Office of the Auditor General
The Office of the Auditor General serves as an independent
source of impartial information concerning state and local
governmental entities and provides specific recommendations
to improve the operations of those entities. To
fulfill its statutory duties, the Office must
-
ascertain whether public entities are making wise use of
their resources—public money, personnel, property,
equipment, and space;
-
determine whether public entities are complying with
applicable laws, regulations, and governmental
accounting and financial and reporting standards;
-
define standards and establish procedures for accounting
and budgeting, as the Legislature requires; and
-
provide technical assistance to state and local
governmental entities.
The Joint
Legislative Audit Committee, which oversees all audit
functions of the Arizona Legislature, provides direction for
the Auditor General’s Office. Subject to approval by a
majority vote of both legislative houses, the Committee also
appoints the Auditor General for a 5-year renewable term.
The Auditor
General is assisted in fulfilling office
responsibilities by a Deputy and
nearly 200 employees organized into five operating
divisions: Accounting
Services, Financial
Audit, Financial
Investigations, Performance
Audit, and School
Audits. These divisions are supported by a general
counsel and administrative, information technology services,
and quality control groups.
The Office has audit responsibility for state
agencies, counties, universities, community
college districts, and school
districts. The Office also completes highly specific
research and investigative projects in response to
legislative requests.
The Office of the Auditor General is an Equal
Employment Opportunity Agency.
