TITLE 13—CENSUS
§ 5
HISTORICAL AND REVISION NOTES
Section is new, and was inserted to conform with 1950
Reorganization Plan No. 5, effective May 24, 1950, §§ 1, 2,
15 F.R. 3174, 64 Stat. 1263, which is set out as a note
under section 591 of title 5, U. S. C., 1952 ed., Executive
Departments and Government Officers and Employees
[now set out in the Appendix to Title 5, Government
Organization and Employees]. That plan transferred all
functions (with a few exceptions not applicable to the
Census Bureau) of all agencies, officers and employees
of the Department of Commerce to the Secretary of
Commerce, and vested power in him to delegate the
functions so transferred, or any of his other functions,
to such agencies, officers or employees within the De-
partment as he designates.
See, also, section 253 of title 13, U.S.C., 1952 ed., which
provided for delegation of functions in connection with
the quinquennial censuses of governments, and author-
ized the Secretary to promulgate rules and regulations
with respect to such censuses. That section has been
omitted from this revised title, as the provision thereof
for delegation of functions is covered by this section,
and the provision thereof which related to rules and
regulations is covered by section 22 of title 1, U.S.C.,
1952 ed., General Provisions.
Because of the transfer effected by 1950 Reorganiza-
tion Plan No. 5, referred to above, sections of title 13,
U.S.C., 1952 ed., which prescribed functions of the Bu-
reau of the Census, the Census Office, or the Director
of the Census, have, in this revised title, been changed
to refer to the Secretary.
