Casso Staff Director l# cS - Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition and Forestry United States Senate Dear Mr. Casso: Subject: Program and Budgetary Information for Committees' Views and Estimates on President's Budget for Fiscal Year 1981 (PAD-80-69) The enclosed report is forwarded for your information and use in preparation of your committee's views and esti- mates on the President's fiscal year 1981 budget proposals for the Senate Budget Committee. The General Accounting Office has obtained this data from the executive agencies and prepared it in this form for your use as part of its responsibility under Title VIII of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974. Specifically, the Comptroller General is required to: (1) develop and maintain standard classifica- tions for fiscal, budgetary and program-related information and (2) assist committees in developing their information needs. Accordingly, we have attempted to identify all the Federal programs and activities that are within your com- mittee's legislative jurisdiction using available source documents such as the Budget Appendix, agency budget justifications, and legislation and legislative histories. To a large extent this information has been verified by committee representatives and executive agency officials. We want to emphasize that the list of programs and acti- vities in the enclosed document is an effort to display budgetary information at a level of detail most useful for committee review and mark-up. The listing is not a program inventory in its current form although it will be the basis for development of a Federal government-wide program inventory. The budgetary data included in the report was obtained directly from the agencies. Veri- fication by us included comparison with data obtained from the Office of Management and Budget's Budget In- formation System and the Appendix to the President's 1981 Budget. , . '2 6(972888)
