The Designated Federal Entities are listed in the IG Act, except that those agencies which have ceased to exist have been deleted from the list.
Federal Entities are required to report annually to each House of the Congress and OMB on audit and investigative activities in their organizations. Federal Entities are defined as “any Government corporation (within the meaning of section 103 (1) of title 5, United States Code), any Government controlled corporation (within the meaning of section 103 (2) of such title), or any other entity in the Executive Branch of government, or any independent regulatory agency” other than the Executive Office of the President and agencies with statutory Inspectors General. There are 2 deletions and no additions in the 2000 list of Designated Federal Entities and Federal Entities from the 1999 list published in the August 19, 1999, Federal Register. The Denali Commission was transferred to the Designated Federal Entities list.
The 2000 List of Designated Federal Entities and Federal Entities was prepared in consultation with the U.S. General Accounting Office.
