The Inspector General audits compliance and reports to two committees
What the document says“Not later than one year after the date of the enactment of this section, the Inspector General of the Department of Homeland Security shall submit to the Committee on Homeland Security of the House of Representatives and the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation of the Senate a report containing an audit of compliance with the requirements of sections 2 and 3.”
The whole of new section 4. Within one year of enactment the Inspector General of the Department of Homeland Security submits a report to two committees, the Committee on Homeland Security of the House of Representatives and the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation of the Senate. The report contains an audit of compliance with the requirements of sections 2 and 3 of the amended Act. Section 3 is the section added just above; section 2 belongs to the older Act, which is not indexed here.
What the document actually says“Not later than one year after the date of the enactment of this section, the Inspector General of the Department of Homeland Security shall submit to the Committee on Homeland Security of the House of Representatives and the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation of the Senate a report containing an audit of compliance with the requirements of sections 2 and 3.”
A watchdog inside Homeland Security has to check the work. Then it has to send a report to two groups in Congress. The report is due one year after this part starts.
An audit is a close look at whether rules got met. Two parts of the older law are checked. One of them is the new part added just above.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
