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 sec-
tions 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 (b), the words ‘‘withdrawal or restora-
tion’’ are substituted for ‘‘transactions’’ the first time
it appears.
