Highlights

On June 21, 2005, we testified at the Subcommittee on Economic Development, Public Buildings, and Emergency Management Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure's oversight hearing on the judiciary's ability to pay for current and future space needs. This report responds to a June 23, 2005, request in which Congress asked additional questions about the Federal Buildings Fund (FBF) and the judiciary's efforts to manage its space needs. To respond to these questions, we primarily relied on our previous work and knowledge of these areas. We prepared this response during June and July 2005 in accordance with generally accepted government auditing standards. Because our response is primarily based on previously issued products, we did not seek agency comments on a draft of this report.
