Semiannual Report To The Congress for period ending September 30, 2013
During this period, we closed 74 investigations involving fraud or corruption related to the Department’s programs and operations, securing more than $44.8 million in settlements, fines, restitutions, recoveries, and savings. In addition, as a result of our investigative work, criminal actions were taken against a number of individuals, including school officials—people who cheated the students they were in positions to serve. We also issued 15 audit-related reports, making recommendations to improve program operations.
