(a) In addition to other additional audits which the legislative post audit committee may direct, such committee may direct the audit of any state agency or agencies when so requested in writing by the governor or any member or committee of the legislature. Any such written request shall specify the desired object of the audit requested and the reasons therefor. In directing the post auditor to make any such requested additional audit of a state agency or agencies, the legislative post audit committee may modify the object and direct the details of the audit to be performed.
(b) In accordance with this subsection, the legislative post audit committee may reimburse travel mileage expense incurred by a member of the legislature to attend a meeting of the legislative post audit committee for the presentation of the report of a performance audit that was requested by such member of the legislature and performed at the direction of the legislative post audit committee. The reimbursement for such travel mileage expense shall be for each mile actually traveled by the usual route in going to and returning from the meeting of the legislative post audit committee at the rate fixed under K.S.A. 75-3203a, and amendments thereto, and shall be subject to any restrictions or limitations prescribed by rules adopted by the legislative post audit committee.

No travel mileage expense shall be reimbursed under this subsection for attendance at a legislative post audit committee meeting held during the time that the legislature is in session, unless the legislature has adjourned for a period of more than two days.
