                                   On June 12, 1997, you asked us to review the draft strategic plans
                                   submitted by the cabinet departments and selected major agencies for
                                   consultation with the Congress as required by the Government
                                   Performance and Results Act of 1993 (the Results Act). This letter is our

                                   Labor's strategic plan consists of a department-level document, which it

                                   for 15 of its component offices or units. As agreed with your offices, this
                                   letter includes our analysis of the overview and selected analyses of
                                   individual plans. As you requested, we will provide additional detailed
                                   analyses on individual plans submitted by the Employment and Training
                                   Administration (ETA), the Occupational Safety and Health Administration
                                   (OSHA), and the Employment Standards Administration (ESA) by the end of
                                   July.
