The enclosed report is forwarded to your staff for information
and Use in preparation of your committee's views and estimates

agencies and prepared it in this form for your use as part
of our responsibility under Title VIII of the Congressional
Budget Act of 1974. Specifically, the Comptroller General is
required to: (1) develop and maintain standard classifications
for fiscal, budgetary and program-related information and (2)
assist committees in developing their information needs.
As requested in the past, we are again providing data for
the Departments of State, Commerce, and Justice. We want to
emphasize that the list of programs and activities in the
enclosed document is an effort to display budgetary information
at a level of detail most useful for your committee review and
markup. The budgetary data included in the report was obtained
directly from the agencies. Verification by us included com-
parison with data obtained from the Office of Management and
Budget's Budget Information System and the Appendix to the
President's 1982 Budget.
For each program or activity identified, we have displayed
the authorizing legislation (public law and U.S. Code citation);
the budgetary information (funding authorization, budget authority,
obligations and outlays); and the funding expiration date as
specified in the legislation. The hulget data is prov-51- for
fiscal years 1980 (actual), 198] (estimate) and ]9S2 (1resident's
budget request). Enclosure I provides a further discussion of
this listing.
