handle is hein.gao/gaopfv0001 and id is 1 raw text is: U.S. GOVERNMENT ACCOUNTABILITY OFFICE 441 G St. N.W. Washington, DC 20548 September 29, 2023 The Honorable Mark Warner Chairman The Honorable Marco Rubio Vice Chairman Select Committee on Intelligence United States Senate The Honorable Michael Turner Chairman The Honorable Jim Himes Ranking Member Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence House of Representatives Status of Open GAO Recommendations Made to the Director of National Intelligence GAO's mission is to support the Congress in meeting its constitutional responsibilities, and in accomplishing that mission we make recommendations to improve the accountability, operations, and services of government agencies and increase the effectiveness of federal spending. In fiscal year 2022, our work yielded about $55.6 billion in financial benefits-a return of about $74 for every dollar invested in GAO.1 We also identified 1,262 other benefits-those that cannot be measured in dollars but that led to program and operational improvements across the government, including at the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI). The James M. Inhofe National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2023 included a provision for the Comptroller General to annually submit a list to the congressional Intelligence Committees and to the Director of National Intelligence (DNI) of all open recommendations made by GAO to the DNI.2 The provision also directs the DNI to submit a report of actions taken and actions the DNI intends to take in response to each open recommendation within 120 days of receiving the list. This report and its enclosures formally transmits and communicates the final results of our work. It describes DNI's (1) progress in implementing recommendations from GAO reports issued from July 2011 through September 15, 2023; (2) initial response to open recommendations; and (3) progress in implementing priority recommendations.3 Enclosure 1 1GAO, Performance and Accountability Report, Fiscal Year 2022, GAO-23-900398, (Washington, D.C.: Nov. 15, 2022). 2Pub. L. No. 117-263, § 6304 (2022). This provision requires the Comptroller General to submit the annual list no later than September 30, 2023 and each September 30 thereafter through 2028. 3Priority recommendations are those that GAO believes warrant priority attention from heads of key departments or agencies. They are highlighted because, upon implementation, they may significantly improve government operation, for example, by realizing large dollar savings; eliminating mismanagement, fraud, and abuse; or making progress toward addressing a high-risk or duplication issue.
