Obama Treasury Department May Have Skirted Anti-Deficiency Act, Watchdog Finds
Government Executive | December 11, 2017
The Treasury Department in fiscal 2015 “potentially violated” the Anti-Deficiency Act and other statutes with reimbursements for shared services, prematurely moving monies before interagency agreements were in place, the department’s inspector general found. The watchdog’s audit of the Obama-era Treasury Office of Budget and Travel focused on Treasury’s interoffice transactions as well as its shared services arrangements with 34 internal and external agencies.
