Report To The Congress


OF THE UNITED STATES


Limited Progress Made

In Consolidating Grants

To Insular Areas


Title V of Public Law 95-134 allows Federal
agencies to consolidate grants to U.S. Insular
Areas--Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa,
Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands, and the
Government of the Northern Mariana Islands.
Grant consolidation provides a means to min-
imize the administrative and financial burdens
associated with the Federal assistance system.

Because title V is discretionary, not all Federal
agencies have chosen to consolidate grants,
and those that have are approaching consoli-
dation differently and conservatively. Further,
Federal agencies are restricting the Insular
Areas' flexibility to redirect funds to meet
local needs and are applying varying interpre-
tations to the provisions of title V.

To deal with these issues, the Congress should
amend title V.
