Pub. L. 104-99, tit. I, sec. 112

Sec. 112. Notwithstanding any other provision of this title of this Act, except section 106, whenever the rate for operations for any continuing project or activity provided by section 101 or section 111 for which there is a budget request would result in a furlough of Government employees, that rate for operations may be increased to the minimum level that would enable the furlough to be avoided. No new contracts or grants shall be awarded in excess of an amount that bears the same ratio to the rate for operations provided by this section as the number of days covered by this Act bears to 366: Provided, That the first sentence of section 112 shall not apply except to furloughs that exceed one workday per pay period for the affected workforce during the period of January 26, 1996 through March 15, 1996.
