Impoundment Control
Comments on the President's Fifth Special Message for FY 1993 Gao ID: OGC-93-7 June 4, 1993On April 20, 1993, the President submitted to Congress his fifth special impoundment message for fiscal year 1993. This message reports one proposed rescission of budget authority, affecting the Voice of America's Israeli relay station, and revises the amount of one deferral of budget authority already reported, affecting administrative expenses at the Social Security Administration. GAO reviewed these proposals and found them to be in accordance with the Impoundment Control Act.
GAO found that the proposed rescission and revised deferral were in accordance with the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974. GAO identified no other information, except as noted, which would be useful to Congress in its consideration of the President's proposals.
