required the Secret Service, the Department of Defense (DOD),
and the Coast Guard to submit semi-annual reports to six
congressional committees on expenditures made pursuant to the
act. a review of the reports of the three agencies disclosed
several problems in implementing the act's reitursement and
reporting requirements. Host of these problems involved
uncertaint .es concerning which expenditures incurred by other
agencies are reinbursakle by the Secret Service and which
expenditures are to be included in the reports submitted to the
congressional cimmittees. As the focal point for the act's
implexentation, the Director of the Secret Service should:
consult with cognizant congressional committees to determine
whether they want the reports of expenditures restricted to
costs incurred for protection at non-Government properties or
information on the total cost of protection; resolve
misundeistandings as to which costs are reimbursable by the
Secret Service; advise the agencies which provide protection
assistance as to the understanding reached with the committees
concerning reporting requirements and provide modei guidelines
which agencies can use in issuing instructions to personnel; and
resolve agency accountability and settlement of accouaita by
encouraging timely billing for reimbursable services. (RES)](ViewImageLocal?handle=hein.gao/gaobaaxin0001&div=1&collection=&method=preview&ext=.png&size=3)
