6. Morris and Hughes have moved onto other pursuits as of this writing. Havens' original assignment was to the Office of Program and Budget Analysis, and Canfield's original assignment was to the Office of Special Programs. Both of these offices were redesignated as line divisions in 1976 under the names cited in the text. 7. This is based on the author's analysis of 100 Timeframe For Successive Performance Steps reports, 1973-1975. 8. Martin J.

Since the initial drafting of this article two related trends are of note. . . One is the criticism that Alice Rivlin, CBO head, has come under from segments of Congress based on her office's alleged policy advocacy. Second, Congress' interest in zero-base budgeting and sunset legislation has opened new potential for GAO activity in its expanded role. See the author's Zero-Base Budgeting and the United States General Accounting Office, International Journal of Government Auditing (October, 1977).
