Highlights
GAO was requested to review staffing levels in the Department of Education and in the agencies affected by its establishment. Specifically, it was asked whether: (1) the affected agencies had increased their staffing levels during the 2-year period before Education was established to offset legislatively mandated reductions, (2) agencies that transferred personnel to Education decreased their staffs accordingly, and (3) using full-time equivalent work years as an annual staffing limitation is more effective than end-of-year personnel ceilings.
