REPORT BY THE U S,



General Accounting Office


Improved Collections Can Reduce

Federal And District Government

Food Stamp Program Costs



Only $650,000 of the $2.7 million owed by
food stamp vendors has been collected in the
District of Columbia, and the District esti-
mates that only $235,000 of the balance is              114830
collectible.

Minimal amounts are collected from recipients
who are overissued stamps, and the District
has no system to identify certain errors or to
monitor the progress of collection activities.
For the 5-month period ended June 1980, only
$13,500 was collected of claims totaling
$643,000.

GAO makes recommendations to the Mayor
to strengthen claim identification and to alle-
viate other problems.
