Summary

The Inspector General must alone hire and set pay for its officers and staff. The Inspector General also must hire and pay temporary experts and consultants when needed to do the job. On the same day the Chief Executive Officer sends any report to Congress, the CEO must also send that report to the Board of Directors. If that report includes audit reports, the CEO must send those audits to the Board too, put them on the agenda for the next scheduled Board meeting, and attend that meeting to explain them. If the Inspector General tells the CEO about a problem, abuse, or deficiency, the CEO must tell the Board on the same day.
