OFFICE OF GENERAL COUNSEL

                                            May 18, 1981




   To the President of the Senate and theE 11111I I
   Speaker of the House of Representatives             115318

        The purpose of this letter is to report on the status of
   budget authority that was proposed, but rejected, for rescis-
   sion. In the President's sixth special message for fiscal
   year 1981, dated March 10, 1981, the President proposed three
   rescissions totalling $128.0 million in budget authority.
   The funds had been appropriated to the Department of Interior
   for the Youth Conservation Corps (R81-35), to the Treasury
   for investments in the National Consumer Cooperative Bank
   (R81-36) and to the Bank for the Self-Help Development and
   Technical Assistance fund (R81-37).

        Section 1012(b) of the Impoundment Control Act requires
   that funds proposed for rescission be made available for obli-
   gation, unless the Congress completes action on a rescission
   bill within the 45-day period of continuous congressional ses-
   sion following the day such a proposal is received by the Con-
   gress. For rescission proposals R81-35, R81-36 and R81-37,
   the 45-day period ended on May 10, 1981, without the Congress
   having passed such a bill.

        We have confirmed that on May 11, 1981, the subject bud-
   get authority was apportioned by the Office of Management and
   Budget to the Department of Interior, Department of Treasury,
   and the National Consumer Cooperative Bank, and that the funds
   were allotted to the program.
