Reference # and title: 2023-002 Internal Control and Compliance over Financial Reporting Federal program and specific federal award identification: AL Number Award Year FEDERAL GRANTER/ PASS THROUGH GRANTOR/PROGRAM NAME United States Department of Agriculture; passed through Louisiana Department of Education Child Nutrition Cluster: School Breakfast Program AL #10.553 2023 National School Lunch Program AL #10.555 2023 Condition: Louisiana Department of Education (LDOE) requires the School Board to complete monthly claims for reimbursement for meals and snacks served to eligible students within 60 days of the following the last day of the month covered by the claim. Required internal controls over these claims for reimbursement required that all data for the claim be maintained and complete and accurate. Additionally, internal controls require that reports be reviewed by someone other than the person completing the claim. In testing a sample of two months, it was noted that the School Board did not have a review process of the claim by a second person before the claim was submitted. It was also noted that the School Board did not include all students that received meals in requesting for reimbursement as well as the School Board used the wrong CEP percentage in the request for reimbursement. In reviewing the full year’s claims to determine the amount over/under requested, it was noted that these errors caused the School Board to under request for reimbursement in the amount of $20,044. Corrective action planned: The Lincoln Parish School Board hired a new CNP Supervisor in November, 2023 and a new CNP secretary/bookkeeper in December, 2023. CEP reimbursement claim training was conducted on-site with CNP department staff on December 13, 2023, by: - Stephanie Loup – Executive Director of Nutrition – Louisiana Department of Education - Misty Woods – Director of School Food Service– Louisiana Department of Education During this training, the CEP free claim percentage for 2023-2024 was validated as 83.78% and a mock claim worksheet was completed with new administrative staff. This percentage will be validated annually. Regarding the review process of the CEP claim, we have implemented a two-check verification method for this process. Step One is related to the bookkeeper’s responsibilities. The bookkeeper collects and fills out the CNP Reimbursement Claim form in the CNP Claim portal, prints the completed form, and then signs and dates the form before it is submitted to the CNP Supervisor. Step Two is related to the CNP Supervisor’s responsibility. The Supervisor will conduct final review of the report data. If the report is accurate, the Supervisor signs and dates the printed form and returns the form to the Bookkeeper for filing with claim records. Then, the official claim is submitted electronically by the Bookkeeper via the State CNP Claim portal.

Community Service Society (the Society) requires its subrecipients to submit their financial and progress program reports five days after the end of the reporting period. This is done so that the Society can review the underlying documentation in those reports to ensure that proper payments are made to the subrecipients and, in turn, proper and timely reports are filed by the Society with the State of New York. There are instances when, because of delays in receipt of information from the subrecipients, or information from the subrecipients needs to be revised, reports are submitted late to the State of New York. The Society notifies the State of New York when reports will be submitted late. In addition, the Society is working with its subrecipients to improve their reporting procedures, as well as the timeliness and accuracy of their reports. This will result in the Society improving the timeliness of its reporting to the State of New York.
