The state auditor has assembled a team to review privacy concerns stemming from the surveillance company Banjo. But an audit of the platform could become irrelevant as lawmakers look to nix state contracts entirely.
"[We're getting] the best minds together with the best backgrounds to help us determine that path forward," Dougall said.
