justice in our Nation and to provide for high-quality civil legal 
assistance to low income persons. LSC submits an annual budget request 
directly to Congress and receives an annual direct appropriation to 
carry out its mission. For the current fiscal year, FY 2011, after a 
rescission, LSC received an appropriation of $404,190,000 of which 
$378,641,200 is for basic field programs and required independent 
audits; $4,191,600 is for the Office of Inspector General; $16,966,000 
is for management and grants oversight; $3,393,200 is for technology 
initiative grants; and $998,000 is for loan repayment assistance. 
Public Law 112-10, 125 Stat. 38 (April 15, 2011).
    As part of its annual budget and appropriation process, LSC 
notifies the Office of Management and Budget (``OMB'') in September as 
to what the LSC budget request to Congress will be for the next fiscal 
year. Accordingly, LSC is currently in the process of formulating its 
FY 2013 budget request. The Finance Committee of the LSC Board of 
Directors will meet on June 16, 2011, to hear testimony and commence 
deliberations on what to recommend to the full Board for adoption as 
the Corporation's FY 2013 budget request.
    LSC invites public comment on what its FY 2013 budget request 
should be. Interested parties may submit comments to LSC by 12 noon 
Eastern Time on Wednesday, June 15, 2011. More information about LSC
