            COMPTROLLER GENERAL OF THE UNITED STATES
                     WASHINGTON, D.C. 20548



                                       April 9, 1976

B-115398






Speaker of the House  1/1
President of the Senate-

     We were furnished copies of deferrals which the
President submitted to the Congress on March 18, 1976,
in his 12th special message for fiscal year 1976 pur-
suant to the Impondment Control Act of 1974. The
special message transmt -six new deferrals and one
revised deferral. The President estimates that the
impoundments will reduce fiscal year 1976 outlays by
$61 million in the Department of Agriculture.

     The Impoundment Control Act requires us to review
each message and report promptly to the House and Senate
as to the facts surrounding each action, including the
probable effect thereof and, in the case of deferrals,
to render a judgment as to whether the action is in
accordance with existing legal authority. We are also
required to notify the Congress if supplementary in-
formation revising earlier messaqes necessitates changes
in the original reports submitted by GAO. Our comments
on each impoundment transmitted by the President's 12th
special message are enclosed.

                              Sincerely yours,




                        ACTING Comptroller %eneral
                              of the United States

Enclosure
