STATEMENT OF
DONALD L. SCANTLEBURY

BEFORE THE
SUBCOMMITTEE ON GOVERNMENTAL EFFICIENCY
AND THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA
COMMITTEE ON GOVERNMENTAL AFFAIRS
UNITED STATES SENATE
ON
LPROPOSED INCREASE IN FUNDS AUTHORIZED
FOR THE TEMPORARY COMMISSION ON FINANCIAL
OVERSIGHT OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA]
Mr. Chairman and Members of the Subcommittee:
We appreciate your invitation to be here today to present
our views on S. 905. If enacted, S. 905 would amend Public
Law 94-399, approved September 4, 1976, entitled An Act to
provide for an independent audit of the financial condition of
the government of the District of Columbia to authorize an
additional 22 million dollars for the Temporary Commission on
Financial Oversight of the District of Columbia.
We support S. 905 because we believe that without it
the Commission will be unable to fulfill the responsibilities
assigned to it by Public Law 94-399. In essence, Public
Law 94-399, as amended, requires the Commission, through con-
tractors, to (1) improve the District government's financial
planning, reporting, and control systems; (2) prepare proce-
dures for ongoing training programs for District government](ViewImageLocal?handle=hein.gao/gaobadyef0001&div=1&collection=&method=preview&ext=.png&size=3)
