                  GAO REVIEWS OF TAXPAYER ASSISTANCE

Mr. Chairman and Members of the Subcommittee:

     We are glad to appear at your request to give you an overview of

GAO's reviews relating to taxpayer assistance.
     As you know, there has been a long standing refusal by the IRS to

permit the GAO to review administration of the Internal Revenue laws.
Accordingly, such review work as we have performed has been at the request
of the Joint Committee on Internal Revenue Taxation. That Committee,

which has authority by law to investigate administration of the Internal
Revenue code, designated GAO as its agent in 1971. Since that time we
have been asked to conduct a number of reviews.

     Among the requests by the Joint Committee was one to review the

taxpayer assistance program of IRS. That work is now in its final

stages--with two of three contemplated reports having been issued and the

third scheduled for early in 1976.
