Mr. Chairman and Members of the Subcommittee:

     I appreciate the opportunity to be here today to discuss legislation

currently under consideration by your Subcommittee, The Materials Policy,

Research, and Development Act of 1979, and certain amendments that have

been suggested to that measure by your Subcommittee Staff. With me today

are Mr. John Hadd, the Senior Group Director of our Materials Branch,

Mr. Robert Kline of his staff and -Ms. ?hyllis Scheinberg who is a Presidential

Management Intern working in my office.

     As you know, the subject of materials policy has been of deep personal

interest to the Comptroller General. His concern for these issues led him

to establish a Materials Branch within the Energy and Minerals Division

of GAO in 1976. He has personally testified and spoken numerous times on

the importance of materials, and the need to establish a viable policy process

:o meet the challenges which these issues will present to this country in

the near future. On his behalf, we commend the Subcommittee for its

willingness to take the initiative on this important national issue.
