The Executive Committee is vested with the power to act on behalf of the Interstate Commission during periods when the Interstate Commission is not in session. The Executive Committee oversees the day-to-day activities managed by the Executive Director.
This policy applies to Commissioners, Compact Administrators, Deputy Compact Administrators, State Legal Representatives, and all persons engaged in the business of the Compact.
The policy is written to ensure that ICAOS funds are expended prudently and reasonably for the conduct of official business. They also ensure fair and equitable treatment of states by defining procedures for authorized training and technical assistance.
ICAOS supports a variety of projects to strengthen the compact process and public safety efforts.
Assistance may be requested for activities including operations, compliance, dispute resolution, information technology, and other ICAOS related business.
Following an ICAOS audit, or at any time, a state may request the National Office to analyze specific data regarding problematic or compliance areas to direct resources to the users in these areas. This method identifies focus areas and provides direct technical assistance in a manner that is efficient and does not place an additional burden on the compact office staff.
Any member state of the Interstate Commission for Adult Offender Supervision is eligible to apply for assistance. While ICAOS may not have funding available for a specific purpose, it may assist states in identifying other resources to meet a need.
Assistance is provided within the confines of the budget set forth and approved by the Executive Committee.
