This bill proposes to amend the Code of West Virginia by adding a new section, 4-2-13, which aims to combine the offices of the Legislative Auditor and the State Auditor into a single office. The effective date for this consolidation is set for July 1, 2025.
Under this new provision, all powers, duties, and responsibilities currently held by the Legislative Auditor will be transferred to the State Auditor's office. This change is intended to streamline operations and enhance the efficiency of auditing functions within the state government.
