Merit Appeals Board March 29, 2018 <br />MR. BRILHANTE: Correct. Yeah. <br />MR. MASUDA: Sorry. <br />MS. NAMAHOE: It'sI appreciate the response to this particular part of the audit and the look <br />on my face is—what is your communication protocol? What are you planning to do going <br />forward to officially address the audit? Are you doing it just by element at a time? Is there ever <br />a time when you thinking of—we call back in the auditors? Is there is ado you have—what's <br />your goal on that? <br />MR. BRILHANTE: Great question in response to the audit. We've already been in <br />communication with the auditors. I think a communication was forwarded to the MAB <br />regarding our department's response to the audit. It was a initial response to the auditorsI <br />think that was sent out about maybe 6 weeks ago. So, I can pull up that document and just <br />resubmit it to the MAB. But my understanding was, is it was submitted to the MAB maybe <br />about 2 meetings ago. <br />MS. NAMAHOE: So, okay—and we also discussed that last month <br />MR. BRILHANTE: Correct. <br />MS. NAMAHOE: across the street. But do you have—after youI mean, at the time I think <br />you had three-quarters of the audit already addressed and corrected. Are you thinking of doing a <br />closeout—we did it, thank youI mean, what's your—have you thought about that, yet? Or <br />MR. BRILHANTE: Yes, we have. And that was part of our the communication. So, we <br />requested that the auditors come back and do a follow-up audit and an investigation of our <br />department. The auditors sent a response back to us and they said they're currently involved in <br />two other audits they have manpower issues. They anticipate they will be coming back to do a <br />follow-up investigation and audit of our department. They appreciated the progress report, but <br />they gave us a timeframe of about a year <br />MS. NAMAHOE: Okay. <br />MR. BRILHANTE: before they could actually get back to us <br />MS. NAMAHOE: Okay. <br />MR. BRILHANTE: —and conduct a follow-up audit. So, in that regards, we just told them <br />we'll continue to keep them updated as we address each of their recommendations and keep <br />them apprised of what's going on. <br />And then, we're more than happy to accommodate them once they're ready to come back and <br />perform the follow-up audit. <br />Page 16 <br />
