Lieberman Ranking Minority Member Committee on Governmental Affairs United States Senate Subject: Observations on the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Fiscal Year 1999 Performance Report and Fiscal Year 2001 Performance Plan As you requested, we reviewed the 24 Chief Financial Officers (CFO) Act agencies' fiscal year 1999 performance reports and fiscal year 2001 performance plans required by the Government Performance and Results Act of 1993 (GPRA). In essence, under GPRA annual performance plans are to establish performance goals and measures covering a given fiscal year and provide the direct linkage between an agency's longer-term goals and day-to-day activities. Annual performance reports are to subsequently report on the degree to which those performance goals were met. This report contains two enclosures responding to your request concerning key program outcomes and major management challenges concerning the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Enclosure I provides our observations on HUD's fiscal year 1999 actual and fiscal year 2001 planned performance for the key outcomes that you identified as important mission areas for the Department. These key outcomes are increased home ownership; increased affordable, decent, and safe rental housing; improved community economic vitality and quality of life; and less fraud, waste, and error in HUD's programs. Enclosure II lists the major management challenges facing the Department that we and HUD's Inspector General identified; the Department's progress in resolving those challenges, as discussed in its fiscal year 1999 performance report; and the applicable goals and measures in the Department's fiscal year 2001 performance plan. Results in Brief Although HUD did not attain all of the specific goals set in its fiscal year 1999 annual performance plan, it generally made progress toward them, according to its fiscal GAO/RCED-00-211R HUD's FY 1999 Performance Report and FY 2001 Performance Plan
