  Mr. Chairman and Members of the Subcommittee:

       We are presenting today the financial requirements to carry

  out the responsibilities of the General Accounting Office for

  fiscal year 1980.

       The request that we are supporting today is for $206,763,000.

  This will fund 5,350 staff years. It is an increase of $17,506,300

  over our FY 1979 obliqational authority and the supplemental fundinq

  that we have requested for that year. Of this total increase of

  $17.5 million, $6.2 million is necessary to fund 168 additional

  staff years for workload increases which we must meet and over which

  we have virtually no control. The balance of the increase--$11.3

  million--is required to support our current operations.

       The GAO Justification of Fstimates for Fiscal Year lqpn,

  which has already been given you, details the basis for our

  request and the manner in which we plan to use all of the resources

  that we have requested for that year. I would like in my statement

  today to point uo the reasons that I believe it is important for

  GAO to be funded at this increased level and to briefly describe

  and illustrate the kinds of workload increase that we now know

  we must meet in FY 1980. I will also discuss the extent to which

  we have kept the requested increase to a minimum through olans
