Congress appears to have pursued a variety of objectives in incorporating within delegatory statutes a power to influence or control administration through concurrent or simple resolution. (a) In some instances it has reserved power to terminate a statute or program by concurrent resolution. (b) It has asserted power to enable or require executive action by concurrent resolution. (c) Finally, it has made administrative exercise of delegated power subject to congressional approval or disapproval by concurrent or simple resolution. The forty odd delegatory statutes noted in the course of this study, which reserve to Congress the right to influence or limit administrative action by simple or concurrent resolution, will be discussed in this order. _Terminating Programs_: Use of the concurrent resolution for the express purpose of terminating legislative delegations of power to the executive branch may take two forms: (a) congressional reservation of a power to repeal the authorizing statute, or (b) congressional reservation of the right, by concurrent resolution, to declare an end to the particular conditions under which the President is empowered to take action. Exercise of congressional power to repeal by concurrent resolution generally has been expressed as follows: “The provisions of this Act, ... shall terminate on June 30, 1943, or upon the date of a proclamation by the President, or upon the date specified in a concurrent resolution ...”[616] A similar provision is contained in at least twenty-three emergency statutes enacted since 1941 and listed below.[617] The Mutual Defense Assistance Act of 1949 secured to the Congress a form of item veto through reserving to it the power by concurrent resolution to terminate assistance to any nation under the Act.[618]
