"Nick" Peet. ‘‘Causes of alleged food stamp fraud will be referred to our investigation unit by our workers in the field and from the public - at - large, and an average of 100 in vestigations per month will be conducted during the next year," Peet said. “The primary purpose of our heightened effort in this area is to weed out those who are abusing the food stamp system and to dis courage others from committing fraud in the future. “Past experience reveals ttiat less than one per cent of all Oregon food stamp households are committing fraud; our intent is to zero in on those tew so that the taxpayer has confidence that these benefits are only going to those who are legitimately eligi ble," Peet continued. The Emergency Board of the Oregon State Legislature recently allocated funds for additional staff to investigate food stamp fraud on a state-wide basis. Over $50,000 is projected to be saved in the next 12 months. The purpose of the National Food Stamp Program is to enable low-income households to buy more food of greater variety to im prove their diets. To purchase food stamps, participants pay a sum of money based on their fam ily size and net monthly income. Presently, 63,313 Oregon house holds are receiving food stamp benefits.
