- The name and address of the entity receiving the subcontract or subgrant - The amount of the subcontract or subgrant - A description of the goods or services provided under the subcontract or subgrant - The total amount of federal funds received by the recipient and the percentage of those funds used for subcontracts or subgrants By requiring this additional reporting, the bill aims to increase transparency and accountability in the use of federal funds, ensuring that taxpayer dollars are being used effectively and efficiently.
