Principal among them are the extension of the protections and requirements of the act to nonstatutory audit units throughout the Government. and the limitation of one audit unit in each agency which does not have a statutory IG. The administration has praised inspectors general as key fighters in the war against fraud. waste. and abuse. and it opposes the establishment of these officials in two of the major Departments of the Government. If an IG is valuable at the Defense Department. why would one not be helpful at the Immigration and Naturalization Service? If the IG at the Small Business Administration does costeffective work. why wouldnt an IG at the Customs Service? Passage of the major new drug abuse initiative earlier this month prompts me to ask a further question: How can we responsibly spend vast sums of money on an allout war against drug abuse. and at the same time not put in place officials who could ensure that the money is properly spent?
