                        STATEMENT OF             2 7
 ELMER B. STAATS, COMPTROLLER GENERAL OF THE UNITED STATES
             BEFORE THE LEGISLATIVE SUBCOMMITTEE
                  APPROPRIATIONS COMMITTEE
         67       HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES

            UDGET ESTIMATES FOR FISCAL YEAR 1


MR. CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS OF THE SUBCOMMITTEE:

     We appreciate the opportunity to present to the

Committee a review of our work programs and our financial

requirements for FY 1976. Details of these plans have been

provided to you in a separate volume entitled Justification

of Estimates. I would like in this opening statement to

summarize:

     A. Our Overall Financial and Staff Requirements.

     B. The Impact of Recent Legislation and Other Congres-
           sional Actions on GAO Organization and Work Pro-
           grams.

     C. General Performance Highlights Since our Last Budget
           Hearing.


        A. OVERALL FINANCIAL AND STAFF REQUIREMENTS

     In FY 1976 we estimate that we will require $139.5 mil-

lion--an increase of $14.7 over our FY 1975 budget. As ex-

plained below, about two-thirds of this amount is to finance

our current level of operations. The remaining one-third is

requested to support a growth of 260 average staff-years in

our ongoing organization in order to respond to the require-

ments of Congress.
