                   DECISIONMAKING PROCESS

Mr. Chairman and Members of the Committee:

     I'am pleased to provide some preliminary findings regarding

GAO's review of the Federal parole decisionmaking process. Al-

though our work is not yet complete, we have identified many areas

that need management's attention.

     Our observations are based on work performed from June 1979

to February 1981. During that time, we performed detailed work at

the headquarters offices of the United States Parole Commission,

Bureau of Prisons, Federal Probation Division within the Adminis-

trative Office of the United States Courts, the Executive Office

of the United States Attorneys, and the Criminal Division within

the Department of Justice. We also did extensive work at the Parole

Commission's five regional offices; probation offices, district

courts, and U.S. Attorneys' Offices in 10 judicial districts; 15

Federal correctional institutions; two Organized Crime Strike

                               1
