But we re- ported that each of the agencies experienced some procedural difficulties in administering these awards. We did not make specific recominendations to the three agencies in our report. In lieu of this, we are writing this letter to share a few of our observations about SBA's bonus system and to outline some reccmmrendations you may wish to consider. SECOND BONUS CYCLE FOR FISCAL YEAR 1980 PEEFOPMANCE SEA paid bonuses for performance in the first 6 months of fiscal year 1980. At the time of our review, it planned to again pay bonuses for the second half of fiscal year 1980 performance in the fall of 1980 with fiscal year 1981 money.
