Bill to encourage timely state audit is a needed step

DECEMBER 14, 2017 | by Editorial Board | THE HERALD-DISPATCH (WEST VIRGINIA)

Editorial, includes “The penalty included in the bill is a fine of $100 each day that state agencies would have to pay if they turn in information after an Oct. 31 deadline, and the agencies couldn't resort to using federal dollars to pay it. … Of course, if that's not enough incentive for agencies to report in a timely manner, there's also the recourse that Gov. Jim Justice mentioned when word of the sanctions came out in July. He said at the time that 'heads will roll' because of the tardy audit, although there's been no word that anything like that happened.”
