Issue Description In the FY 2002 audit reports, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI); the Offices, Boards, and Divisions (OBDs); the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS); and the Working Capital Fund (WCF) were reported by the auditors as having material weaknesses in their compliance with certain federal accounting standards. Included were findings related to accounts payable and general accrual accounting, general and seized property, and accounting for reimbursement and other revenue. |
||||||
What We Will Do About It The Justice Management Division (JMD) will revise procedures and provide guidance and training to those processing obligation and revenue data. These issues will be a heavy area of emphasis in the Department's early 2003 financial management training efforts. The FBI will hire additional staff for its financial statement preparation process and revise its procedures for recording and reviewing obligation and property data. The INS is updating its corrective action plans to eliminate or diminish the weaknesses in its accounting practices during FY 2003. |
