Hannah Administrator, Agency for International Development Dear Dr. Hannah: This letter provides the results of our study and our recom- mendations relating to a tjLans h ,es nqto .e.ttI@,.egal ae validfde obl~g 14$ ando _igaj i4,Q o,funds. The transaction consisted of deobligating in August-1972 from the popula- tion accounts $10 million of prior-year supporting assistancqus, which had been used under the earmarking provision of Title X of the Foreign Assistance Act, and simultaneously obligating for the same proj ectsIU million of current-year population funds. Over a period of four fiscal years - 1968 through 1971 - AID obligated almost all of the $260 million earmarked for population assistance only, by Title X of the Foreign Assistance Act. Pursuant to Title X, these obligations were funded from available appropria- tions, such as Development Loans, Technical Assistance, and Supporting Assistance. Beginning in fiscal year 1972, a separate line item appropriation for the population program was made available and the use of other appropriations for population activities was discontinued. Nevertheless, in mid-1972, many of the obligations recorded in 1971 and earlier years for population activities remained in AIDts accounts as unliquidated obligations because the related activities had not then been completed. Also, in r-ld 1972, AID wanted to augment its fund availabilities for the supporting assistance program. To accomplish this, in August 1972 AID recorded in its population accounts a deobligation of $10 million of fiscal year 1971 and earlier years supporting assistance funds and simultaneously recorded for the same projects an obligation of $10 million of fiscal year 1973 population funds. -7JUg~Qc(H +
