Welcome to the Florida Inspectors
General web site.I
am privileged to serve as Florida’s Chief Inspector General,
appointed in January 2007 by Governor Charlie Crist.It is truly an honor to be part of a profession that
serves such an important role in ensuring that the people of
Florida are receiving fair value for their tax dollars.As mandated by the Florida
Inspector General Act
of 1994, our mission is to promote economy, efficiency, and
effectiveness in state government and detect, deter, and prevent
fraud, waste, and abuse. Every
state agency has an inspector general who achieves their mission
through conducting professional and independent investigations,
audits, and reviews. Our goal is to enhance public trust
in government.
This site serves as a resource for
federal, state, and local inspectors general to share best
practices and inform the public about our achievements and
ongoing initiatives.
It’s everyone’s responsibility to
report fraud, waste, and abuse.Your involvement plays a vital role in us achieving our
mission.As such,
this site provides a link to each state agency inspector general
where information can be obtained and complaints filed.This site also provides on-line complaint forms that can
be submitted directly to the Office of the Chief Inspector
General.
Together, I am
confident that we can continue to make certain that Florida
government utilizes resources wisely, and ensures that the
public interest is served.
