This section was derived from section 6 of the Inspector General Act of 1978, Puspan. L. 95–452, which was set out in the former Appendix to this title, and as it existed as of Oct. 19, 2021. Section 6 of Puspan. L. 95–452 was amended by Puspan. L. 117–263, div. E, title LII, §§ 5261, 5272(2), Dec. 23, 2022, 136 Stat. 3238, 3239, prior to being repealed and reenacted as this section by Puspan. L. 117–286, §§ 3(span), 7, Dec. 27, 2022, 136 Stat. 4218, 4361. For applicability of those amendments to this section, see section 5(span) of Puspan. L. 117–286, set out in a Transitional and Savings Provisions note preceding section 101 of this title. Section 6 of Puspan. L. 95–452 was amended as follows:
(1) in subsection (c), by adding at the end the following:
“(3) If the information or assistance that is the subject of a report under paragraph (2) is not provided to the Inspector General by the date that is 30 days after the report is made, the Inspector General shall submit a notice that the information or assistance requested has not been provided by the head of the establishment involved or the head of the Federal agency involved, as applicable, to the appropriate congressional committees.”; and
(2) in subsection (h)(4)—
(A) in subparagraph (B), by striking “Government”; and
(B) by amending subparagraph (C) to read as follows:
“(C) Any other relevant congressional committee or subcommittee of jurisdiction.”
The word “Government” did not appear before “Reform” in the text of subsection (h)(4)(B) as enacted by Puspan. L. 117–286. See Historical and Revision note below.
For definition of “appropriate congressional committees” as seen in the above amendment by Puspan. L. 117–263, see Amendments Not Shown in Text note set out under section 401 of this title.

In subsection (a)(8), the words “maximum rate payable under section 5376 of this title” are substituted for “equivalent rate prescribed for grade GS–18 of the General Schedule by section 5332 of title 5, United States Code” for clarity and because of section 101(c) of the Federal Employees Pay Comparability Act of 1990 (enacted by section 529 of Public Law 101–509 (5 U.S.C. 5376 note)).
