Finding Text

THERE IS A LACK OF SEGREGATION OF ACCOUNTING DUTIES THAT ENABLES THE SAME INDIVIDUALS TO HAVE ACCESS TO BOTH PHYSICAL ASSETS AND THE RELATED ACCOUNTING RECORDS OR TO ALL PHASES OF A TRANSACTION.

Corrective Action Plan

THE DUTIES WILL BE SEGREGATED AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE AND THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS WILL REMAIN INVOLDED IN THE FINANCIAL AFFAIRS OF THE NETWORK TO PROVIDE OVERSIGHT AND INDEPENDENT REVIEW FUNCTIONS.
