LUDGET ESTIMATES FOR FISCAL YEAR 1982]
MR. CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS OF THE SUBCOMMITTEE:
We are pleased to be here to discuss the GAO's fiscal year
1982 budget request. The GAO wJustification of Estimates for
FY 1982,w which has already been given to you, details our budget
request. GAO needs the requested funds to sustain our effective
assistance to the Congress when it considers legislation and
oversees the Federal Government's operations.
In considering our request, it's important to keep in mind
the following:
--While GAO workload for FY 1981 has increased and will
increase further in 1982, especially as additional
legislation is, enacted and appropriation bills are
considered, we are requesting no increases over staff
levels requested to meet workload requirements two
years ago.
-Despite every effort to cut costs, funding constraints
of the past several years have eroded the coverage GAO
