In his seventh special message for fiscal year 1981, dated March 17, 1981, the President proposed 81 rescissions totalling $11.1 billion in budget authority that had been made available for various programs and agencies. Section 1012(b) of the Impoundment Control Act requires that funds proposed for rescission be made avail- able for obligation unless the Congress completes action on a rescission bill within the 45-day period of continuous session of the Congress following the date such proposal is received by the Congress. For rescission proposals R81-38 thru R81-122, the 45-day period ended on May 17, 1981, with- out the Congress having passed such a bill. We have confirmed that on May 18, 1981, the budget authority covered by these rescission proposals was appor- tioned by the Office of Management and Budget to the proper agencies for allotment to the programs involved. Harry R. Van Cleve Acting General Counsel OGC-81-12 ...... ' / 7 ' (! '
