handle is hein.gao/gaobackzm0001 and id is 1 raw text is: An United States General Accounting Office Washington, D.C. 20548 Health, Education and Human Services Division B-270488 November 14, 1995 The Honorable Alan K. Simpson Chairman The Honorable John D. Rockefeller IV Ranking Minority Member Committee on Veterans' Affairs United States Senate The Honorable Bob Stump Chairman The Honorable G.V. (Sonny) Montgomery Ranking Minority Member Committee on Veterans' Affairs House of Representatives On September 30, 1995, the President signed Public Law 104- 31, a Continuing Resolution for fiscal year 1996 that included funding for the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). As you know, 38 U.S.C. 8110(a) (4) requires that we report on several actions the Director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) is required to take in response to each law making appropriations to VA. Specifically, the Director of OMB must -- authorize VA to employ at least the number of employees for which funds were appropriated in its medical care, medical and prosthetic research, and medical administration and miscellaneous operating expense accounts; -- provide VA with funds appropriated for these employees; and -- certify these actions to the Comptroller General and the Senate and House Committees on Veterans' Affairs not later than 30 days after the President signs the appropriation law. In a letter dated November 6, 1995, the OMB Director provided written certification that OMB had indeed provided to VA all funds authorized by the Continuing Resolution and that it had authorized not fewer than 206,154 full-time- equivalent employees (FTE) for the three medical accounts. This FTE level is identical to that requested by VA in its GAO/HEHS-96-67R Fiscal Year 1996 VA Certification
