WASHINGTON - Defense Secretary Robert Gates told Congress on Wednesday he is unhappy with the Pentagon’s oversight of its private contractors in Iraq, saying he’s dispatched a fact-finding team to investigate problems there.
“My concern is whether there has been sufficient accountability and oversight,” he told the Senate Appropriations Committee at a hearing called to discuss the administration’s request for additional war funding.
Gates said the Pentagon has sufficient legal authority to control its contractors. The issue, he said, is whether commanders have sufficient “means and resources” to exercise adequate oversight.
