President Obama is expected to name 42 year old Daniel Werfel to the position.
As of this week, it's up to a new temporary commissioner, Danny Werfel, to find out.
He named White House budget official Daniel Werfel to replace the acting IRS commissioner ousted on Wednesday.
On Friday, the new acting commissioner, Danny Werfel, released a statement on the forthcoming report criticizing the Anaheim meeting.
Werfel said he also was frustrated and urged patience to allow the various investigations underway to work through the process.
Mr. Obama chose Daniel Werfel, the controller of the Office of Management and Budget, equivalent to the government's chief financial officer.
His appointment is effective Wednesday, and Mr. Werfel has agreed to serve through the end of fiscal year on Sept. 30.
And again, I would point you to the briefing that was done I believe last week in which Danny Werfel addressed this.
"This conference is an unfortunate vestige from a prior era, " Werfel said.
Werfel is scheduled to make his first congressional appearance as acting commissioner Monday when he appears before a subcommittee of the House Appropriations Committee.
Danny Werfel is Controller of the Office of Federal Financial Management.
Werfel was named as Controller of Office of Federal Financial Management of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) by the President in July 2009.
George told the House panel that he and Werfel would meet next week to discuss recommendations in his report for better training and management of the IRS tax-exempt unit.
They follow three previous hearings by House and Senate panels, and the matter also is under investigation by the Justice Department, the Treasury inspector generals office and Werfel in his new capacity.
When Congress returns from a weeklong recess on Monday, Danny Werfel is scheduled to appear before a House Appropriations subcommittee in his first congressional testimony since becoming acting IRS commissioner last week.
Werfel, a veteran of both Republican and Democratic administrations, began his new job Wednesday with a message to IRS staff that called for working together to restore public trust in the agency.
Daniel Werfel, a controller for the Office of Management and Budget, told a Senate panel last week that furloughs won't happen until after agencies negotiate with unions, and that's not expected to be finished until after March 1.
With that in mind, while it is mostly unheard of for an Acting IRS Commissioner to be named as IRS Commissioner, there are rumors that Werfel had been discussed as a possible replacement for former Commissioner Doug Shulman.
Rep. Hal Rogers, the chairman of the House Appropriations Committee who sat in on his panel's Financial Service's subcommittee on Monday, made clear that he would assess the effectiveness and commitment by Werfel to uncover the source of the wrongdoing when considering IRS funding for next fiscal year.
