All but $1,668,900 of the original $10 million authorization was exhausted by $831,100 transferred from the Department of State and the $1 million appropriated by Public Law 87-332 for fiscal year 1962 and the $6.5 million appropriated by Public Law 87-843 for fiscal year 1963. (An additional $261,000 of the original $10 million authorization was used by the appropriations for fiscal years 1971 and 1972, and $10,000 was used for fiscal years 1976 and 1977.)

(Because these appropriations exceeded the $17.5 million authorized for 1971 and 1972, $261,000 of the original $10 million authorization was used to cover the excess.) Public Law 92-352 added the $22 million authorization for fiscal years 1973 and 1974, for which $10 million was appropriated by Public Law 92-544 for fiscal year 1973 and $7,735,000 was appropriated by Public Law 93-162 and $330,000 by Public Law 93-305 for 1974.

Public Law 94-121 appropriated $10.5 million for fiscal year 1976 and $2.7 million for this transition quarter. Public Law 94-303 appropriated an additional $950,000 (including not to exceed $5,000 for official reception and representation expenses) in title I for fiscal year 1976 and $250,000 for the transition quarter, and $230,000 in title II for fiscal year 1976 and $80,000 in title III for the transition quarter for increased pay costs. (The availability of fiscal year 1976 appropriations was extended through the transition quarter by sec. 203 of Public Law 93-554.) For fiscal year 1977, $12 million (including not to exceed $10,000 for official reception and representation expenses) was appropriated by Public Law 94-362 and $200,000 was appropriated by Public Law 95-26 and $220,000 by Public Law 95-86 for increased pay costs. (Because the appropriations for other than increased pay costs exceeded the $23,440,000 authorization for fiscal years 1976 and 1977, $10,000 of the original $10 million authorization was used to cover the excess.)

Of the amount authorized for fiscal years 1976 and 1977, sec. 142 of Public Law 94-141 directed the use of not to exceed $1,000,000 for a study of the impact upon military expenditures of arms control measures mutually agreed to by the United States and the Soviet Union and sec. 143 specified $440,000 for the conduct of additional research, in consultation with the International Atomic Energy Agency, with respect to the development of nuclear safeguard techniques.

IX of title I of Public Law 96-38, and $400,000 was appropriated by title II of Public Law 96-38 for increased pay costs.
