Lapse in Appropriations

Please note that a lapse in appropriations has caused GAO to shut down its operations. Therefore, GAO will not be able to publish reports or otherwise update this website until GAO resumes operations. In addition, the vast majority of GAO personnel are not permitted to work. Consequently, calls or emails to agency personnel may not be returned until GAO resumes operations. For details on how the bid protest process will be handled during the shutdown, please see the legal decisions page. For information related to the GAO Personnel Appeals Board (PAB), please see the PAB webpage.

Comments on Proposed Change to Joint Travel Regulation

B-202576 Apr 10, 1981
Jump To:

Highlights

A proposed change to Joint Travel Regulations would affect the computation of station housing allowances from the present method to a rent-plus method based on a monthly rental allowance less the member's basic allowance for quarters. GAO believes that, in view of the broad authority given the Secretaries concerned in the statute, a regulation providing for a rent-plus system does not appear to be legally objectionable.
