I would merely like to request that the gentleman join me in requesting that the Department submit to Congress a quarterly report listing any trips that it approves for negotiations or assisting in negotiations of international S&T agreements as well as the amount of Federal funds available to implement the research envisioned by the terms of the agreement; and secondly, any consultations under existing agreements, as well as the amount of Federal funds to support the research projects envisioned in the agreements. I believe this will be the first step in quantifying the size and scope of this issue and may force the Department to take a hard look at its operations in this area.
