It functions as an independent oversight and investigative arm of the UN, with authority to audit projects, review procedures, and examine possible misuse of resources. By directing their complaint to this specialized unit, the complainants have ensured that their concerns will be considered by the very body mandated to hold the UN to account to its own operations and funtions.
