He said that authorizing agencies were allowed to carry out work without a pre-existing contract, contracts were regularly being backdated, commissions were paid for services apparently not performed, there were improper advance payments, authorizations were not sought, contracts were being issued without prior financial authorization, and there was no longer a negotiation of prices or insistence on the use of the established government contracting prices.
Selon lui, les agences qui donnaient leur autorisation avaient le loisir d'effectuer du travail sans contrat préalable, des contrats étaient régulièrement antidatés, des commissions étaient payées en échange de services apparemment inexistants, il y avait des paiements anticipés irréguliers, on ne demandait pas les autorisations nécessaires, des contrats étaient émis sans autorisation financière préalable et on ne négociait plus les prix et enfin on n'insistait plus sur le recours aux prix contractuels établis par le gouvernement.
