handle is hein.gao/gaobabawm0001 and id is 1 raw text is: 4C4 Z __ __. . a' * * BY THE COMPTROLLER GENERAL I 3o o Report To The Chairman, Subcommittee On Crime, Committee On The Judiciary House Of Representatives OF THE UNITED STATES Justice Needs To Better Manage Its Fight Against Public Corruption In 1977 the Department of Justice designated public corruption--crimes by public officials-- as one of the priorities among its law enforce- ment activities. Justice had already established the Public Integrity Section as a focal point for coordinating its attack on public corrup- tion. GAO found that management and coordina- tion of public corruption activities by the Pub- lic Integrity Section need to be improved. The Section needs to effectively plan public corruption efforts and develop accurate and comparable data on these efforts. To get a better handle on the Department's efforts to combat white collar crime and public corrup- tion a step forward is being made by the Department through its recently established Economic Crime Enforcement Program. This program was too new to be evaluated. How- ever if it accomplishes the objectives estab- lished it should improve the planning and direction of public corruption efforts. GAO believes, however, that even though this program is an improvement over the existing system, the Department needs to develop an evaluation plan so that it can fully evaluate the success of the program and identify areas where improvements could enhance its efforts.
