Section 7. Audits.--(a) The Department of the Auditor General shall have the power, and its duty shall be, to audit the accounts and records of every volunteer firefighters' relief association receiving any money under Chapter 7 of the act of December 18, 1984 (P.L.1005, No.205), known as the "Municipal Pension Plan Funding Standard and Recovery Act," as amended, as far as may be necessary to satisfy the department that the money received was expended or is being expended for no purpose other than that authorized by this act. Copies of all such audits shall be furnished to the Governor.
(b) If at any time the Department of the Auditor General shall find that any money received by a volunteer firefighters' relief association has been expended for any purpose other than those authorized by this act, it shall forthwith notify the Governor, and shall decline to approve any further requisition calling for payment to such volunteer firefighters' relief association, until an amount equal to that improperly expended shall have been reimbursed to the relief association fund.
