Text of Recommendation
Determine: (a) whether its use of FSA funds to pay for telephone minutes for inmates not participating in or on a waitlist for FSA programs was consistent with the purpose for which the FSA funds were appropriated and (b) whether its transfer of time-limited funds to the Trust Fund in excess of its cost for providing telephone minutes for inmates inappropriately extended the period of availability of these funds. Depending on the outcome of these determinations, make appropriate notifications to the Office of Management and Budget and take remedial action as necessary.
