An audit report was filed on July 20, 2009 on the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) oversight of the correction of Health Code Violations at restaurants. The audit determined whether DOHMH had adequate internal controls to ensure that conditions that led to health code violations being issued to restaurants are corrected in a timely manner. It was determined that DOHMH's internal controls regarding the correction of health code violations need to be strengthened. DOHMH inspections of suspect restaurants were not always carried out in a timely or thorough manner, and its inspectors were not always adequately tracked. Recommendations were made to rectify these issues.
