Condition and Cause <br /> MTA did not deposit cash within two business days as required by County procedure. <br /> Effect of the Condition <br /> Depositing cash within two business days is not addressed in MTA cash handling policies and <br /> procedures which increases their risk exposure. <br /> Recommendation 3.2 <br /> "We further recommend Mass Transit management ensure deposits are made timely, both for <br /> contracted bus services and cash received by Mass Transit. Ideally, deposits should be made <br /> within 24 hours, but at least within two business days." <br /> Agency Action <br /> • Implemented dual control over cash counting and over reconciliation processes <br /> • Used a courier service to ensure cash was picked up daily or within two business days <br /> Audit Activity <br /> To verify status, we compared 18 bank deposit slips to Treasury receipts and found no exceptions. <br /> MTA made all deposits within two business days as required by County procedure. We also <br /> reviewed updated cash handling policies and procedure and found two-day deposits were <br /> addressed. MTA staff followed and enforced two-day deposits. <br /> Status: Implemented <br /> 12 1 Safeguard Assets <br />
