appear before you today to discuss the results  of our review of

executive agency administrative budget procedures  and their

mpact  on the independence of agency  inspectors general (IGs).

Our review was conducted from January to July  1984 at 17 statu-

tequests for fiscal years 1982-85.  We met with  the IG and staff

in each agency to document the budget process and  to obtain

their opinions on the effect of the process on office  of inspec-

Sor general (OIG) independence.  We also interviewed  agency

ficials   who review the OIG budget requests to discuss  their

o1e  and the basis for changes to the OIG budget.  Finally,  we

et  with Office of Management and Budget  (OMB) budget analysts

o  discuss their role in the review process.
