NOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION

Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:

Subsection 63I-5-201(4) requires the Utah State Board of Education (Board) to direct the establishment of an internal audit department for programs administered by the entities it governs; Section 53A-1-401 allows the Board to make rules to execute the Board's duties and responsibilities under the Utah Constitution and state law; and Subsection 53A-1-402(1)(e) directs the Board to develop rules and minimum standards regarding school productivity and cost-effectiveness measures.

Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:

No written comment has been received.

Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:

Rule R277-116 continues to be necessary because it outlines the role of the Audit Director, Superintendent, and agency in the audit process, and outlines the Board's procedures for audits of agencies. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
