Report To The Secretary Of Agriculture


Agriculture's Second-Year

Implementation Of The Federal

Managers' Financial Integrity Act


GAO reviewed the processes used by 23 federal
departments and agencies to implement the Federal
Managers' Financial Integrity Act of 1982. The act
was intended to help reduce fraud, waste, and abuse
across the spectrum of federal government opera-
tions by requiring agencies to assess and annually
report to the President and the Congress on the
adequacy of their internal controls and accounting
systems.


This report highlights the progress made and prob-
lems encountered by the Department of Agriculture
in its second-year implementation of the act. The
report focuses on Agriculture's evaluation of in-
ternal controls and reviews of accounting systems
and the improvements it is making as a result of
identified internal control weaknesses. GAO makes
recommendations in areas where Agriculture could
further enhance its efforts to implement the act.
