The system was originally approved on April 18, 1967. Subsequent to that approval the Immigration and Naturalization Service made significant changes to the design. As a result, the Assistant Attorney General for Administration formally re- quested our reapproval of this system on September 22, 1982. In evaluating the system design, we looked at the auto- matic data processing aspects primarily to determine their adequacy as to internal controls, audit trails, data integ- rity, and consistency with the accounting specifications. To maintain the approved status of the design, planned changes should be discussed with our representatives and, if deemed siqnificant, submitted formally for approval. We suggest that the Department's internal auditors periodically review the system to assure that it is operating in accordance with the approved design. At some future date we will examine selected aspects of the system and advise you as to whether it is functioning effectively and in accordance with our approval. We appreciate the association with the Department of Justice and the Immigration and Naturalization Service staffs and the hospitality extended during our review. Sincerely yours, Comptroller General of the United States cc: Mr. Guv K. Zimmerman Director, Audit Staff Department of Justice (931106)
