          Mr. Stevens, from the Committee on Appropriations, 
                        submitted the following

                              R E P O R T

    The Committee on Appropriations submits the following 
report pursuant to section 302(b)(1) of the Congressional 
Budget Act of 1974, as amended.
    The Budget Act requires that as soon as practicable after a 
concurrent resolution on the budget is agreed to, the Committee 
on Appropriations shall submit to the Senate a report 
subdividing among its subcommittees the new budget authority 
and total outlays allocated to the Committee in the joint 
explanatory statement accompanying the conference report on 
such a resolution. The conference report on the concurrent 
resolution for fiscal year 2000 (H. Con. Res. 68) was agreed to 
by the Congress on April 15, 1999.

                  AMOUNTS CONTAINED IN THE RESOLUTION

    Pursuant to sections 302(a) of the Congressional Budget Act 
of 1974, as amended, the joint explanatory statement 
accompanying the conference report on the concurrent resolution 
on the budget for fiscal year 2000 (H. Rept. 106-91) contains 
several allocations and suballocations to the Senate Committee 
on Appropriations.
    In summary, the Committee received an allocation comprised 
as follows:

                        [In millions of dollars]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                              Budget
                Category                     authority        Outlays
------------------------------------------------------------------------
General purpose discretionary...........         531,771         536,700
Violent crime reduction.................           4,500           5,554
Highway.................................  ..............          24,574
Mass transit............................  ..............           4,117

      Total.............................         857,773         875,243
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Committee notes that, under the terms of several 
provisions of the Budget Act, the chairman of the Committee on 
the Budget may increase the 302(a) allocation of the Committee 
on Appropriations if certain conditions relating to funding of 
specific programs are met. These provisions address such items 
as: funding for arrearages for international organizations, 
international peacekeeping, and multilateral development banks 
(sec. 314(b)(4)); funding of continuing disability reviews (sec 
314(b)(2)); funding for the earned income tax credit compliance 
initiative (sec. 314(b)(5)); and funding for adoption incentive 
payments (sec. 314(b)(6)).
    On May 19, 1999, the Committee on the Budget filed a 
revised allocation (Congressional Record pages S5583-5584) 
reflecting an increase of $1,881,000,000 in budget authority 
and $7,256,000,000 in outlays for general purpose discretionary 
emergency requirements. These adjustments cover the conference 
report on H.R. 1141, the fiscal year 1999 Emergency 
Supplemental Appropriations bill (Public Law 106-31).

            ALLOCATIONS TO SUBCOMMITTEES OF DIRECT SPENDING

    Section 302(b)(1)(B) of the Budget Act, requires that the 
Committee subdivide its allocation of budget authority and 
outlays to subcommittees between controllable and other 
amounts. For the purposes of this section, amounts listed as 
mandatory are not controllable. The following table sets forth 
by subcommittee the allocations of budget authority and 
outlays:
