“The Information and Audits Committee performs a very important function, serving as the House of Representatives’ eyes and ears in its mission of providing state government oversight and ensuring taxpayer dollars are not wasted on bloated bureaucratic administration,” said Rep. Williams. “Considering the importance of higher education to Athens-Clarke County, I am especially honored to take control of this vital subcommittee and begin working to ensure that the University System and the Technical College System is run in an efficient and professional manner.”
