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

                              R E P O R T

    The Committee on Appropriations submits the following

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 2008 (S. Con. Res. 21) was agreed to 
by the Congress on May 17, 2007.

                  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 2008 (H. Rept. 110-153) contains 
allocations to the Senate Committee on Appropriations for 
fiscal year 2008.
    On June 14, 2007, the Committee on the Budget filed a 
revised 302(a) allocation for the Committee (Congressional 
Record pgs. S7721-7723) reflecting an increase in discretionary 
spending of $1,000,000 in budget authority and $1,000,000 in 
outlays, pursuant to section 207(f) of the budget resolution, 
and amending the allocation for mandatory spending contained in 
the resolution.
    In summary, the Committee received an allocation comprised 
as follows:

    The Committee notes that, under the terms of several 
provisions of the budget resolution, the chairman of the 
Committee on the Budget may increase the 302(a) allocation of

Supplemental Security Income [SSI] redeterminations (sec. 
207(c)(2)(A)); Internal Revenue Service tax enforcement (sec. 
207(c)(2)(B)); control of health care fraud and abuse (sec. 
207(c)(2)(C)); reviews of improper unemployment insurance 
payments (sec. 207(c)(2)(D)); and costs of overseas deployments 
and other contingencies (sec. 207(c)(2)(E)).
