Mr. President. H.R. 4169 as reported by the Appropriations Committee provides new budget authority of $8.6 billion for fiscal year With possible later requirements for October 1981 pay raise and the administrations requested increase for the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS). the reported bill is exactly at the CommerceStateJustice Subcommittees budget authority allocation under the first budget resolution and above the subcommittees outlay allocation by $0.3 billion. I would like to commend the subcommittee for restraining the credit side of the budget. The credit limitations in the reported bill are $1.8 billion. 21 percent below the credit budget assumptions of the first budget resolution.
