Lapse in Appropriations

Please note that a lapse in appropriations has caused GAO to shut down its operations. Therefore, GAO will not be able to publish reports or otherwise update this website until GAO resumes operations. In addition, the vast majority of GAO personnel are not permitted to work. Consequently, calls or emails to agency personnel may not be returned until GAO resumes operations. For details on how the bid protest process will be handled during the shutdown, please see the legal decisions page. For information related to the GAO Personnel Appeals Board (PAB), please see the PAB webpage.

Highlights

GAO and the Congressional Budget Office evaluated the proposals made by the President's Private Sector Survey on Cost Control, known as the Grace Commission. The report focused on the survey's recommendations that would have a major impact on budgetary savings and did not cover all of the proposals. The analysis included estimates of the possible budget impact for fiscal years 1985-1989, the likely impact on the Federal programs involved, and the actions necessary to implement the proposals.
