Good morning Committee Members, im dr. Derek kerr, a whistleblower. An audit of the program is a good idea but it should not be a peer review audit. That would just buy into the biases and weaknesses that all Whistleblower Programs have. It would be important to get to an whistleblower advocacy organization, such as the Government Accountability project in washington d. C.

There are a couple that may have confused the meaning a little bit of the sentence. For the most part, you can figure what it is and theyre bad for the agreement, and some of the tenses werent right.
