TITLE VIII--ACQUISITION POLICY, ACQUISITION MANAGEMENT, AND RELATED MATTERS

Subtitle D—Provisions Relating to Acquisition Workforce

P. L. 115-

House Conference Report. 115-404

Section 1705(d)(2)(D) of title 10, United States Code, is amended to read as follows:

“(D) The Secretary of Defense may adjust the amount specified in subparagraph (C) for a fiscal year if the Secretary determines that the amount is greater or less than reasonably needed for purposes of the Fund for such fiscal year. The Secretary may not adjust the amount for a fiscal year to an amount that is more than $600,000,000 or less than $400,000,000.”.

The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 844) that would amend section 1705(d)(2)(D) of title 10, United States Code, to clarify that the Secretary of Defense may adjust the amount for a fiscal year to an amount that is not more than $600.0 million and not less than $400.0 million if the Secretary determines that the amount is greater or less than reasonably needed for the purposes of the Department of Defense Acquisition Workforce Development Fund for such fiscal year to assist with acquisition workforce planning and development.

The House bill contained no similar provision.

The House recedes.
