Congressional Research service report

CRS issued a report on the Budget Enforcement Act of 1997 (Pub. L. 105-33), including this description of this section:

Section 10110. Amendments to Section 308. Section 308 of the CBA deals with budgetary reports, particularly CBO cost estimates, scorekeeping tabulations, and budget projections. Section 10110 of the act eliminates the requirements that information on credit authority be included in these reports, which effectively were made obsolete by the enactment of the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, and makes other technical changes.
