Tony,

I suspect someone in the IRS was aware of the report.  But what are
the consequences for not following the law and associated
responsibilities – the answer is not much.  Much like the Executive
Order (EO) on “Managing Government Records” there is a lot of blister
about the federal government’s effort to deal with records - agencies
must do this and that.  But when you dig deeper you will finder there
are no penalties for not complying.

As I have noted in a previous post the Federal Agency IGs and the GAO
will probably issue additional reports although maybe not – I remember
seeing an article that many of the IGs say they need additional
funding to audit this additional requirement. But chances are no one
will be fired and agencies will not see their funding reduced for not
meeting the date and objectives of the EO.  The “offending” officials
will most likely retire in lieu of receiving a reprimand or other
forms of punishment.
