# Unauthorized Committee Audit Reports

The Commission audits a political action committee (PAC) or party committee when it appears not to have met the threshold requirements for substantial compliance with the Federal Election Campaign Act.

The audit testing determines whether the committee substantially complied with limitation, prohibition and disclosure requirements.
