Summary:

This testimony addresses the Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) fiscal year 1997 budget request. By continuing to improve its internal management and coming to closure on how and when it will use the market to eliminate excess subsidy costs and improve the poor physical condition of its public housing, HUD will be in a better position to use additional appropriations and implement new policy. Although HUD recognizes many of its management shortcomings and has budgeted funds to correct them, GAO views this as a long-term effort that will continue into the foreseeable future. In particular, GAO discusses (1) HUD's multifamily reengineering estimates, (2) proposed bonus pools for high-performing participants in four of HUD's six proposed block grants to consolidate existing programs, and (3) HUD's progress in addressing management deficiencies cited in GAO's 1995 high-risk report. (See GAO/HR-95-11.)
