U.S. Insular Areas: Development Strategy and Better Coordination Among U.S. Agencies Are Needed

Report Date Feb. 7, 1994
Report No. NSIAD-94-62
Subject
Summary:

U.S. policy supports the economic development of the U.S. insular areas and the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands, which includes American Samoa, the Northern Mariana Islands, Guam, and Palau. The U.S. lacks, however, specific objectives for its development programs, no clear overall strategy to attain its goals, and no formal mechanism for coordinating the activities of the many federal agencies with programs in the islands. Although the Commerce Department reports that U.S. outlays for the insular areas totaled about $1.5 billion in fiscal year 1992, the U.S. government lacks supporting data for these expenditures. The Interior Department has proposed creating an interagency committee to coordinate federal policy and activities. In GAO's view, an interagency group focusing on policy, strategy, and U.S. government coordination could substantially improve economic conditions in the insular areas and U.S. government management of resources being delivered to the areas.
