INTRODUCTION
This is the financial audit of the Correctional Industries, a component of the adult division of the Illinois Department of Corrections. Correctional Industries operates manufacturing, service and agricultural industries within the adult correctional centers. Its purpose is to replicate a free world work environment to the greatest extent possible, while operating within a budget that does not exceed income, maximizing the number of inmate assignments, and providing customers quality goods and services at a competitive price.
Our audit was performed for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the financial statements of the Correctional Industries. A compliance audit will be performed for the two years ending June 30, 2000.
AUDITOR’S OPINION
Our auditors state that the June 30, 1999 financial statements for the Correctional Industries are fairly presented in all material respects.
