PEER Report #227

A LIMITED OPERATIONAL REVIEW OF THE ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE CONTROL DIVISION, November 28, 1989, 17 pages

Internal accounting control and warehouse security weaknesses in the Tax Commission’s Alcoholic Beverage Control Division include inconsistent inventory procedures, unsupported inventory adjustments, inadequate controls over receipt of goods, and a lack of security over cash receipts. ABC also has not maintained warehouse security devices in proper working order. Some ABC personnel practices are not in accordance with the State Personnel Board’s policies and procedures, including the Tax Commission’s classification of warehouse workers and the promotion of certain classifications of employees.
