If the state administrative board, acting under section 3 of 1921 PA 2, MCL 17.3, transfers funds from an amount appropriated under this part and part 1, the legislature may, by a concurrent resolution adopted by a majority of the members elected to and serving in each house, inter-transfer funds within this part and part 1 for the particular department, board, commission, officer, or institution. Sec. 229. (1) If the office of the auditor general has identified an initiative or made a recommendation that is related to savings and efficiencies in an audit report for an executive branch department or agency, the department or agency shall report within 6 months of the release of the audit on their efforts and progress made toward achieving the savings and efficiencies identified in the audit report.
