AZ HB2343

Amends section 44-334 to prohibit evaluating department employees based on unclaimed property demanded or collected, and requires the department to develop metrics evaluating the accuracy of contingent fee contract auditor recommendations and whether they were accepted or approved.

Creates new section 44-340 requiring audits for unclaimed property enforcement to provide holders with a notice of rights including: department's final decision authority over auditor recommendations, corrections and appeals procedures, complaint procedures for improper service, and designated employee contact information.

Requires the Department of Revenue to issue a request for information by January 1, 2017, exploring feasibility of contracting for unclaimed property audits that are not contingent on the auditor recovering unclaimed property.
