   TH E EDUCATION FOR ALL HANDICAPPED CHILDREN ACT OF 197


     Mr. Chairman and Members of the Subcommittee. We are pleased

to have this opportunity to comment on the results of our review

of the implementation of the Education for All Handicapped Children

Act of 1975, commonly referred to as the Public Law 94-142 program.

Until May 1980, when responsibility for the program was transferred

to the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services in

the new Department of Education, the 94-142 program was adminis-

tered by the Office of Education's Bureau of Education for the

Handicapped (BEH). A draft of our report was sent to the Secretary

of Education in June 1980 and the Department's written comments

have been received. We'expect to issue the final report to the

Congress in several weekd.
