National Endowment for the Arts Office of Inspector General Semiannual Report to Congress

The OIG updated the agency's top management challenges, issued a mandatory report to the Congress on the status of NEA’s implementation of the Cybersecurity Act of 2015, issued a report on our review of a Single Audit involving an NEA grantee, and collaborated with the NEA to establish a more collaborative and disciplined audit follow-up process to facilitate resolution of OIG recommendations. Finally, we referred two Freedom of Information Act requests to NEA for processing, evaluated seven hotline inquiries and took appropriate action to address the inquires, and completed a policy review as required by the IG Act. The annual financial statement and FISMA audits are in progress and will be completed by their respective deadlines.
