The head of each agency is required to report annually to the Secretary on the status of any programs or policies developed and implemented. The bill further provides that any agency head failing to comply shall forfeit 1% of the moneys appropriated for the operation of the agency as provided in the appropriation act. Such moneys shall be taken by the Comptroller and deposited into the Literary Fund.   View Full Text »
