OIG-20-A-03 Status of Recommendation Recommendation 1: We recommend that NRC enhance its internal control and detective procedures surrounding DATA Act submissions.
Procedures should include reviewing all records in File C and verifying that they have corresponding transactions in Files D1 and D2. Additionally, NRC should consider increasing the size of samples selected for record level testing between Files C, D1, and D2.
Agency Response Dated March 27, 2020: Agree. The Office of Administration (ADM) will work with the Office of the Chief Financial Officer (OCFO) to enhance internal controls and detective procedures surrounding DATA Act submissions. Procedures will include reviewing all records in File C and verifying they have corresponding transaction in Files D1 and D2. Additionally, ADM and OCFO will consider increasing the size of samples selected for record level testing between Files C, D1, and D2.

This recommendation will be closed when OIG verifies that ADM has coordinated with OCFO to enhance its internal control and detective procedures surrounding DATA Act submissions, including reviewing all records in File C and verifying corresponding transactions in Files D1 and D2; and possibly increasing sample sizes for record level testing between Files C, D1 and D2.
