C. The Planning Process
 


This Performance Plan was developed as part of the ongoing planning process that responds to the 1993 Government Performance and Results Act. The plan was communicated to Congress in four steps. First, the Preliminary 2001 Annual Performance Plan was submitted to Congress in February 2000. The 2001 Plan was amended thereafter to reflect the commentary of both the General Accounting Office (GAO) and the Office of Inspector General, and the 2001 Annual Performance Plan was submitted to Congress and the American people in September 2000. Third, the plan was reviewed during the preparation of last year’s 2000 Performance Report included as Chapter 5 of the 2000 Comprehensive Statement. Indicators and subgoals in the 2001 Plan were reevaluated at that time and adjusted to reflect actual 2000 results and the experience of the first half of the year. The 2000 Comprehensive Statement, containing updated goals and subgoals for 2001, was submitted to Congress in March 2001. And last, if necessary, correspondence has been sent to Congress to provide information on any needed changes to the plan.
