handle is hein.gao/gaobabnbf0001 and id is 1 raw text is: COMPTROLLER GENERAL OF THE UNITED STATES WASHINGTON D.C. 2054 B-209328 August 2, 1983 To the President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives On July 7, 1983, the President's ninth special message for fiscal year 1983 was transmitted to Congress pursuant to the Impoundment Control Act of 1974. The special message pro- poses one new rescission totalling $15 million and four new deferrals of budget authority totalling $34,795,142. This message was submitted after the Supreme Court handed down its decision, in Immigration and Naturalization Service v. Chadha (No. 80-1832, June 23, 1983), that a one-house legislative veto provision in the Immigration and Nationality Act was unconstitutional. Exactly what effect the decision has on the legislative veto mechanism in the Impoundment Con- trol Act and on the remainder of the Act remains uncertain. The President's submission of this message pursuant to the Act indicates that the Administration intends to treat at least the reporting requirements of the Act as still viable. We will continue to carry out our responsibility to review each message and report to the Congress as required by section 1014(b) of the Act. DEPARTMENT OF STATE R83-21 Bureau for Refugee Programs Migration and Refugee Assistance Amount proposed for rescission: $15,000,000 1931143 The funds are reportedly not needed because of lower than expected refugee flows. Based on the current legislative calendar, the 45-day period of continuous session during which the funds proposed for rescission may be withheld pending con- gressional consideration of a rescission bill will end on October 5, 1983. (The funds expire for obligation purposes on September 30, 1983.) ENERGY ACTIVITIES D83-76 Energy Programs Energy Conservation 122040 Amount deferred: $3,050,000 89X0215 I 0 GAo/oGc-83-14
