In the latest episode of Veteran Oversight Now, VA Inspector General Michael J. Missal shares his thoughts on changes to federal oversight since the passage of the Inspector General Act in 1978, which established 12 presidentially appointed IGs in federal departments with a mission to provide independent oversight. The VA OIG was one of the original 12. He also discusses the VA OIG’s latest Semiannual Report to Congress that covered oversight work from April 1 to September 30, 2023. This edition also includes highlights of the VA OIG’s work from October 2023.
“As only the sixth Senate-confirmed VA Inspector General over the past 45 years, it is truly an honor and privilege to work on behalf of veterans and taxpayers. It is also a real honor and privilege to work with all of our staff to meet our mission of meaningful independent oversight. We had a great fiscal year 2023 and we look forward to an even more impactful fiscal year 2024.” – VA Inspector General Michael J. Missal
