Highlights
The Department of State questioned its authority to pay travel expenses for family members. The Department has authority to pay the expenses to the temporary duty (TDY) station when home leave follows TDY. Since consultation or training incident to TDY is generally essential to the new assignment, the "en route" requirement would not be contravened.
