BUDGET SCOREKEEPING REPORT

<bullet> Mr. DOMENICI. Mr. President, I hereby submit to the Senate the
budget scorekeeping report prepared by the Congressional Budget Office
under section 308(b) and in aid of section 311 of the Congressional
Budget Act of 1974, as amended. This report meets the requirements for
Senate scorekeeping of section 5 of Senate Concurrent Resolution 32,
the first concurrent resolution on the budget for 1986.
This report shows the effects of congressional action on the budget
through October 24, 1995. The estimates of budget authority, outlays,
and revenues, which are consistent with the technical and economic
assumptions of the 1996 concurrent resolution on the budget (H. Con.
Res. 67), show that current level spending is below the budget
resolution by $3.6 billion on budget authority and above the budget
resolution by $3.4 billion in outlays. Current level is $2.2 billion
above the revenue

[[Page S15700]]

floor in 1996 and $125.4 billion above the revenue floor over the 5
years 1996-2000. The current estimate of the deficit for purposes of
calculating the maximum deficit amount is $249 billion, $1.2 billion
above the maximum deficit amount for 1996 of $247.8 billion.
Since my last report, dated October 12, 1995, Congress cleared, and
the President signed the Agriculture Appropriations Act--Public Law
104-37. In addition, pursuant to section 205(b)(2) of House Concurrent
Resolution 67, the revenue aggregates for the concurrent resolution
have been revised. These actions changed the current level of budget
authority, outlays, and revenues.
The report follows:

U.S. Congress,

Congressional Budget Office,

Washington, DC, October 25, 1995.
Hon. Pete Domenici,
Chairman, Committee on the Budget, U.S. Senate, Washington,
DC.
Dear Mr. Chairman: The attached report for fiscal year 1996
shows the effects of Congressional action on the 1996 budget
and is current through October 24, 1995. The estimates of
budget authority, outlays and revenues are consistent with
the technical and economic assumptions of the 1996 Concurrent
Resolution on the Budget (H. Con. Res. 67). This report is
submitted under Section 308(b) and in aid of Section 311 of
the Congressional Budget Act, as amended.
Since my last report, October 11, 1995, Congress cleared,
and the President signed the Agriculture Appropriations (P.L.
104-37). In addition, pursuant to Section 205(b)(2) of H.
Con. Res. 67, the revenue estimates for the concurrent
resolution have been revised. These actions changed the
current level of budget authority, outlays and revenues.
Sincerely,
June E. O'Neill,
Director.
