for and expended in conformance with generally accepted accounting principles except for authorized deviations.
