The Ministry acknowledges this finding and notes that the inability to reconcile the staff list was primarily due to the system migration from 4Gov to the new FMIS, which required additional time to review and make necessary adjustments. As a corrective measure, all personnel must be entered into the system using their RMI Social Security Number, legal names, and confirmation from the Budget Division regarding the funding source to support payroll. The Budget Division is now required to upload all supporting documents into FMIS prior to establishing and releasing funds. Any changes to the approved budget narrative must include an official communication from the grantor, which must also be uploaded. Requests will not be processed without the required documentation.

View of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: Management acknowledges this finding related to documentation retention for a single participant-related expense during fiscal year 2023. While isolated in nature, management recognizes the importance of complete documentation to support allowability under Uniform Guidance. We updated procedures to require receipt and verification of all required documentation prior to charging costs to federal awards. We implemented standardized documentation checklists to support consistent compliance. We reinforced documentation standards through staff training and supervisory review to ensure proper adherence. Supervisory staff conduct periodic file reviews prior to reimbursement and drawdown activity. Corrective actions have been implemented and are operating on an ongoing basis.
