STAATS, COMPTROLLER GENERAL OF THE UNITED STATES BEFORE THE LEGISLATIVE SUBCOMMITTEE, APPROPRIATIONS COMMITTEE UNITED STATES SENATE LM091288 ON BUDGET ESTIMATES FOR FISCAL YEAR 1973 FEB 2 8 19/Z MR. CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS OF THE SUBCOMMITTEE: We appreciate this opportunity to present our budget estimates and our plans for the operation of the General Accounting Office in FY 1973. In a separate volume, we have furnished details on the work programs, manpower, and funds proposed to support these plans. I would like to highlight the major factors which were considered in developing them. Our appropriation for FY 1972 is $87,108,000. The pay increase which became effective January 9, 1972, adds $2,100,000--raising the total budget estimate for this fiscal year to $89,208,000. We expect to fully utilize these funds. But in doing so we are reprogramming $1,040,000 by reducing the man-years to be financed, 111 below the number provided in our PY 1972 appropriation. We had decided to accept this reduction in line with the President's Government-wide economy moves instituted last August. However, Congress has recently passed two bills--The Federal Election Campaign Act and The Presidential Election Campaign Fund Act--which impose a major new workload on the GAO beginning this fiscal year, and which necessitate the use of our voluntary savings to finance this unforeseen requirement. As a result, we will require the full amount of the pay supplemental to cover the S.S percent pay increase.
