Office of the Special Inspector General for Iraq Reconstruction (SIGIR): Government of Iraq Increasingly Funding Iraqi Security Forces Infrastructure Development, but Substantial U.S. Support Remains, July 26, 2008

  • “A congressional committee raised concerns that significant U.S.-appropriated money from the Iraq Security Forces Fund (ISFF) continues to be spent on infrastructure projects related to developing the Iraqi Security Forces and that the Government of Iraq (GOI) should shoulder more of the financial burden for infrastructure development. SIGIR evaluated: (1) the status of U.S.-appropriated ISFF funds used for infrastructure projects in Iraq, (2) factors affecting program execution and use of these funds, (3) spending plans for unobligated funds and unliquidated obligations, and (4) the factors indicating and affecting a shift toward greater use of Iraqi funding to support Iraqi Security Forces infrastructure projects. The Congress may wish to examine the MNSTC-I’s infrastructure spending plans for the remaining ISFF monies that have not yet been obligated or expended to identify further opportunities to transfer funding responsibility to the GOI—either on a full-funding or cost-sharing basis.”
