Hon. J. Dennis Hastert,

    Dear Mr. Speaker: In order to keep the Congress apprised of 
the amount and frequency of rescissions proposed and enacted we 
have updated our previous compilation of historical information 
and statistics regarding rescissions proposed by the executive 
branch and rescissions enacted by the Congress through October 
1, 1999. These statistics were prepared in accordance with the 
same scope and methodology used in compiling our previous 
tables. See B-246096.8, April 30, 1992.
    I trust you will find this information useful.
            Sincerely yours,
                                           David M. Walker,
                          Comptroller General of the United States.
    Enclosures.
