The Honorable Harrison H. Schmitt
Chairman, Subcommittee on Labor,
  Health and Human Services,
  Education, and Related Agencies
Committee on Appropriations
United States Senate

Dear Mr. Chairman:


Subject:


115605


Preliminary Information on Funding Commitments
From Comprehensive Employment and Training Act
Titles III and IV During Fiscal Year 1981
(HRD-81-109)


     This preliminary report relates to your April 17, 1981, letter
requesting answers to questions pertaining to grants and contracts
awarded by the Department of Labor from September 1, 1980, to late
January 1981, using Comprehensive Employment and Training Act
(CETA) titles III and IV discretionary funds. Generally, you were
concerned that awards from these funding sources were allegedly
made in substantial numbers during the closing months of the past
administration and that questionable actions took place diuring the
award process.

     In later discussions with your office, we agreed to obtain
information on a sample of titles III and IV discretionary awards
made during the period you were concerned about. Your office
agreed that our work would be limited to reviewing title III
awards administered by Labor's Office of National Programs (ONP)
and title IV awards administered by the Office of Youth Programs
(OYP), and that site visits to awardees would not be necessary.
We further agreed to consider only title III awards administered
and monitored by ONP and not those from that title which the
Office handles solely in a grant/contract approval capacity.
Information obtained on your questions and the sample awards re-
viewed to date is summarized below and detailed in the enclosures.

                                                            (204795)
