(c) In the event that the regular appropriations Act making
appropriations for administrative expenses for the Department of Labor
with respect to any fiscal year does not specify an amount for the
purposes specified in subsection (b) of this section for that fiscal
year, then of the amounts appropriated in such Act there shall be

section such amount as was set forth in the budget estimate submitted
pursuant to subsection (a) of this section.
