The Inspector General Act of 1978, as amended, created independent audit and investigative units — Offices of (the) Inspector General — at 57 Federal agencies. In 1981, the President's Council on Integrity and Efficiency (PCIE) was established by Executive Order. An Executive Order in 1992 reaffirmed the PCIE. The PCIE was an interagency committee chaired by the Office of Management and Budget's Deputy Director for Management.
