Description: The Secretary of Labor has legal responsibility under
the Social Security Act (SSA) Title III, Section 303(a)(1) for
providing state agencies the necessary cost of proper and efficient
administration of state unemployment insurance (UI) laws. Accordingly,
the Secretary must establish a means of measuring state agencies'
``proper and efficient administration'' of UI programs. The RJM would
replace the current methodologies for budget formulation and grant
allocation to the states for UI programs.
