Comments on Proposed Rescissions of Department of Education Budget Authority Gao ID: OGC-95-18 April 7, 1995

On February 22, 1995, the President submitted to Congress his fourth special impoundment message for fiscal year 1995. The message reports one revised deferral and two revised rescission proposals, all affecting the Department of Education. GAO reviewed the rescissions and found them to be in accordance with the Impoundment Control Act.

GAO found that the proposed deferral and rescissions were in accordance with the Impoundment Control Act. GAO also provided specific information on three proposed rescissions in the third special message that should be useful to Congress in its examination of the message.
