To fulfil this objective the subcommittee seeks to identify and eliminate waste, fraud, and abuse in the federal government, no matter how small, and to proactively pursue mechanisms to prevent waste of taxpayer dollars. Further this subcommittee is responsible for providing oversight of the federal emergency and disaster response and preparedness apparatus.
