    Nomination for Inspector General of the Department of Health and Human
    Services
    April 1, 1993

        The President announced today that he will nominate June Gibbs
    Brown, a former Inspector General at the Department of Defense, NASA,
    and the Department of the Interior, to be Inspector General of the
    Department of Health and Human Services.
        ``HHS is the biggest civilian Agency of the Federal Government,''
    said the President, ``and it is imperative that it be managed as
    efficiently as possible. That is one of the central tasks that Secretary
    Shalala has taken on, and I am very pleased to be nominating someone of
    June Gibbs Brown's stature as Inspector General.''

    Note: A biography of the nominee was made available by the Office of the
    Press Secretary.
