Legislature: committees; membership on a bipartisan, bicameral oversight committee to review departmental or agency audits; modify. Amends title of 2003 PA 1 (MCL 13.101) & adds sec. 2. TIE BAR WITH: SJR G'25

SB 734 creates a bipartisan, bicameral joint oversight committee to review state agency audits. It requires the committee to have 8 members (max 4 from one party), appointed equally by House and Senate leadership, and mandates quarterly meetings to examine all completed audit reports from the auditor general. The committee can make recommendations to the legislature but cannot issue binding orders, and the bill’s effectiveness depends on a separate constitutional amendment (SJR G'25) being adopted. This is a procedural change affecting how audits are reviewed, not a policy impacting citizens or services.
