This final rule implements Pub. L. 110–252, Title VI, Chapter 1.
Effective Date: December 12, 2008.
Under the rule, a contractor must timely disclose to the relevant agency’s Office of Inspector General, in connection with the award, performance, or closeout of a Government contract performed by the contractor or a subcontract awarded thereunder, credible evidence of a violation of Federal criminal law involving fraud, conflict of interest, bribery, or gratuity violations found in Title 18 of the United States Code or a violation of the civil False Claims Act.
