Federal Accountability

Federal accountability refers to the responsibility of government officials and agencies to act in the public's best interest and to be answerable for their actions and decisions. It ensures that taxpayer money is used effectively, laws are followed, and public services are delivered properly. Mechanisms for accountability include audits, oversight by legislative bodies, transparency initiatives, and the ability of citizens to seek redress. Ultimately, federal accountability aims to build trust between the government and the public by promoting transparency, integrity, and responsiveness in governance.
