Posted November 17, 20177 yr comment_38582 Yesterday, I found something entitled: Antideficiency Act Reports - Fiscal Year 2017. It was timely and I posted it on the News section of the Home Page. To my surprise, federal law requires agencies to submit violations of the Act to GAO. GAO collects them and posts them to its site on an annual basis. I don't know when GAO began posting these. I've seen questions about the act posted here. GAO provides a summary of each agency report and then links the agency letter it received to the case. There are 10 to 11 years of these annual reports with quite a few individual cases and reports. If someone wants to get a decent grasp of this type of violation, this should be helpful. I have added a link to GAO's web page that includes these reports on this site's Bona Fide Needs Rule page since it includes links to the Red Book. You can find the Bona Fide Needs Rule page by going to the "Legal" tab that this forum provides, placing your cursor on it, and looking to the left.
