Multiple U.S. Agencies Provided Billions of Dollars to Train and Equip Foreign Police Forces (open access)

Multiple U.S. Agencies Provided Billions of Dollars to Train and Equip Foreign Police Forces

Correspondence issued by the Government Accountability Office with an abstract that begins "Over the past few years, the United States has increased its emphasis on training and equipping foreign police as a means of supporting a wide range of U.S. foreign-policy goals, including countering terrorists overseas and stopping the flow of narcotics to the United States. Funding for these activities has increased significantly since we last reported on these issues in 1992.

We defined "police" as all law-enforcement units or personnel with arrest, investigative, or interdiction authorities."

However, we identified information systems deficiencies affecting internal control over financial reporting, which, while we do not consider them to be collectively either a material weakness or significant deficiency, nevertheless warrant BPD management's attention and action. This report presents the control deficiencies we identified during our …
