BY THE COMPTROLLER GENERAL

Report To The

Committee On Foreign Affairs

House Of Representatives


OF THE UNITED STATES




Economic Support Fund Assistance

To The Philippines




In support of tie 1979 Amendment to the Philippines-U S
Military Bases Agreement, the United States has provided
$S00 million in Economic Support Fund assistance to the
Pfjilippines over fiscal years 1980-1984 At the request of
thee Committee on Foreign Affairs, GAO reviewed the
assistance program and found that problems were encoun-
te ed in implementation Problems stemmed, in part, from
dulays in designating a Philippine government agency to
coordinate the program and from disagreements between
tht U S and Philippine governments over how much
control the United States should exercise over the aid

In June 1983, as a result of a reviewof the Agreement, the
United States pledged an additional $475 million in Eco-
nomic Support Fund aid over fiscal years 1985-1989 GAO
believes that key issues need to be resolved as early as
practicable to avoid a repetition of earlier implementation
problems These issues include (1) reaching agreement on
the purposes and uses of the aid, (2) deciding the type of aid
to be provided, and (3) designating the coordinating Philip-
pine government agency
