UNAUTHORIZED APPROPRIATIONS

AND EXPIRING AUTHORIZATIONS


                              JANUARY 8, 1999


                                 PREFACE


This report by the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) satisfies the requirements of section
22-1(b) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985. The purpose of the
report is to help the Congress adopt authorizing legislation that should be in place before it
considers the 13 regular appropriation bills for fiscal year 2000 (which begins October 1, 1999).

Ellen Hays of CBO's Special Studies Division prepared this report under the supervision of
Arlene Holen. The author gratefully acknowledges the assistance of analysts in CBO's Budget
Analysis Division and the budget offices of various agencies, as well as numerous committee


                  ERRA TA

The number given in Appendix A for total unauthorized
appropriations for programs last authorized by P.L.
102-534 (Reauthorization of Omnibus Crime Control
and Safe Streets Act Programs) incorrectly included
some portions of the Justice Department's State and
Local Law Enforcement Assistance account that remain
authorized through 2000 pursuant to P.L. 103-322, the
Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of
1994. The correct entry is $1,842,750,000.

This error is also reflected in the appropriation amounts
in Tables I and 2, which show 1999 appropriations with
expired authorizations for programs under the
Jurisdiction of the House and Senate Committees on the
Judiciary. The amount in Table I (House Judiciary)
should be $14,089,092,000; the amount in Table 2
(Senate Judiciary) should be $14,115,291,000. The
correct totalfor those tables is $100,931,786,000. To
reflect the correct total, the first sentence in the second
paragraph of the section titled Programs Funded in
Fiscal Year 1999 with Expired Authorizations of
Appropriations should read: The Congress
appropriated almost $101 billion for flscal year
1999 .... 

This electronic version contains corrected text and
tables.
