DES MOINES – The Associated Press reported Tuesday that a division of the Iowa Department of Human Rights over-billed a state agency by about $25,000.
A fee of $40,000 was charged to the juvenile justice planning division to update a criminal history record database maintained by the Department of Public Safety. The actual bill should have been for $14,900.
According to the Associated Press, an state audit released Tuesday found poor record keeping and billing not supported by time sheets.
