AI Summary

  • Core Issue: The Area Agency failed to obtain and review the required audited financial statements from a subrecipient, leading to noncompliance.
  • Impacted Requirements: Annual monitoring of subrecipients mandates a review of their auditor's reports.
  • Recommended Follow-Up: Establish a process to ensure timely collection and review of all necessary reports from subrecipients.

Finding Text

Criteria: As part of the annual monitoring of subrecipients, a review of the subrecipients auditor?s report should be conducted. Condition: In testing one of four subrecipient monitoring files completed by the Area Agency, it was noted the Area Agency did not obtain and review the audited financial statements of the sub-recipient. We consider this to be a finding of noncompliance with the monitoring requirement. Questioned Costs: $0. Cause and Effect: Area Agency relied on the subrecipient to provide the report once completed and due to turnover at the subrecipient, the report was not sent. Recommendation: We recommend the Area Agency create a process to ensure all reports are obtained and reviewed. Views of Responsible Officials: Management agrees with this finding and response is included in the Corrective Action Plan.
