 To the President of the Senate and the                   126738
 Speaker of the House of Representatives

      On February 6, 1985, thefPresident's sixth special message
 for fiscal year 1985was submitted to the Congress pursuant to
 the I mpoundment Control Act of 1974. The special message
 proposes sixteen new rescission proposals totalling
 $1,047,089,569, nine revised rescission proposals totalling
 $386,829,000, twenty-one new deferrals of budget authority
 totalling $1,249,016,539, and eight revised deferrals of budget
 authority totalling $443,179,221. A copy of the President's
 listing of the proposed rescissions and deferrals in the sixth
 special message is enclosed.

     We have reviewed the sixth special message. Except as
noted below, we have identified no additional information that
would be useful to the Congress in its consideration of the
President's proposals and we believe that the proposed defer-
rals are in accordance with existing authority. Our report on
those proposals in the message which we believe require comment
follows.

     The President's statement of Other budgetary resources
does not include (1) an unobligated balance brought forward on
October 1, 1984 of $30,450 which is reflected in the apportion-
ment schedule for account 914/5100; and (2) $500,000 in antici-
pated reimbursements which are reflected in the apportionment
schedule for account 91X1700. The schedules reflect total
budgetary resources of $758,639,450 rather than $758,109,000 as
reported by the President.
