President's Eleventh Special Message for 1980

Gao ID: OGC-80-20 August 18, 1980

The President's eleventh special message for fiscal year 1980 proposed a revision to two previously transmitted deferrals increasing the amounts deferred by $13.7 million.

The Department of Defense deferral as reported involved approximately $57.4 million. However, a GAO review of this deferral showed that there have been changes in the amounts deferred from various accounts. Accordingly, the amount shown as deferred in this deferral should have been $37,384,000 instead of $57,391,015. Deferral was also made for the International Communication Agency for salaries and expenses in the Special Foreign Currency Program. Except as noted, it was believed that the proposed deferrals were in accordance with existing authority.
