The proposed Bill No. 140 aims to establish a working group and an autonomous office dedicated to uncovering fraud and waste within state government. The working group will study and recommend legislation to prevent the waste of taxpayer dollars by fostering partnerships between state agencies and private providers, with the goal of improving service delivery and reducing costs. This group is required to submit a report with its recommendations to the relevant committee by December 31, 2025.

Additionally, the bill proposes the creation of an office with the authority to investigate and prosecute claims of fraud or waste within state agencies and services provided on their behalf. This office will also review the use of taxpayer dollars in nonprofit programs and assess the use of state government facilities to identify areas of concern. The bill emphasizes the importance of accountability and efficiency in government spending, aiming to protect taxpayer interests.
