Consistent
with the Government Performance and Results Act, the 2004 budget proposes
to streamline the decision unit structure of DOJ components to align more
closely with the mission and strategic objectives contained in the DOJ Strategic
Plan (FY 2001-2006). In addition, the budget has been realigned to reflect
each component's outputs and full costs by major program activity, including
the costs of management and administration, so that a more accurate picture
of total activity costs is reflected in the budget. In this way, budget
and performance are more closely linked, and provide a better basis on which
to make budget decisions. Over time, agencies will be expected to identify
effective outcome measures, monitor their progress, and accurately present
the associated costs. |
|
As part
of its effort to realign resources to the DOJ Strategic Plan, the 2004 budget
proposes to consolidate funding for OJP-administered programs funded under
the Justice Assistance appropriation. In 2004, OJP has realigned its management
and administration funding to reflect the full cost, both administrative
and programmatic, of each OJP program. In order to achieve this, OJP's management
and administration resources were redistributed among all OJP programs so
that the budgeted administrative costs for each program were more closely
aligned with actual administrative costs. The table below depicts the total
funds for each program and the net program funds once administrative costs
are subtracted. The net program fund amounts correspond to the amounts included
for each program under the Justice Assistance appropriation language in
the 2004 President's Budget Appendix. |

At its inception, RISS supported state and local law enforcement efforts

regional information sharing concept has expanded, and now more law enforcement
agencies routinely reach out to share intelligence across jurisdictional
boundaries. Section 701 of the USA Patriot Act authorizes RISS to operate
secure information sharing systems to enhance the investigative and prosecutorial
abilities of participating law enforcement agencies in addressing terrorism.
The proposed increase will be used to expand RISS' accessibility to state
and local public safety agencies for the purpose of sharing terrorism
alerts and related information. |

The 2004 current services level includes approximately $75 million in
existing grant program resources to help laboratories address DNA backlogs
and make lab improvements ($35 million for the Crime Lab Improvement Program
and $40 million for the DNA Backlog). The 2004 budget proposes to include
this base funding in a consolidated DNA program. In addition, the budget
proposes to add another $102.937 million, with $5 million coming from
the existing DNA R&D Program in NIJ and the remaining $97.937 million
in new money, to fund $177 million in DNA enhancements. Effective backlog
reduction requires both the defrayal of sample analysis costs to meet
immediate needs, and improvements, especially automation upgrades, in
state and local forensic laboratories to increase their capacity for DNA
analysis. Of the $177 million total, at least $35 million is proposed
for state and local DNA lab upgrades. This program will include activities
previously funded under the Crime Lab Improvement Program, the DNA Program,
and the NIJ DNA R&D Program. |

expand the number of drug courts; increase retention in, and successful
completion of, drug court programs by expanding the scope and improving
the quality of drug court services; and generate drug court program outcome
data. The total level of resources requested will fund 78 new drug courts.
There are currently 957 drug courts in operation (includes federally and
non- federally funded). The Drug Courts Program provides alternatives

The budget request includes additional funds for state training and technical
assistance to develop an effective, coordinated AMBER Alert program nationwide.
This increase will be used to (1) develop and provide training over a
two-year period to law enforcement and others on how to operate effective
AMBER alert systems, and (2) to provide radio stations with the software
needed to upgrade the emergency alert systems so that stations can broadcast
an AMBER missing child alert. |
