We are codifying a long-standing practice (5 U.S.C. 3301 and 3302) of providing agencies with the option of either certifying a candidate for only one vacancy at a time, or certifying a candidate simultaneously for all vacancies for which that candidate expresses an interest, is eligible, and is within reach.

5 CFR 410
Legal Deadline:
None
Abstract:
Since the December 1996 publication of the final rules on training, subsections 5 CFR 410.309 (continued service agreements) and 5 CFR 410.404 (expenses of training and meetings) have caused confusion in agencies, the agencies have asked for clearer regulations. 5 CFR 410.309, as written, omits allowance for agency heads to delegate authority to define requirements for continued service. It also omits circumstances when the requirement for continued service can be waived, which has caused confusion for agencies in developing their continued service agreements. Amending 5 CFR 410.309 returns to regulation, language removed in 1996 that has had the unintended effect of limiting agency head authority in the area of continued service agreements for training. With increasing interest in academic education and service agreements, agencies have expressed concern about their legal authority with regard to theses agreements.
As written, 5 CFR 410.404 does not sufficiently clarify distinctions between training and meetings. 5 U.S.C. 4109 provides agencies authority to pay the expenses of training. 5 U.S.C. 4110 provides them authority to pay the expenses of meetings. However, 5 CFR 410.404 blurs the distinctions between these two; amending it would make clear the distinctions, and clarify conditions under which a meeting may be considered training.

These financial sanctions may be imposed in addition to suspension or debarment; the other forms of sanctions authorized by the statute. The regulatory provisions for suspension and debarment are being implemented in an earlier amendment to 5 CFR 890, subpart J.

Abstract:
The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is issuing regulations to implement recent amendments to Executive Order 10000 regarding nonforeign area cost-of-living allowances (COLAs). There regulations eliminate the separate COLA rate paid to Federal employees with commissary and exchange privileges; allow OPM to conduct COLA surveys less frequently; and permit OPM to reduce COLA rates gradually regardless of the cause of the reduction. These changes will accomplish several of the provisions agreed upon under a recent settlement of litigation concerning nonforeign area COLAs.
