Recommendations
Matter for Congressional Consideration
| Matter | Status | Comments |
|---|---|---|
| While FCSIC should continue to be required to repay the entire amount of government funds, until this occurs, Congress should require FCSIC to pay interest to the government on the unpaid balance of the original $260 million that was transferred to it in 1989. | No action has been taken at this time. |
