Amendment of Section

Pub. L. 116–92, div. A, title IX, §902(93)(B), (C), Dec. 20, 2019, 133 Stat. 1554, provided that, effective on the next date on which Congress confirms an individual to serve as the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering after Dec. 20, 2019, this section is amended by striking the item relating to the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering. See 2019 Amendment note below.

The proviso in paragraph (15) of former section 2211(b) is carried into section 5314. The remainder of paragraph (15) is omitted but not repealed, see table III. The part of paragraph (15) that is omitted but not repealed provides that the position of Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation shall be in Level II of the Federal Executive Salary Schedule so long as the position is held by the incumbent of the position on August 14, 1964. The omission of this provision from title 5, without repealing the corresponding provision of the source statute, in effect leaves existing statute unchanged insofar as it relates to the present incumbent of the position of Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

Standard changes are made to conform with the definitions applicable and the style of this title as outlined in the preface to the report.
