Federal Travel Regulation; Agency Requirements for Payment of Expenses Connected With the Death of Certain Employees

Streszczenie

This final rule amends the Federal Travel Regulation (FTR) provisions pertaining to payment by the Government of expenses connected with the death of certain employees while performing official Government travel, and for transportation of the remains of a member of the employee's immediate family who dies while residing with the employee outside the continental United States (CONUS) or in transit thereto or therefrom. This amendment implements the authority provided in 5 U.S.C. 5742 to pay certain expenses in connection with escort of remains of certain employees. It also amends a CFR section heading to clarify that the regulation applies when a member of an employee's immediate family is in transit from as well as to the employee's duty station outside CONUS.
