Financial Audit Division Report 14-10 | Released March 21, 2014 |
The Department of Employment and Economic Development generally complied with and had controls to ensure compliance with certain legal requirements applicable to its major federal programs for fiscal year 2013. However, the department had some internal control weaknesses and noncompliance with federal requirements, as noted in the findings presented in this report, including two unresolved findings from the prior audit.1
Our scope included programs determined to be major federal programs for the State of Minnesota for fiscal year 2013, including Unemployment Insurance (CFDA2 17.225), Workforce Investment Act Cluster3 (CFDAs 17.258, 17.259, and 17.278), and Vocational Rehabilitation program (CFDA 84.126).
