PRIVACY AND CIVIL LIBERTIES OVERSIGHT BOARD

Payment Integrity Information Act of 2019

As stated in the Analysis of Systems, Controls, and Legal Compliance section of the
“Management’s Discussion and Analysis” of this AFR, the Board operates under one
program with no activities that are susceptible to the threshold amounts stated in the
Payment Integrity Information Act of 2019. The Board performs a risk assessment at least
once every three years with the end goal of determining whether the program is or is not
susceptible to significant improper payments. The PCLOB’s last risk assessment, conducted
in 2018, indicated that none of PCLOB’s programs were susceptible to significant improper
payments. PCLOB will conduct its next risk assessment in 2021 and will perform another
risk assessment sooner if a program has a significant change in legislation or the agency
receives a significant increase in its funding.
The Board upholds its responsibilities to improve financial and administrative controls and
procedures to identify, assess, and address fraud risks as required by PIIA, as described in
the Fraud Reduction Report that follows.
