Deferral of Budget Authority Pursuant to Impoundment Control Act of 1974

Gao ID: OGC-79-8 March 14, 1979

A deferral of the Navy's budget authority that had not been reported to the Congress was reported by the Comptroller General. This report was submitted in accordance with the Impoundment Control Act of 1974.

A decision is expected sometime in May or June 1979 regarding the uses to which the deferred funds will be put. Until that time, the funds are to be withheld from all the Navy's research, development, testing, and evaluation programs.
