(a) The officers, employees, and property (including office equipment and official records) of the Civil Aeronautics Administration of the Department of Commerce, and of the Airways Modernization Board, and such employees and property (including office equipment and official records) as the President, after consultation with the Civil Aeronautics Board, shall determine to have been employed by the Civil Aeronautics Board in the exercise and performance of those powers and duties vested in and imposed upon it by the Civil Aeronautics Act of 1938, as amended, and which are vested by this Act in the Agency, shall be transferred to the Agency upon such date or dates as the President shall specify: Provided, That the transfer of such personnel shall be without reduction in classification or compensation, except that this requirement shall not operate after the end of the fiscal year during which such transfer is made to prevent the adjustment of classification or compensation to conform to the duties to which such transferred personnel may be assigned. (b) Such of the unexpended balances of appropriations available for use by the Civil Aeronautics Administration of the Department of Commerce and by the Airways Modernization Board, and such of the unexpended balances of appropriations available for use by the Civil Aeronautics Board in the exercise and performance of those powers and duties vested in and imposed upon it by the Civil Aeronautics Act of 1938, as amended, and which are vested by this Act in the Administrator, shall be transferred to the Agency upon such date or dates as the President shall specify, and shall be available for use in connection with the exercise and performance of the powers and duties vested in and imposed upon the Administrator by this Act. Where provisions of this Act which are to be administered by the Board are in substance reenactments (with or without modifications) of provisions of the Civil Aeronautics Act of 1938, as amended, administered by the Board at the time this section takes effect, the Board, in carrying out such provisions of this Act, may utilize unexpended balances of appropriations made for carrying out such provisions of the Civil Aeronautics Act of 1938, as amended. (c) All records transferred to the Administrator under this Act shall be available for use by him to the same extent as if such records were originally records of the Administrator.
