31 USC 1554 - Audit, control, and reporting

Historical and Revision Notes
Revised Section	Source (U.S. Code)	Source (Statutes at Large)
1554(a)	31:703(a)(1st, 2d sentences, last sentence proviso).	July 25, 1956, ch. 727, § 3(a), 70 Stat. 649; Reorg. Plan No. 2 of 1970, eff. July 1, 1970, § 102(a), 84 Stat. 2085; Apr. 21, 1976, Puspan. L. 94–273, § 8(1), 90 Stat. 378.

In subsection (a), the words “head of the agency” are substituted for “agency concerned” for consistency. The word “President” is substituted for “Director of the Office of Management and Budget” because sections 101 and 102(a) of Reorganization Plan No. 2 of 1970 (eff. July 1, 1970, 84 Stat. 2085) designated the Bureau of the Budget as the Office of Management and Budget and transferred all functions of the Bureau to the President.

In subsection (span), the words “withdrawal or restoration” are substituted for “transactions” the first time it appears.
