The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Namibia Office Implemented Our Prior Audit Recommendations

The U.S. Congress authorized the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) to receive $48 billion in funding for the 5-year period beginning October 1, 2008, to assist foreign countries in combating HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria. Congress authorized additional funds to be appropriated through 2018.

We have conducted a series of audits of organizations receiving PEPFAR funds from HHS, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). We selected CDC's Namibia office (CDC-Namibia) for review because a prior OIG audit determined that CDC-Namibia did not always properly monitor recipients' use of PEPFAR funds.

Our objective was to determine whether CDC-Namibia implemented recommendations from our prior audit.

CDC-Namibia implemented corrective actions for all three of the recommendations from our prior audit report. Accordingly, this report contains no recommendations.
