AI Summary

This bill, titled the "Improving Public Housing Agency Accountability Act," aims to enhance oversight of public housing agencies that are under the control of a receiver or Federal monitor, which are individuals or entities appointed to manage an agency facing significant problems. Specifically, it requires these "covered public housing agencies" to annually report to the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) whether a receiver or Federal monitor is in place, when they were appointed, and their expected termination date, along with identifying the current monitor. Furthermore, the bill mandates that the Inspector General of HUD, within 180 days of a request from relevant House or Senate committees, must analyze the agency's compliance with agreements with HUD, the monitor's actions and any oversight gaps, the physical condition of the housing including health and safety compliance, any allegations of waste, fraud, or abuse by agency staff or contractors, and provide recommendations for improvement.
