Statutory Text
(a) Oversight.—For fiscal year 2026, 30 days prior to the initial obligation of funds for the bilateral West Bank and Gaza Program, the Secretary of State shall certify to the Committees on Appropriations that procedures have been established to assure the Comptroller General of the United States will have access to appropriate United States financial information in order to review the uses of United States assistance for the Program funded under the heading “National Security Investment Programs” for the West Bank and Gaza.

How the Date Is Worked Out
- Enacted Feb. 3, 2026 (Pub. L. 119-75).
- The provision is a condition on funds or authority: the duty arises before the agency acts, so it has no calendar deadline.

Not publicly verifiable

- No public document located that shows delivery.
Evidence Searched
- GovInfo Congressionally Mandated Reports collection: 1,209 packages listed; titles searched for Middle East terms; 55 State, Defense, Treasury and executive-office summaries checked for citations to Pub. L. 119-75 (0 found) (Oct. 17, 2026)
- Federal Register API: phrase “UNRWA”: 4 document titles searched (Oct. 17, 2026)
- MEF hand review: evidence.json, items with a link and a note on what the document shows (Oct. 17, 2026)
A status of “Reported late by GAO, committee or agency” appears only with a linked GAO, committee or agency statement. Reports sent only to committees, or in classified form, leave no public trace; their absence here is not evidence of a missed deadline.
Review
- Machine-extracted by rule from the public law text; awaiting named human review.
