GSA Approval Of Expenditures

Under The Former Presidents Act

Has Been Reasonable



While several unusual office expenditures for
former Presidents Nixon and Ford were
noted, GAO believes that the General Services
Administration has been reasonable under ex-
isting legislative guidelines in determining
whether to approve expenses.

If the Congress believes some of the expendi-
tures are inappropriate, further legislative
guidance should be provided to the General
Services Administration.

GAO repeats recommendations made in an
earlier report on the Ford/Carter transition
that would clarify the distinction between ex-
penses that should be paid from Presidential
Transition Act funds or from Former Presi-
dents Act funds.

This report was made at the request of the
Subcommittee on Civil Service and General
Services, Senate Committee on Govermental
Affairs.
