The State Department has delegated certain responsibilities related to debt collection and waiver of claims to the Director of Financial Policy, Reporting, and Analysis. These duties, previously overseen by the Comptroller, involve managing debts owed to the Department. The delegation allows for the collection, settlement, and waiver of these debts but does not permit further re-delegation. This authority is formalized under various U.S. laws and regulations and was published in the Federal Register.
Simple Explanation
The State Department has given the job of handling money that people owe to them to a special leader called the Director of Financial Policy. This person can decide how to collect or forgive these debts, but they can't give this job to anyone else.
