Summary

The Peer Review Oversight Committee approved the Dec. 12, 2025 meeting minutes and unanimously approved the draft 2025 PROC annual report (one abstention on minutes); the committee delegated authority to Chair Fausto Hinojosa to make final edits before the board presentation.

At its Feb. 25 meeting, the Peer Review Oversight Committee moved and approved two procedural items: adoption of the Dec. 12, 2025 PROC minutes and approval of the draft 2025 PROC annual report.

Minutes: Member Jennifer Benjamin moved to adopt the Dec. 12, 2025 meeting minutes and Nick Peterson seconded. Roll-call voting recorded approvals from a majority of members with one abstention from Alan Giddleston; the chair declared the motion carried.

Annual report: Michelle Center (CBA staff) presented the draft 2025 PROC annual report and said staff had incorporated December feedback—editing for grammar and clarity and correcting data, time-period and report-title discrepancies. The draft also notes that firms with alternative practice structures may be reviewed by the NPRC and includes recommendations to monitor the California peer-review pipeline and track firms that resign from the program. Member Allen Gittleson moved to approve the draft and member Jennifer Benjamin seconded; a roll-call vote approved the motion and the committee delegated to Chair Fausto Hinojosa authority to make any necessary edits prior to presentation to the board.

Next steps: Staff will finalize the report text under the chair’s delegated authority and present the report to the full California Board of Accountancy at its March 2026 meeting.
