Audit or Investigation by the State Clause Samples

The 'Audit or Investigation by the State' clause grants the state the authority to review, examine, or investigate the records, activities, and compliance of a party involved in a contract or agreement. Typically, this clause allows state representatives to access relevant documents, financial records, and operational procedures to ensure adherence to legal, regulatory, or contractual requirements. Its core practical function is to promote transparency and accountability, enabling the state to detect and address any potential misuse of funds, fraud, or non-compliance with the terms of the agreement.
Audit or Investigation by the State. The state auditor or the department may conduct an audit or investigation of any entity receiving funds from the State directly under this contract or indirectly through a subcontract under this contract. Acceptance of funds directly under this contract or indirectly through a subcontract under this contract acts as acceptance of the authority of the auditor to conduct an audit or investigation in connection with those funds. An entity that is the subject of an audit or investigation must provide the auditor with access to any information the auditor considers relevant to the investigation or audit.
