In the latest version of Senate Bill 1645, the references to performance audits and the Auditor General were clarified. The previous text included a reference title that has now been removed for simplicity. This change is significant because it makes the bill easier to understand and focuses directly on the substance of the proposed audits without unnecessary formalities.
