As noted in your letter, you requested this information because of allegations that EEO offices have been subject to budget cuts and a shift in administrative priorities and policies. We selected 17 executive departments and independent agen- cies for review, based on their total number of personnel as of January 1, 1984. Although we chose a mix of organizations by the number of employees, the grouping nonetheless represents a nonrandom sample from which generalizations to all federal executive departments and independent agencies cannot be made. For these 17 departments and agencies, we examined information on civil rights activities submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for fiscal years 1981 and 1984. This data showed both increases and decreases in outlays, workyears, and complaints processing. Because of inconsistencies in the ways agencies gathered and reported this data, it is difficult to attribute any differences between fiscal year 1981 and 1984 to a policy shift or to know with any degree of certainty how accurate or meaningful the data is. Data Submitted to OMB Federal agencies and departments annually report informa- tion on civil rights activities to OMB's Office of Civil Rights, (966215)
