Do as I Say, Not as I Do March 10, 2016 Stephen Avery Seriously, 7% of DOD travel payments are “improper”? “DoD Component actions were not adequate to reduce estimated improper payments in the DoD Travel Pay program. The Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller)/Chief Financial Officer reported that estimated improper payment rates for the DoD Travel Pay program increased from 5.0 percent for FY 2012 to 6.5 percent for FY 2013 and 7.0 percent for 2014. The estimated rates missed the improper payment reduction goals for each of those years.” http://www.dodig.mil/pubs/report_summary.cfm?id=6833&utm_source=DoD+IG+Email+Update+-+Reports+and+Testimonies&utm_campaign=24114820f8-DoD_IG_Reports&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_3a17f8681e-24114820f8-277174597
