Dembling FROM : General Counsel - Paul G. Dembling SUBJECT: Legality of crediting reimbursements to appropriations current at the time of collection. B-179708-O.M. This responds to David Lowe's memorandum of September 17, 1975, wherein he refers to the request of Chairman Mahon of the House Com- mittee on Appropriations on the legality of DOD's practices regarding the crediting of collected reimbursements to the appropriation accounts current at the time of collection. Our previous memorandum on this matter, B-179708-1O,.,;July 2, 1975, was dtt al a i y to a review ot' reimursements under 22 U.S.C. §§ 2YO5722Ut ,iand 0,__ and 31 U.S.C. § 686.00Mr. Lowe requested that we also discuss other statutory provisions which govern reimbursements for particular trans- actions, especially those involving foreign military sales and foreign military assistance, which account for billions of dollars in reimburse- ments to the military services annually. In addition, iVk Lowe requested us to suggest any amending statutory language needed to require that reimbursements from foreign military sales and assistance transactions be credited to the appropriation of the year in which the reimbursements are earned. Finally, Mr. Lowe requests that we propose language to amend 10 U.S.C. § 2210(a)%o require crediting of reimbursements in all trans- actions thereunder to the appropriation which earned such reimbursement, and provide proposed amending language which would apply the same require- ment to all DOD reimbursable transactions. IM understand that our opinion is to be annexed as an addendum to an audit report being prepared in your division for Chairman Mahon, The following Attachment, which incorporates much of our earlier reply, dated July 21, 1975, represents our expanded views on this matter.
