This document presents an audit of the United States Commission on Civil Rights. The following aspects were examined: (1) compliance with the requirements of Public Law 100-202, which imposes hiring regulations; (2) regional offices; (3) civil rights monitoring; (4) consultants; (5) temporary employees; (6) mission-related external services contracts; (7) Schedule C employees (these are GS-15s or below with policymaking roles or confidential working relationships with top appointed officials); (8) special assistants to Commissioners; and (9) Commissioners. As of March 31, 1988, the Commission was found to be in compliance with each of the fiscal year 1988 line item appropriations and other limitations. However, the Commission needs to recompute its obligations for temporary employees: the Commission's original calculations did not include amounts for all temporary employees or benefits for any of them. These omissions may have caused the Commission to unknowingly exceed the legal limitation by the end of the fiscal year. The Chairman of the Commission had used 75 percent of his billable days as of April 9, 1988. His availability to participate in Commission activities during the second half of the fiscal year is limited to his remaining billable days. A table illustrates the data. (BJV)
