         Subject: FY 2006 Annual Report on the Cooperative Threat Reduction Program

         Under section 1308 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2001
         (Pub. L. 106-398), the Department of Defense (DOD) is to submit an annual report to
         Congress on its Cooperative Threat Reduction (CTR) program no later than the first
         Monday in February of each year. The report should include a 5-year plan that
         discusses the amount and purpose of funding needed over the term of the plan and a
         description of efforts conducted by the United States to ensure that CTR assistance is
         fully accounted for and used for its intended purposes. The act requires the
         Comptroller General to assess this 5-year plan and the description of efforts to
         account for CTR assistance within 90 days of the report's submission to Congress.
         The Department submitted its CTR annual report for fiscal year 2006 to Congress on
         February 23, 2005, and we provided our findings to your staff on May 23, 2005.'

         We analyzed the 2006 report to determine whether (1) the 5-year plan addresses
         legislative requirements and presents accurate information, and (2) the accountability
         section addresses legislative requirements and presents accurate information.
         Enclosed is information provided to your staff presenting our assessment of the CTR
         annual report submitted for fiscal year 2006 (see enclosure).



         'We refer to the section of the CTR annual report for fiscal year 2006 titled Cooperative Threat
         Reduction (CTR) Program Activities and Assistance as the 5-year plan and the accountability
         section. This section includes both the 5-year plan and the fiscal year 2004 accounting activities. These
         sections were consolidated in the FY 2005 report at GAO's recommendation.
