According to the HUD/OIG website:

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Inspector General is one of the original 12 Inspectors General authorized under the Inspector General Act of 1978.

We are committed to our statutory mission of detecting and preventing fraud, waste, and abuse and promoting the effectiveness and efficiency of government operations. While organizationally we are located within the Department, we operate independently with separate budgetary authority.

This independence allows for clear and objective reporting to the Secretary and the Congress. Our activities seek to:

Promote efficiency and effectiveness in programs and operations;
Detect and deter fraud and abuse;
Investigate allegations of misconduct by HUD employees; and
Review and make recommendations regarding existing and proposed legislation and regulations affecting HUD.

The Executive Office and the Offices of Audit, Investigation, Counsel, and Management and Technology are located in Headquarters. Also, the Offices of Audit and Investigation have staff located in eight regions and numerous field offices.
