GAO High-Risk Program
Gao ID: AIMD-94-72R January 27, 1994Since early 1990, GAO has been reviewing and reporting on government programs especially vulnerable to waste, fraud, abuse, and mismanagement. This report updates the 17 areas included in GAO's High-Risk Series issued in December 1992 and adds to the list the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), where billions of dollars continue be at risk due to long-standing organizational, systems, and staffing problems. In GAO's view, HUD warrants the special focus that comes with high-risk designation.
