   Foreign Operations Subcommittee

   Dear Mr. Chairman:                            LM089678

        Pursuant to your request of October 23, 1973, GAO has
   examined current overseas vehicle assignment policies of the
 Agency for International Development (AID).

        Our examination, which was centered on the AID Missions
   in Vietnam, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, and Jordan, disclosed
   that AID had instructed these Missions to study their policies
   on the use and control of Government-owned vehicles and to re-
   port on the steps they were prepared to take toward implement-
   ing the recommendations of your Subcommittee. Enclosed are
   the results of our examination.

        In summary, we found that each Mission had reevaluated its
   policies and had reported back to AID on its current practices
   and justification therefor. The Missions in Vietnam and
   Cambodia continue to provide vehicles for home-to-work, off-
   duty, and recreational purposes without charge; in Thailand a
   charge is imposed for such use; in Laos a charge is imposed for
   off-duty and recreational use of vehicles, but home-to-work
   transportation is furnished without charge; and the Mission in
   Jordan does not provide home-to-work transportation and charges
   a rate of 12 cents a mile for recreational use.

        If we can be of further assistance to you in this matter,
   please let us know. We do not plan to distribute this report
   further unless you agree or publicly announce its contents.

                                Sincerely yours,




                         DepUtly Comptroller General
                                of the United States
