Perian Chief of Staff Committee on Merchant a l Marine and Fisheries House of Representatives Dear Mr. Perian: The enclosed computer printout is forwarded for your information and use in preparation of your committee's views and estimates report to the Budget Committee on the fiscal year 1980 budget. The General Accounting Office has prepared this information as part of our efforts to respond to the requirements in Title VIII of the Congres- sional. Budqet Act of 1974 that the Comptruller General (1) develop and maintain standard classifications for fiscal, budgetary and program-related information and (2) assist committees in developing their information needs. We have attempted to identify all the Federal programs and activities that are within your committee's jurisdiction using available source documents, such as the Budget Appen- dix and agency budget justifications, and in consultation with cognizant congressional and executive agency officials. We want to emphasize that the list of programs/activities in the enclosed document is an effort to capture the existing inventory of programs; it is not a standard classification of program and budget data. Also, the budget data was ob- tained directly from the agencies, and except for certain test checks that we performed, we relied on their input as to the accuracy and validity of the data. For each program or activity identified, we have dis- played the program authorizing and funding legislation (pub- lic law and U.S. Code citation) and the relevant budgetary information (authorization, budget authority, obligations and outlays). The requisite budget data are provided for fiscal years 1978 (actual), 1979 (estimate) and 1980 (President's budget request). IIII1111911111111 109462 A -79-5
