(U.S. Government Accountability Office) Since 1993, the U.S. government has provided more than $6.3 billion in bilateral assistance to Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza. This aid ceased as of Jan. 2019, but the Biden administration has announced its intent to resume funding. For FYs 2015-19 assistance spending, the U.S. Agency for International Development ensured that the awards it funded directly went to individuals and organizations that were checked for links to terrorism. However, USAID did not ensure that awards these entities made to others, known as subawards, were compliant with anti-terrorism requirements. If funding resumes, we recommend that USAID (1) verify that prime awardees have procedures to ensure compliance with anti-terrorism requirements before making subawards and (2) conduct post-award compliance reviews in time to make corrections.2021-04-01 00:00:00Full Article
