Report To The Congress

OF THE UNITED STATES





Federal Civilian Audit

Organizations Have Often Been

Unsuccessful In Obtaining

Additional Staff

The problems disclosed in a 1976 GAO report
that were associated with obtaining sufficient
audit staff in Government agencies persist to-
day. In the past 5 years, agency audit organ-
izations frequently have been unsuccessful in
obtaining additional staff. This situation is
hampering the efforts of two Offices of In-
spector General in their reviews of fraud and
abuse in Government and will create problems
for other Inspector General offices established
recently.

The Office of Management and Budget should
develop guidelines to assist Federal agency
management in determining the appropriate-
ness of the size of their audit staffs. Also, the
Congress should inquire about the adequacy
and effectiveness of Federal internal audit
staffs at agency oversight and appropriations
hearings.
