An Act Relative to Inspector General Annual Reports - House Bill 6

The first proposal, An Act Relative to the Consolidation of Inspector General Annual Reports, would consolidate the Office’s annual reports into one, comprehensive report. Specifically, the proposal would:

  • Modify the date on which the Office’s two embedded units – the Internal Special Audit Unit and the Division of State Police Oversight – submit their annual reports to the Legislature.
  • Include these reports as part of the Office’s annual report required under Section 12 of Chapter 12A.
  • Require the Office to submit its consolidated annual report to the Joint Committee on Transportation and the Joint Committee on Public Safety and Homeland Security. The Internal Special Audit Unit and the Division of State Police Oversight currently submit their annual reports to those committees.

  • Correct statutory references based on recently enacted amendments to other statutes.
  • Strike a section of Chapter 30B that is duplicative.
