As you know, Executive Order 12466 charged GSA, in consultation with Treasury, to prescribe regulations to implement the tax- reimbursement section and also ordered. GSA to issue guidance to implement the relocation-service section. GSA has informed us that their proposed regulations that will describe tax- reimbursement benefits should be forwarded to 0MB for review in about two weeks. The proposed relocation-service regulations. should be submitted in approximately three weeks for OMMB review. We have provided OMB's Office of Information and. Regulatory Affairs and the 0MB budget examiner responsible for GSA with a copy of your letter. They have in turn brought your concerns to .the attention of the appropriate GSA officials. Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. Sinc.erely, D'aYid Sitrin Deputy Associate Director National Security Division Approved For Release 2009/02/02 : CIA-RDP86M00886RO01900100007-7 I STAT -aa9 Approved For Release 2009/02/02 : CIA-RDP86M00886RO01900100007-7 Central Intelligence Agency 9 MAY 1984 Dr. Alton G. Keel Associate Director for National Security and International Affairs Office of Management and Budget Washington, D.C. 20503 DD A Registry Dear Al: Public Law 98-151 was passed on 14 November 1983 to alleviate the significant out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Federal employees who relocate domestically to perform the business of the U.S. Government. It troubles me that two of the potentially most significant benefits in the legislation, tax reimbursement and the use of third party relocation firms, are not yet available to Federal employees. The uncertainty and appre- hension caused by the delay in providing formal instructions on these two key benefits has exacerbated the disruption to orderly domestic relocation decisions on many of the a roximately~ CIA employees who are relocated on an annual basis. The people CIA expects to reassign during the spring and summer months urgently require an authoritative determination of what their benefits are, or they will continue to suffer out-of-pocket costs without recourse to the possibility of retroactive reimb ment for some future authorized service provided by a relocation firm. In order for CIA to adequately plan for the current spring/summer rotations and later, I would appreciate your candid views as to the timing of implementation and the benefits to be provided b the tax reimbursement and third party firm sections of Public Law 98-151.
