OIG independently conducts audits, evaluations, and other reviews of GAO’s programs and operations and makes recommendations to promote the agency’s economy, efficiency, and effectiveness. The OIG also investigates allegations of potential fraud, waste, mismanagement, or other serious problems in GAO's operations—including the possible violation of any law or regulation.
The Inspector General selects, appoints, and employs such personnel as may be necessary to carry out the mission and responsibilities of the OIG.
