§273 Professional responsibility and quality review

Summary

The Director of the Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services must investigate noncriminal claims of employee misconduct, corruption, and fraud when those matters are not handled by the Inspector General for the Department. The Director must also inspect how the bureau and its parts work, judge the quality of their operations, and report on the bureau’s management. When reviewing any bureau decision, the Director must look at whether the facts and legal conclusions are accurate, whether fraud or misrepresentation was involved, and how efficiently the decision was made.
