What’s in it

It also removes the rules that required state agencies to use a board of arbitration to settle legal fights with each other. Additionally, it gets rid of the specific rule that defined exactly when an audit begins.1
Read the official explanation
This bill relates to the commencement of audits, information made available to the auditor of state, and disputes between governmental agencies. The bill strikes or repeals provisions enacted by the general assembly in 2023 Iowa Acts, chapter 103 (SF 478). Specifically, the bill strikes prohibitions on the receipt and disclosure of certain information by the auditor of state except under certain circumstances, and makes conforming changes. The bill also strikes a requirement that litigation between state constitutional and statutory offices be submitted to a board of arbitration and a requirement that a board of arbitration for disputes between state governmental agencies resolve disputes within 60 days. The bill repeals a provision defining when an audit or examination begins for the purposes of Code chapter 11 (auditor of state).
