If fraud took place in the 90s, the Dept of Justice should investigate.

The primary role of oversight committees is to determine if regulations/administrative policies/practices & procedures, etc. are being implemented and administered by the Executive Branch as intended by Congress (as in NOW...REAL TIME, not in the past). As I said, focusing on the past can provide an historical perspective, but is not the primary purpose of oversight.
