The Fraud Prevention and Accountability Act aims to strengthen the government's ability to prevent fraud and ensure the integrity of federal financial programs, particularly those related to pandemic relief. It establishes a permanent Inspector General for Fraud, Accountability, and Recovery within the Department of the Treasury, enhancing oversight and accountability for federal funds. A key provision of the act is the creation of the Bureau of the Fiscal Service, which will manage the "Do Not Pay" system to help identify and prevent improper payments.
