Finding Text

Late Single Audit Submissions The Department has not timely submitted the Single Audit Reporting Packages for the year ended June 30, 2022.

Corrective Action Plan

On October 2021, The Finance Division operated without a Finance Director until February 2022. The Budget Director, Jeanette Díaz is the person in charge of the Finance office. From that moment on, every effort began to be made to obtain a budget allocation to be able to contract the Single Audit processes. Is the first time that our agency have to performed the Single Audit and the Finance Division had not reported the need to prepare this report.
