The bill proposes significant amendments to existing legislation concerning the management and regulation of financial practices, particularly within the Office of the Chief Financial Officer (OCFO) of the District of Columbia. Key changes include the insertion of new legal language that emphasizes transparency, accountability, and ethical standards in financial transactions. This includes provisions that prohibit OCFO employees from accepting gifts that could be perceived as bribes and mandates the reporting of any incidents of fraud or misconduct. The bill also establishes a zero-tolerance policy for such activities, reinforcing the need for compliance with contracting rules and regulations.

Additionally, the bill introduces a confidential hotline service for reporting allegations of misconduct, fraud, waste, and abuse, which is operated by an independent third-party organization to ensure anonymity. It outlines accessible channels for individuals to report concerns to the District of Columbia Office of the Inspector General, thereby enhancing oversight and accountability within the OCFO. The overall aim of the bill is to foster a culture of integrity and ethical behavior in government operations, ensuring that all financial activities are conducted in accordance with the highest standards of conduct.
