Summary
Appropriates such amounts as may be necessary in fiscal year 1982 to continue Federal activities for which specified appropriations Acts will not have been enacted prior to September 30, 1981. Funds such activities in the same manner and amounts as provided for in such Acts. States that if the Senate and the House of Representatives have both passed appropriations for an activity but in differing amounts, the lesser amount or more restrictive authority shall apply in the continuing appropriations. Declares that if an appropriations Act has passed only one House or if an activity has been funded in only one version of an Act passed by both Houses, the continuing appropriations shall not exceed the rate provided by the one House or the current rate, whichever is lower. Provides continuing appropriations for activities conducted in fiscal year 1981, at the current rate or the rate of the budget estimate, whichever is lower and provided in: (1) Department of Defense Appropriation Act, 1981; and (2) Public Law 96-536 regarding foreign assistance and related programs. Continues appropriations for the Legislative Branch at the rate provided in H.R. 4120 as reported July 9, 1981. Appropriates such sums as may be necessary to continue the activities of the Department of State for contributions to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian Refugees which were conducted in fiscal year 1981 at a rate for operations not in excess of the current rate. Declares that the appropriations contained in this resolution shall remain available for expenditure until: (1) enactment of the applicable appropriations Act without any provision for such activity; or (3) November 1, 1981, whichever occurs first. Authorizes the use of appropriations contained in this resolution without regard to the time limitations for submission and approval of apportionments required by law. Prohibits the use of appropriations to initiate or resume any activity for which funds were not available in fiscal year 1981. Authorizes the apportionment of appropriated funds on a deficiency basis indicating the need for a supplemental appropriation to the extent necessary to permit payment of pay increases granted pursuant to law. Authorizes the Secretary of Agriculture to exercise the emergency authorities provided for in H.R. 4119 as passed the House of Representatives on July 27, 1981, in connection with the program of the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service.
