New York State Governmental Accountability,
Audit & Internal Control Act

(as posted on Comptroller's webpage "Internal Control" -- #1 "Internal Control Act")

In 1987, the Legislature enacted a law entitled New York State Governmental  Accountability, Audit and Internal Control Act of 1987. This act highlighted the need for  agency management to promote good internal controls and accountability in government.  The Legislature, recognizing the importance of internal control, updated and made the  Act permanent effective January 1, 1999 in Chapter 510 of the Laws of 1999. 

The internal control responsibilities of the various branches of government are codified as follows: 

State Agencies in Executive Law Article 45 (§§950-954)
(& includes Executive Chamber, Division of the Budget,
Comptroller & Attorney General), 

State Legislature in Legislative Law Article 6 (§§89-92), 

Judiciary in Judiciary Law Article 7-D (§249), 

Public Authorities in Public Authorities Law  Article 9 (§§2930-2932). 

The updated laws refined the concepts in the 1987 law to assure that the Act’s provisions were consistent 
with current  professional internal control standards and the practices of private and public organizations.
