                 COMPTROLLER GENERAL OF THE UNITED STATES
                           WASHINGTON D.C. 20648





B-213283                                      March 23, 1984




To the President of the Senate and the
Speaker of the House of Representatives

     Pursuant to section 1015 of the Impoundment Control Act,
2 U.S.C. S 686, this letter reports a withholding of $30 mil-
lion in budget authority provided for grants for the education
of immigrant children, which the President previously has not
reported to the Congress as required by the Act. Because it
appears that there are no plans to obligate the funds before
they expire at the end of fiscal year 1984, we are reporting
the withholding as a rescission proposal. For purposes of
this report, the 45-day period referrei to in 2 U.S.C.
S 683(b) expires on May 17, 1984.

     The funds involved were appropriated by Public Law
98-151, the continuing resolution for fiscal year 1984. The
relevant portion of section 101 of Public Law 98-151 provides
as follows:

             (g) Notwithstanding any other provi-
          sion of this joint resolution, the follow-
          ing amounts are hereby made available, in
          addition to funds otherwise available, for
          the following purposes:



          GRANTS TO SCHOOLS WITH SUBSTANTIAL
          NUMBERS OF IMMIGRANTS

             For carrying out emergency immigrant
          education assistance under title V of
          H.R. 3520 as passed the House of Represen-
          tatives September 13, 1983, $30,000,000.

          97 Stat. 964, 973.
