Pub. L. 94-212, tit. VII, sec. 747

Sec. 747. Appropriations available to the Department of Defense for providing transportation of household effects of members of the armed forces pursuant to section 406(b) of title 37, United States Code, shall be available hereafter to pay a monetary allowance in place of such transportation, to a member who, under regulations prescribed by the Secretary of the military department concerned, participates in a program designated by the Secretaries in which his baggage and household effects are moved by privately owned or rental vehicle. Such allowance shall not be limited to reimbursement for actual expenses and may be paid in advance of the transportation of said baggage and household effects. However, the monetary allowance shall be in an amount which will provide savings to the government when the total cost of such movement is compared with the cost which otherwise would have been incurred under section 406(b).
