Background and Need for Legislation H.R. 1107 revises and restates certain laws relating to public contracts and re-enacts those laws as title 41, United States Code. The bill was prepared by the Office of the Law Revision Counsel of the House of Representatives, as part of its responsibility under 2 U.S.C. 285b to submit to the Committee on the Judiciary proposed bills to enact titles of the United States Code into positive law. This bill has undergone extensive review over several Congresses. Predecessor bills to H.R. 1107 were introduced in the 108th, 109th, and 110th Congresses -- H.R. 4320 in the 108th, H.R. 5414 in the 109th, and H.R. 4779 in the 110th. H.R. 4779 was ordered favorably reported by the Committee on July 30, 2008. When H.R. 4779 was introduced, on December 18, 2007, Chairman Conyers placed an introductory statement in the Congressional Record inviting interested parties to review the bill and submit comments to the Law Revision Counsel. A number of comments were received, and the bill as ordered reported incorporated a number of revisions made in light of those comments. H.R. 1107 was introduced February 23, 2009, by Chairman Conyers and Ranking Member Smith. H.R. 1107 incorporates changes based on laws enacted during the 110th Congress. In addition, H.R. 1107 incorporates a number of revisions made in light of supplemental comments that were submitted to the Committee after the predecessor bill, H.R. 4779, had already been ordered reported. Conformity With Original Intent In the drafting, the intent is to comply with the standard set forth in 2 U.S.C. 285b(1), that the restatement of existing law shall conform to ``the understood policy, intent, and purpose of the Congress in the original enactments, with such amendments and corrections as will remove ambiguities, contradictions, and other imperfections . . .''. In restating existing law, this bill consolidates various provisions of law which have been enacted separately over a period of many years, reorganizing them, conforming style and terminology, modernizing obsolete language, and correcting drafting errors. These changes are not intended to have substantive effect, or to impair in any way the precedential value of earlier judicial decisions or other interpretations. This bill is intended to restate existing law without substantive change. That enactment of a bill such as this does not make substantive change in the law, absent an unequivocal expression of Congressional intent to make such a change, has been repeatedly held in numerous cases, including the following: Finley v. United States, 490 U.S. 545, 553-555 (1989). Cass v. United States, 417 U.S. 72, 81-82 (1974). Tidewater Oil Co. v. U.S., 409 U.S. 151, 161-162 (1972). United States v. Cook, 384 U.S. 257, 260 (1966). Fourco Glass Co. v. Transmirra Products Corp., 353 U.S. 222, 226-227 (1957). Washington-Dulles Transportation, Ltd. v. Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority, 263 F.3d 371, 378-379 (4th Cir. 2001). Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway Co. v. United States, 617 F.2d 485, 490-491 (7th Cir. 1980). Trailer Marine Transport Corp. v. Federal Maritime Commission, 602 F.2d 379, 383 (D.C. Cir. 1979). See also Norman J. Singer, Sutherland Statutory Construction, Sec. Sec. 28.10, 28.11 (6th ed. 2002). Hearings No hearings were held on H.R. 1107. Committee Consideration On March 18, 2009, the Committee met in open session and ordered the bill, H.R. 1107, favorably reported, by a voice vote, a quorum being present. Committee Votes In compliance with clause 3(b) of rule XIII of the Rules of the House of Representatives, the Committee advises that there were no recorded votes during the Committee's consideration of H.R. 1107. Committee Oversight Findings In compliance with clause 3(c)(1) of rule XIII of the Rules of the House of Representatives, the Committee reports that the findings and recommendations of the Committee, based on oversight activities under clause 2(b)(1) of rule X of the Rules of the House of Representatives, are incorporated in the descriptive portions of this report. New Budget Authority and Tax Expenditures Clause 3(c)(2) of rule XIII of the Rules of the House of Representatives is inapplicable because H.R. 1107 does not provide new budget authority or an increase in tax expenditures. Comittee Cost Estimate In compliance with clause 3(d)(2) of rule XIII of the Rules of the House of Representatives, the Committee estimates that no appreciable costs will be incurred in carrying out the bill, H.R. 1107, as it is not intended to make any substantive changes to the law. In compliance with clause 3(c)(3) of rule XIII of the Rules of the House of Representatives, the Committee advises that no estimate of the costs of implementing H.R. 1107 is available from the Congressional Budget Office. Performance Goals and Objectives Clause 3(c)(4) of rule XIII of the Rules of the House of Representatives is inapplicable because H.R. 1107 does not authorize funding. Constitutional Authority Statement Pursuant to clause 3(d)(1) of rule XIII of the Rules of the House of Representatives, the Committee finds the authority for this legislation in article I, section 8 of the Constitution. Disposition Table The table below shows a disposition for each section of the United States Code affected by the bill. In addition, with respect to provisions of law set out as notes in the United States Code, the table shows a disposition for each provision restated as part of title 41. Where the disposition column shows a title 41 citation, it means the provision of law classified to the former United States Code section is being restated and reenacted as part of title 41 by section 3 of the bill. The provision is also included in the Schedule of Laws Repealed in section 7 of the bill. Where the disposition column shows ``Obsolete'', ``Superseded'', or ``Unnecessary'', it means the provision of law classified to the former United States Code section is being omitted from the proposed revised title but is included in the Schedule of Laws Repealed in section 7 of the bill. Where the disposition column shows ``Limited interest'' or ``Temporary'' or recommends transfer to another title, it means the provision of law classified to the former United States Code section is being omitted from the proposed revised title and is not included in the Schedule of Laws Repealed in section 7 of the bill.

In subsection (b)(1)(B), the words ``(as that term is defined in section 3502(11) of title 44)'' are omitted because chapter 35 of title 44 was amended generally by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Public Law 104-13, 109 Stat. 163) and 44:3502 no longer defines ``information collection request''. The term ``information collection request'' is retained in this section of the revised title, however, because 44:ch. 35 still contains provisions about requests for collection of information. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Source (Statutes Revised Section Source (U.S. Code) at Large) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1304(a)............... 41:425(a).

Section 9(a) of the Act of August 2, 1946 (ch. 744, 60 Stat. 809) restated 41:5 generally and section 9(c) of the Act, an independent provision, was editorially added as the last paragraph of 41:5. The definitions which apply to ``as used in this Act'' are probably intended to apply also to 41:5 as restated by the Act. The definitions for ``department'' and ``continental United States'' are omitted because those terms do not appear in 41:5. In paragraph (1), the words ``section 9104 of title 31'' are substituted for ``section 104 of the Government Corporation Control Act, approved December 6, 1945'' because of section 4(b) of Public Law. 97-258 (31 U.S.C. note prec. 101). In paragraphs (1) and (2), the word ``includes'' is substituted for ``shall be construed to include'' and for ``shall be construed as including'', respectively, to eliminate unnecessary words. In subsection (c), the words ``as authorized by section 29 of the Surplus Property Act of 1944 (50 U.S.C. App. 1638)'' in section 3709 of the Revised Statutes are omitted because section 29 was repealed by section 602(a)(1) of the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949 (ch. 288, 63 Stat. 399). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Source (Statutes Revised Section Source (U.S. Code) at Large) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 6102(a)............... 41:6a(a).

Section 205(a) was repealed by section 53 of the Act of August 10, 1956 (ch. 1041, 70A Stat. 676). Section 1 of the Act of August 10, 1956 (70A Stat. 1) enacted Title 10, ``Armed Forces'', and under sections 3011 to 3013 of title 10, the Department of the Army remains under the administrative supervision of the Secretary of the Army. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Source (Statutes Revised Section Source (U.S. Code) at Large) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 6303.................. 41:12.

(3)), (g). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ In subsection (a), the words ``The party to whom the Federal Government gives a contract or order'' are substituted for ``the party to whom such contract or order is given'' for clarity. The words ``A purported transfer in violation of this subsection'' are substituted for ``any such transfer'' because an actual transfer is precluded by this provision. In subsection (b)(1), the words ``amounts due from the Federal Government'' are substituted for ``moneys due or to become due from the United States or from any agency or department thereof'' to eliminate unnecessary words. The words ``may be assigned'' are added to provide explicitly for authority that is necessarily implied by the source provision. In subsection (b)(3), the words ``in the case of any contract entered into after October 9, 1940'' are omitted as obsolete. In subsection (b)(5), the words ``participating in such financing'' are omitted as unnecessary. In subsection (b)(8), the words ``is not liable to make any refund to the Federal Government'' are substituted for ``no [liability] . . . shall create or impose any liability on the part of the assignee to make restitution, refund, or repayment to the United States of any amount heretofore since July 1, 1950, or hereafter received under the assignment'' to eliminate unnecessary words. The words ``an assignor's liability to the Federal Government'' are substituted for ``liability of any nature of the assignor to the United States or any department or agency thereof'' for clarity and to eliminate unnecessary words. In subsection (b)(9)(A), the words ``except any such contract under which full payment has been made'' are omitted as unnecessary because subsection (b)(8) precludes refund where full payment has already been made. The words ``payments made to an assignee under the contract'' are substituted for ``payments to be made to the assignee of any moneys due or to become due under such contract'' to eliminate unnecessary words. In subsection (b)(9)(B), the words ``When a `no reduction or setoff' provision as described in subparagraph (A) is included in a contract'' are substituted for ``If a provision described in subsection (e) of this section or a provision to the same general effect has been at any time heretofore or is hereafter included or inserted in any such contract'', the words ``payments to the assignee'' are substituted for ``payments to be made thereafter to an assignee of any moneys due or to become due'', and the words ``an assignor's liability'' are substituted for ``any liability of any nature of the assignor to the United States or any department or agency thereof'', for clarity and to eliminate unnecessary words. In subsection (b)(9)(C), the text of 40:15(g), which provided that nothing in 40:15 affected rights and obligations accrued before subsection (g) was added by the Act of May 15, 1951 (ch. 75, 65 Stat. 41), is omitted as obsolete. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Source (Statutes Revised Section Source (U.S. Code) at Large) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 6306(a)............... 41:22 (1st sentence).

In subsection (b)(2)(B), the words ``Farm Credit Act of 1971 (12 U.S.C. 2001 et seq.)'' are substituted for ``Federal Farm Loan Act'' and ``Farm Credit Act of 1933'' because of section 5.40(a), formerly 5.26(a), of the Farm Credit Act of 1971 (Pub. L. 92-181, 12 U.S.C. 2001 note). In subsection (b)(2)(C), the words ``Home Owners' Loan Act'' are substituted for ``Home Owners' Loan Act of 1933'' because of the amendment to 12:1461 made by Public Law 101-73. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Source (Statutes Revised Section Source (U.S. Code) at Large) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 6307.................. 41:23.

L. 97-31, Sec. 12(16), Aug. 6, 1981, 95 Stat. 154. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ In subsection (a), the words ``Air Force'' are added because of section 207(a) and (f) of the National Security Act of 1947 (ch. 343, 61 Stat. 502, 503). Section 207(a) and (f) was repealed by section 53 of the Act of August 10, 1956 (ch. 1041, 70A Stat. 676). Section 1 of the Act of August 10, 1956 (70A Stat. 1) enacted Title 10, ``Armed Forces'' and under subtitle D of title 10 the Department of the Air Force remained an independent administrative entity in the Department of Defense. Subsection (b)(2)(B) is set out as a separate provision to clarify that the certification applies only to contracts other than contracts with the Federal Government. If the certification were to be construed as applying to all contracts, then the words ``under a contract with the United States or'' in section 2 of the Act of June 22, 1942, would be rendered meaningless. In subsection (b)(2)(B), the words ``Secretary of the Army'' are substituted for ``Secretary of War'', and the words ``Secretary of the Air Force'' are added, because of sections 205(a) and 207(a) and (f) of the National Security Act of 1947 (ch. 343, 61 Stat. 501, 502, 503). Sections 205(a) and 207(a) and (f) were repealed by section 53 of the Act of August 10, 1956 (ch. 1041, 70A Stat. 676). Section 1 of the Act of August 10, 1956 (70A Stat. 1) enacted Title 10, ``Armed Forces'' and under sections 3010 to 3013 and 8010 to 8013 the Departments of the Army and Air Force remained under the administrative supervision of the Secretaries of the Army and Air Force, respectively. The words ``Secretary of the Department in which the Coast Guard is operating'' are substituted for ``Secretary of Transportation'' because of 6:468(b) and (h), 551(d), and 552(d), 14:1 and 3, and the Department of Homeland Security Reorganization Plan of November 25, 2002 (H.

In paragraph (1), the words ``under the contract'' are substituted for ``used in the performance of the contract'' in 41:35(a) to eliminate unnecessary words and for consistency in the chapter. The words ``Sections 35 to 45 of this title shall apply to all contracts entered into pursuant to invitations for bids issued on or after ninety days from June 30, 1936'' in 41:45 are omitted as obsolete. In paragraph (2), the words ``under the contract'' are substituted for ``used in the performance of the contract'' to eliminate unnecessary words and for consistency in the chapter. In paragraph (3), the words ``No individual under 16 years of age'' are substituted for ``no male person under sixteen years of age and no female person under eighteen years of age'' to reflect the interpretation of this provision subsequent to enactment of civil rights laws such as section 703 of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (42:2000e-2), as carried out by the Department of Labor through 41 C.F.R. Part 50-201.104. The words ``incarcerated individual'' are substituted for ``convict labor'' the first time the words appear because the term ``convict labor'' is ambiguous and may be interpreted to include individuals who are not incarcerated. This would be an inappropriate interpretation because 41:35(c) provides an exception for ``convict labor'' that satisfies the conditions of 18:1761(c) regarding certain non-Federal prison work projects. The words ``or production'' are omitted for consistency with the source provisions for paragraphs (1) and (2) and because, in this context, the concept of ``production'' is included in the words ``manufacture or furnishing''. The words ``under the contract'' are substituted for ``included in such contract'' for consistency in the chapter. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Source (Statutes Revised Section Source (U.S. Code) at Large) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 6503.................. 41:36. June 30, 1936, ch. 881, Sec. 2, 49 Stat. 2037. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ In subsection (b)(1), the words ``individual under 16 years of age'' are substituted for ``male person under sixteen years of age or each female person under eighteen years of age'' to reflect the interpretation of this provision subsequent to enactment of civil rights laws such as section 703 of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (42:2000e-2), as carried out by the Department of Labor through 41 C.F.R. Part 50-201.104. The words ``incarcerated individual'' are substituted for ``convict laborer'' because of the exception to convict labor that satisfies the conditions of 18:1761(c). Section 1761 does not apply to non-incarcerated convicts. Subsection (b)(2) is substituted for ``a sum equal to the amount of any deductions, rebates, refunds, or underpayment of wages due to any employee engaged in the performance of such contract'' for consistency in the chapter. In subsection (c), the words ``made the contract'' and ``make other contracts'' are substituted for ``entering into such contract'' and ``enter into other contracts'', respectively, for consistency in the revised title. In subsection (d), the words ``suit brought by the Attorney General'' are substituted for ``suits brought in the name of the United States of America by the Attorney General thereof'' to eliminate unnecessary words. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Source (Statutes Revised Section Source (U.S. Code) at Large) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 6504.................. 41:37.

In subsection (a), the words ``or violated'' are added for consistency in the chapter. In subsection (b), the words ``contract described in section 6502 of this title'' are substituted for ``contracts'' to clarify the scope of the prohibition. The words ``the date of the determination by the Secretary that a breach or violation occurred'' are substituted for ``the date the Secretary of Labor determines such breach to have occurred'' to clarify that the three-year period begins with the date of the Secretary's determination and not with the date of the breach or violation. The words ``or violation'' are added for consistency in the chapter. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Source (Statutes Revised Section Source (U.S. Code) at Large) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 6505.................. 41:43.

In subsection (c), the words ``and to prescribe rules and regulations with respect thereto'' are omitted as unnecessary because of subsection (b). In subsection (d), the words ``without regard to the provisions of the civil-service laws'', which appear in section 4 of the Walsh-Healey Act (June 30, 1936, ch. 881, 49 Stat. 2038), are omitted as obsolete because of Executive Order 8743, April 23, 1941 (5 U.S.C. 3301 note), issued by the President pursuant to the Act of November 26, 1940, ch. 919, title I, Sec. 1, 54 Stat. 1211. The words ``the Classification Act of 1923'', which appear in section 4 of the Walsh-Healey Act (June 30, 1936, ch. 881, 49 Stat. 2038), are considered to be a reference to the Classification Act of 1949 because of section 1106(a) of the Classification Act of 1949 (Oct. 28, 1949, ch. 782, 63 Stat. 972). The words ``chapter 51 and subchapter III of chapter 53 of title 5'' are substituted for the reference to the Classification Act of 1949 because of section 7(b) of Public Law 89-554 (5 U.S.C. note prec. 101). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Source (Statutes Revised Section Source (U.S. Code) at Large) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 6507(a)............... 41:43a(b) (1st sentence).

The words ``may bring an action to enforce the order'' are substituted for ``upon the application by'' for consistency in the revised title and with other titles of the United States Code. The words ``the United States District Court for the District of Columbia'' in section 5 of the Act of June 30, 1936 (which were substituted for ``the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia'' by section 32(b) of the Act of June 25, 1948 (ch. 646, 62 Stat. 991), as amended by section 127 of the Act of May 24, 1949 (ch. 139, 63 Stat. 107), and which were were editorially omitted from 41:39) are omitted as included in ``a district court of the United States'' because of sections 88 and 132(a) of title 28, United States Code. The words ``within the court's judicial district''' are substituted for ``within the jurisdiction of which'' for clarity and for consistency in the revised title and with other titles of the United States Code. The words ``requiring the person to obey the order issued under subsection (c)'' are substituted for ``requiring such person to appear before him or representative designated by him, to produce evidence if, as, and when so ordered, and to give testimony relating to the matter under investigation or in question'' for clarity and to eliminate unnecessary words. In subsection (e), the duty to make findings of fact is restated as a duty of the Secretary (or the Secretary's representative). The grammatical structure of the last sentence of 41:39 seems to suggest that the court, rather than the Secretary (or the Secretary's representative), serves as fact finder. However, the provision taken as a whole indicates that it is the Secretary (or the Secretary's representative) who serves as fact finder. It is the Secretary (or the Secretary's representative) before whom hearings are held, witnesses testify, and evidence is produced. The court's involvement is limited to compelling recalcitrant witnesses ``to appear before him [the Secretary] or representative designated by him''. The restatement clarifies the generally accepted understanding that the Secretary (or the Secretary's representative) serves as fact finder (see, e.g., United States v. Sweet Briar, 92 F. Supp. 777, 780 (W.D.S.C. 1950) (``the Secretary `shall make findings of fact'''); Ready-Mix Concrete Company v. United States, 158 F. Supp. 571, 578 (Cl.

Commas are inserted after ``exceptions'' and ``otherwise'' to clarify that the words ``when justice or the public interest will be served'' apply to exceptions in ``specific cases'' as well as ``otherwise''. The word ``thereby'' is omitted as unnecessary. In subsection (b), the words ``an agency of the United States'' are substituted for ``the contracting agency'', and the words ``minimum wages'' are substituted for ``minimum rates of pay'', for consistency in the chapter. In subsection (c), the word ``rules'' is omitted as included in ``regulations''. The words ``as hereinbefore described'' are omitted as unnecessary. The words ``minimum wages'' are substituted for ``minimum rates of pay'' for consistency in the chapter. In subsection (d), the words ``received by any employee affected'' are omitted as unnecessary. In subsection (e), the words ``or all'' are omitted as unnecessary. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Source (Statutes Revised Section Source (U.S. Code) at Large) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 6509(a)............... 41:43a(a).

In subsection (c), the words ``has the right of judicial review'' are substituted for ``Review . . . may be had'' for consistency with subsection (b) and with section 6510(b) of the revised title and because the review provided for in chapter 7 of title 5 is denominated as judicial review. The words ``chapter 7 of title 5'' are substituted for ``section 10 of the Administrative Procedure Act'' on authority of section 7(b) of Public Law 89-554 (5 U.S.C. note prec. 101). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Source (Statutes Revised Section Source (U.S. Code) at Large) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 6510.................. 41:43b.

June 30, 1936, ch. 881, Sec. 8, 49 Stat. 2039. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Paragraph (1) is substituted for ``Title III of the act entitled `An Act making appropriations for the Treasury and Post Office Departments for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1934, and for other purposes', approved May 3, 1933 (commonly known as the Buy American Act)'' for consistency in the revised title and to correct an error in the source, which incorrectly gives May 3, 1933, rather than March 3, 1933, as the date of approval. Paragraph (2) is substituted for ``the Act entitled `An Act relating to the rate of wages for laborers and mechanics employed on public buildings of the United States and the District of Columbia by contractors and subcontractors, and for other purposes', approved March 3, 1931 (commonly known as the Bacon-Davis Act), as amended from time to time'' because of section 5(c) of Public Law 107-217 (40 U.S.C. note prec. 101) and for consistency with title 40. The words ``the labor provisions of Title II of the National Industrial Recovery Act, approved June 16, 1933, as extended'' are omitted as obsolete because of section 201 of the Act of June 21, 1938 (ch. 554, 52 Stat. 816), as amended by the Acts of June 27, 1940 (ch. 437, 54 Stat. 633), April 5, 1941 (ch. 40, 55 Stat. 110), and June 27, 1942 (ch. 450, 56 Stat. 410). The words ``or [the labor provisions] of section 7 of the Emergency Relief Appropriation Act, approved April 8, 1935'' are omitted as obsolete. The intended reference was probably to section 7 of the Emergency Relief Appropriation Act of 1935 (49 Stat. 118). Section 7 of the Emergency Relief Appropriation Act of 1935 provided that the President shall require certain rates of pay for persons engaged in carrying out projects that were financed by amounts being appropriated in that Act. Paragraph (3) is substituted for ``the Act entitled `An Act to provide for the diversification of employment of Federal prisoners, for their training and schooling in trades and occupations, and for other purposes', approved May 27, 1930, as amended and supplemented by the Act approved June 23, 1934'' for consistency with title 18. The Act of May 27, 1930 (ch. 340, 46 Stat. 391) and the Act of June 23, 1934 (ch. 736, 48 Stat. 1211), which were classified to sections 744a to 744n of former title 18, were substantially repealed and were replaced by chapter 307 and section 4162 of title 18 in the codification of title 18 by the Act of June 25, 1948 (ch. 645, 62 Stat. 683). Subsequently, section 4162 of title 18 was repealed by section 218(a)(4) of Public Law 98-473 (98 Stat. 2027). CHAPTER 67--SERVICE CONTRACT LABOR STANDARDS Sec. 6701. Definitions. 6702.

In paragraph (4)(A), the words ``the outer Continental Shelf'' are substituted for ``Outer Continental Shelf lands'' for consistency with the definition in 43:1331 and for consistency with the more common usage generally found in subchapter III of chapter 29 of title 43. The words ``Eniwetok Atoll, Kwajalein Atoll'' are omitted because they are part of the Marshall Islands and therefore no longer part of the United States.

In subsection (b)(6), the words ``from time to time, may review'' are substituted for ``is authorized to review at least every three years'' because the source law, while effectively granting the Administrator authority to conduct the reviews, does not require the Administrator to conduct any reviews, and does not restrict the number of reviews the Administrator may conduct during any time period. The words ``beginning with the third year after November 1, 1978'' are omitted as obsolete. The words ``the dollar amount specified in paragraph (1)'' are substituted for ``the dollar amount defined in subsection (a) of this section as a small claim'' to eliminate unnecessary words and because 41:608(a), restated as paragraph (1), does not explicitly provide a definition for the term ``small claim''. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Source (Statutes Revised Section Source (U.S. Code) at Large) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 7107(a)............... 41:607(g).

The words ``the decision'' are substituted for ``the decision of the board of contract appeals'' and for ``the board's decision'' to eliminate unnecessary words and for consistency with 41:607(g)(1)(A). In subsection (a)(2)(B), the words ``in any case'' are omitted as unnecessary. In subsection (d), the words ``United States Court of Federal Claims'' are substituted for ``United States Claims Court'' because of section 902(b)(1) of the Federal Courts Administration Act of 1992 (Pub. L. 102-572, 106 Stat. 4516, 28 U.S.C. 171 note). In subsection (f)(1), (3), and (4), the words ``agency board'' are substituted for ``board of contract appeals'' to eliminate unnecessary words and for consistency with the definition of ``agency board'' in section 7101 of the revised title. In subsection (f)(1), the words ``under consideration'' are substituted for ``at issue'' to avoid potential confusion with the words ``issue described in paragraph (2)''. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Source (Statutes Revised Section Source (U.S. Code) at Large) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 7108.................. 41:612.

Subsection (b) is substituted for ``The interest provided for in this section shall be paid at the rate established by the Secretary of the Treasury pursuant to Public Law 92-41 (85 Stat. 97) for the Renegotiation Board'' to eliminate obsolete language and to codify the criteria under which the interest rate is computed. Section 2(a)(3) of the Act of July 1, 1971 (Pub. L. 92-41, 85 Stat. 97), amended section 105(b)(2) of the Renegotiation Act of 1951 (Mar. 23, 1951, ch. 15, 65 Stat. 13) by adding provisions substantially similar to those enacted here. However, the Renegotiation Act of 1951 (Mar. 23, 1951, ch. 15, 65 Stat. 7) was omitted from the Code pursuant to section 102(c)(1) of the Act (65 Stat. 8), amended several times, the last being Public Law 94-185 (89 Stat. 1061), which provided that most provisions of that Act do not apply to receipts and accruals attributable to contract performance after September 30, 1976, and in view of the termination of the Renegotiation Board and the transfer of property and records of the Board to the Administrator of the General Services Administration on March 31, 1979, pursuant to Public Law 95-431 (92 Stat. 1043). Although the Renegotiation Board is no longer in existence, Federal agencies, including the General Services Administration, are required to use interest rates that are computed under the criteria set out in this subsection. See 31:3902(a) and the website of the Bureau of the Public Debt, available at http://www.publicdebt.treas.gov/opd/opdprmt2.htm.

The word ``product'' is substituted for ``commodity'' to reflect the current usage of the items produced in the Committee's program. In this section, the text of 41:48b(6) is omitted as unnecessary. In paragraph (9), the words ``the Northern Mariana Islands'' are substituted for ``the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands'' because the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands terminated. See 48 U.S.C. note prec. 1681. However, section 502(a)(2) of the Covenant to Establish a Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands in Political Union with the United States of America (48 U.S.C. 1801 note) provided that laws in existence on the effective date of section 502 that were applicable to Guam and that were of general application to the several States would apply to the Northern Mariana Islands. The Marshall Islands, Palau, and the Federated States of Micronesia are not included because although they were part of the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands, they are independent entities and not part of the United States. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Source (Statutes Revised Section Source (U.S. Code) at Large) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 8502(a), (b).......... 41:46(a) (less words in June 25, 1938, parentheses before par. ch. 697, Sec. 1 (1)).

In the amendment to the original provision by section 1 of Public Law 92-28 (85 Stat. 77), an officer or employee of the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare was one of the members appointed to the Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled, because the Department, through the Rehabilitation Services Administration, had the major governmental function in the field of vocational rehabilitation for the blind and other severely handicapped and administered related vocational rehabilitation programs for individuals with disabilities. See House Report 92-228. Under section 301(a)(4)(A) and (C) and (b)(3) of the Department of Education Organization Act (20:3441(a)(4)(A) and (C) and (b)(3)), the functions and offices of the Department and the functions of the Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare and the Commissioner of Rehabilitation Services were transferred to the Department or Secretary of Education. Section 509 of the Act (20:3508) redesignated the Department and Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare as the Department and Secretary of Health and Human Services, respectively, and provided that references to the Department and Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare were deemed to be references to the Department or Secretary of Health and Human Services except to the extent a reference was to a function of the Department or Secretary of Education. The reference in 41:46(a)(1) was changed to ``Department of Health and Human Services'' but should have been changed to ``Department of Education''. Furthermore, the regulations of the Committee include the Department of Education in the list of members of the Committee. See 41 CFR 51-2.1. In subsection (c), the text of 41:46(d)(2) and (4) is omitted as obsolete. In subsection (f)(1), the reference to section 5376 of title 5 is substituted for the reference to grade GS-18 of the General Schedule because of section 529 [title I, Sec. 101(c)(1)] of the Treasury, Postal Service and General Government Appropriations Act, 1991 (Public Law 101-509, 104 Stat. 1442, 5 U.S.C. 5376 note). The word ``actual'' is omitted as unnecessary. The words ``A member is entitled to travel expenses, including a per diem allowance instead of subsistence, as provided under section 5703 of title 5'' are substituted for 41:46(e)(3) to eliminate unnecessary words. The reference to section 5703 of title 5 is substituted for the reference to section 5703(b) of title 5 because of the amendment to section 5703 by section 4 of the Travel Expense Amendments Act of 1975 (Public Law 94-22, 89 Stat. 85). In subsection (g), the words ``its duties and powers'' are omitted as surplus. In subsection (g)(1), the reference to chapter 33 of title 5 is substituted for ``the provisions of title 5 governing appointments in the competitive service'' for clarity and for consistency with other titles of the United States Code. The words ``relating to classification and General Schedule pay rates'' are omitted as unnecessary. In subsection (j), the words ``and to the Congress'' are omitted pursuant to section 3003 of the Federal Reports Elimination and Sunset Act of 1995 (31 U.S.C. 1113 note).
