                                _______

          Mr. Cochran, 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) 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 2006 (H. Con. Res. 95) was agreed to 
by the Congress on April 28, 2005.

                  AMOUNTS CONTAINED IN THE RESOLUTION

    Pursuant to section 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 2006 (H. Rept. 109-62) contains 
allocations to the Senate Committee on Appropriations.
    The Committee notes that, unlike all previous years, the 
Committee did not receive as part of its allocation from the 
Committee on the Budget an amount for mandatory spending 
provided in the annual appropriations process. Last year the 
Committee allocations included $460,008,000,000 in budget 
authority and $445,525,000,000 for mandatory programs in fiscal 
year 2005. The comparable amount for fiscal year 2006 would 
have been $531,782,000,000 in budget authority and 
$512,469,000,000 in outlays. This is an increase of 
$71,774,000,000 in budget authority and $66,944,000,000 in 
outlays over the previous year.
    The Committee received an allocation of discretionary 
spending only of $842,265,000,000 in budget authority and 
$916,081,000,000 in outlays. The Committee notes that, under 
the terms of several provisions of the budget resolution, the 
chairman of the Committee on the Budget shall increase the 
302(a) allocation of the Committee on Appropriations by an 
additional $755,000,000 if certain conditions relating to 
funding of specific programs are met. These provisions address 
such items as: funding of continuing disability reviews (sec. 
404(b)(1)); funding for tax law enforcement by the Internal 
Revenue Service (sec. 404(b)(2)); funding for reducing health 
care fraud and abuse (sec. 404(b)(3)); and funding for reducing 
improper unemployment insurance payments (sec. 404(b)(4)). The 
allocations to subcommittees is set forth below:
