          BCONTRACTING OUT OF FEDERAL FUNCTIONS
                 BY THE EXECUTIVE AGENCIE
                         H.R. 4717


Mr. Chairman and Members of the Subcommittee:

     We appreciate the opportunity to share with the Subcom-

mittee our views on contracting out of Federal functions by

executive agencies.

     You have introduced H.R. 4717 which, if enacted, would

provide for adjustments to Federal personnel ceilings based

upon the extent that Federal functions are contracted out.

This bill is intended to clarify Government policy on the

relationship between contracting out and personnel ceilings,

and on yearend spending. We have reported to the Congress

on a number of studies related to the basic issue underlying

H.R. 4717--whether agencies of the Federal Government should

perform functions directly, using their own employees, or

contract with private enterprise for those functions.
