More Flexibility Needed by the General Services Administration for Delegating Leasing Authority to Federal Agencies

Abstract

When leasing authority was transferred to the General Services Administration in 1950, it was anticipated that it would make extensive use of lease delegations in smaller communities where it would be feasible for agencies to lease space directly.

Refuses to make delegations to agencies even though it cannot lease space tor all of them in a timely manner.
