October 2015

REPORT (PDF)     SUMMARY (PDF)

In January 2015, state law was amended to declare that periodic reviews should be conducted of programs, agencies, and departments and their responsiveness to the needs of the state’s citizens by an Oversight Committee of the Senate or House of Representatives.

The Senate Medical Affairs Committee directed the Legislative Audit Council to perform an audit of issues related to the Senate’s oversight of the S.C. Department of  Mental Health and report on the results by October 2015.

Our response was provided to the committee on October 29, 2015.
