      "summary": "The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act (P.L. 116-136) includes a variety of oversight provisions designed to increase the information available to Congress regarding the federal government\u2019s implementation of the CARES Act and response to the COVID-19 pandemic more generally. Specifically, the CARES Act:\nestablishes a Congressional Oversight Commission,\nestablishes a Special Inspector General for Pandemic Recovery,\nestablishes a Pandemic Response Accountability Committee made up of certain agencies\u2019 inspectors general,\nprovides additional financial resources for certain Offices of Inspectors General,\ncreates additional reporting and oversight duties for the Government Accountability Office, and\ninstitutes new reporting requirements on a variety of agencies based on provisions in the CARES Act.\nAs agencies begin to implement the CARES Act and as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to develop, understanding the federal resources and information available can help Congress support both its own oversight activity and the consideration of potential future legislation to respond to COVID-19. \nThis report is a reference guide to the oversight mechanisms in the CARES Act and a launching pad for deeper consideration of oversight-related issues. This report complements other CRS products, such as a list of CRS experts covering issue areas related to other provisions of the CARES Act:\nCRS products: Other CRS products on the COVID-19 response efforts can be found on the CRS Coronavirus Disease 2019 resource page at https://www.crs.gov/resources/coronavirus-disease-2019.\nCRS subject matter experts: For a list of points of contact for CRS\u2019s congressional clients with specific questions regarding the particular authorities and appropriations in the CARES Act, see CRS Report R46299, Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act: CRS Experts, by William L. Painter and Diane P. Horn.",
