Payments made during that period were made from the Child Care Revolving Fund, and you ask whether that Fund may be reimbursed for those payments under the new authority. For the reasons set forth below, we conclude that the CAO should use funds appropriated for salaries and expenses to reimburse the Child Care Fund for the applicable payments made on or after October 1, 2002. BACKGROUND While Congress was considering eleven of the thirteen fiscal year 2003 appropriations bills, it passed a series of continuing resolutions to keep the government functioning. The original continuing resolution, Public Law 107-229, was enacted on September 30, 2002, to provide funds for the continued operation of the relevant departments and agencies under the authority and conditions provided in the 'The Department of Defense Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2003 (Pub. L. No. 107-248) and the Military Construction Appropriation Act for Fiscal Year 2003 (Pub. L. No. 107-249) were enacted into law on October 23, 2002.
