                       DEMOCRATIC  RESISTANCE

 Mr. Chairman, Members of  the Subcommittee:

      I am pleased to be here  to discuss the management of the

 $27 million  in humanitarian assistance authorized for the

 Nicaraguan democratic resistance.   My statement will concentrate

 on our review of the accounting  and management procedures and

 controls to ensure that  the funds are being spent in accordance

 with the law's  intent.

      Before I discuss  the results of our review, I would like to

 point out some  limitations on our presentation today.  We have

 been informed by the Department  of State that certain

 information about  this program is classified.  For example,

 State has told us the  following matters are classified:

 specific quantities of  items purchased, attitudes or roles of

 countries in the region with  respect to this program, and

 attempts to arrange  for delivery of goods purchased in the

 United States.
