The SIGIR continues to coordinate oversight activities for Iraq reconstruction programs through
the Iraq Inspectors General Council (IIGC). Established by the CPA-IG on March 15, 2004, the IIGC
provides a forum for discussion and collaboration among the inspectors general and staff at the
many agencies involved in using and overseeing the Iraq Relief and Reconstruction Fund (IRRF).
At IIGC meetings, representatives from member organizations exchange details of current and
planned audits. This helps to identify opportunities for collaboration and to minimize duplication
of oversight efforts. Members also update each other on their Iraq staffing plans and share
personal insights into the logistical challenges of performing oversight work in Iraq.
On November 4, 2004, the most recent IIGC meeting was held in Arlington, Virginia. The next
meeting is scheduled for February 2005.
These are the members of the IIGC:
- Special Inspector General for Iraq Reconstruction (Chair)
- Department of State Inspector General (Co-Vice Chair)
- Department of Defense Inspector General (Co-Vice Chair)
- Department of the Army Inspector General
- U.S. Agency for International Development Inspector General
- Department of the Treasury Inspector General
- Department of Commerce Inspector General
- Department of Health and Human Services Inspector General
- Defense Contract Audit Agency
- U.S. Army Audit Agency
- Government Accountability Office (Observer Member)
