It has been nearly 20 years since New York State first passed the Governmental Accountability, Audit and Internal Control Act of 1987. In so doing, the state created a new model for government accountability. The new law challenged those in charge of the Empire State's vast network of agencies and public authorities to certify that public resources were being used as efficiently and effectively as possible for the good of all New Yorkers. Internal control in this sense was used as a catch phrase for all the systems and practices that organizations routinely have in place to optimize productivity and diminish the likelihood of otherwise preventable crises.
