At the request of Senator Charles Grassley, our office reviewed the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation’s (DFC) nondisclosure policies, forms, agreements, and related documents to ensure conformity with the anti-gag provision of the Whistleblower Protection Enhancement Act of 2012(WPEA).

DFC's CEO should ensure all settlement agreements that contain nondisclosure provisions are coordinated with OGC and contain the required WPEA anti-gag provision. | |||||
3 | No | $0 | $0 | ||
DFC's CEO must ensure the complete anti-gag provision is posted on the DFC website, along with a list of the controlling Executive orders and statutory provisions, as required by the WPEA. While DFC must post the provision to the external website, the OIG recommends that DFC post the required language on the internal website, as well. |
