Mr  Chairman and Members of the Committee

     We are pleased to be here today to discuss H.R. 6005, the

proposed bill to discontinue or amend certain requirements for

agency reports to the Congress.  At the present time there are

approximately 2900 congressionally mandated recurring reporting

requirements.  This bill would eliminate or modify about 200

mandated reporting requirements, thereby decreasing the workload

and cost of government operations.  The number of requirements

cited for elimination in H.R. 6005 represents about 7 percent

of the existing universe of requirements.  OMB estimates the

pas age of this bill will save the Government over $10 million

each) year.

area of concern to the General Accounting Office.  Accordingly,
