Title I of the FSGG appropriations bill provides funding for the Department of the Treasury and its bureaus, including the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). The President requested $13.24 billion for the Treasury Department for FY2013, an increase of $1.03 billion above FY2012 enacted amounts. The President's request includes a proposal to create a new bureau, the Fiscal Service, which would result from the merger of the Financial Management Service and the Bureau of the Public Debt. According to the budget request, the new bureau would reduce duplicative functions. Table 2 lists the enacted amounts for FY2010, FY2011, and FY2012, as well as amounts requested by the President for FY2013.

Notes: All figures are rounded, and columns also may not equal the total due to rounding.
a. The CFTC is funded in the House through the Agriculture appropriations bill and in the Senate through the Financial Services and General Government bill.
b. The FCC's total appropriations, shown in parentheses, are funded entirely by offsetting collections.
c. Budget authority transferred to FDIC is not included in total FSGG appropriations; it is counted as part of the budget authority in the appropriation account from which it came.
d. GSA's real property activities are funded through the Federal Buildings Fund (FBF), a multi-billion dollar revolving fund into which rental payments from federal agencies that lease GSA space are deposited. Revenue in the FBF is then made available by Congress each year to pay for GSA's real property activities. A negative total for the FBF occurs when the amount of funds made available for expenditure in a fiscal year is less than the amount of new revenue expected to be deposited.
