SEC. 127. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON AIRCRAFT CARRIER PROCUREMENT 
                        SCHEDULES.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
            (1) In the Congressional Budget Office report titled ``An 
        Analysis of the Navy's Fiscal Year 2016 Shipbuilding Plan'', the 
        Office stated as follows: ``To prevent the carrier force from 
        declining to 10 ships in the 2040s, 1 short of its inventory

[[Page 130 STAT. 2036]]

        goal of 11, the Navy could accelerate purchases after 2018 to 1 
        every four years, rather than 1 every five years''.
            (2) In a report submitted to Congress on March 17, 2015, the 
        Secretary of the Navy indicated the Department of the Navy has a 
        requirement of 11 aircraft carriers.

    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) the plan of the Department of the Navy to schedule the 
        procurement of one aircraft carrier every five years will reduce 
        the overall aircraft carrier inventory to 10 aircraft carriers, 
        a level insufficient to meet peacetime and war plan 
        requirements; and
            (2) to accommodate the required aircraft carrier force 
        structure, the Department of the Navy should--
                    (A) begin to program construction for the next 
                aircraft carrier to be built after the U.S.S. Enterprise

SEC. 241. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON DEVELOPMENT AND FIELDING OF FIFTH 
                        GENERATION AIRBORNE SYSTEMS.

    (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) The term ``fifth generation'', with respect to airborne 
        systems, means those airborne systems capable of operating 
        effectively in highly contested battle spaces defined by the 
        most capable currently fielded threats, and those reasonably 
        expected to be operational in the foreseeable future.
            (2) Continued modernization of Department of Defense 
        airborne systems such as fighters, bombers, and intelligence, 
        surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) aircraft with fifth 
        generation capabilities is required because--

[[Page 130 STAT. 2071]]

                    (A) adversary integrated air defense systems (IADS) 
                have created regions where fourth generation airborne 
                systems may be limited in their ability to effectively 
                operate;
                    (B) adversary aircraft, air-to-air missiles, and 
                airborne electronic attack or electronic protection 
                systems are advancing beyond the capabilities of fourth 
                generation airborne systems; and
                    (C) fifth generation airborne systems provide a 
                wider variety of options for a given warfighting 
                challenge, preserve the technological advantage of the 
                United States over near-peer threats, and serve as a 
                force multiplier by increasing situational awareness and 
                combat effectiveness of fourth generation airborne 
                systems.

    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that development 
and fielding of fifth generation airborne system systems should include 
the following:
            (1) Multispectral (radar, infrared, visual, emissions) low 
        observable (LO) design features, self-protection jamming, and 
        other capabilities that significantly delay or deny threat 
        system detection, tracking, and engagement.
            (2) Integrated avionics that autonomously fuse and 
        prioritize onboard multispectral sensors and offboard 
        information data to provide an accurate realtime operating 
        picture and data download for postmission exploitation and 
        analysis.
            (3) Resilient communications, navigation, and identification 
        techniques designed to effectively counter adversary attempts to 
        deny or confuse friendly systems.
            (4) Robust and secure networks linking individual platforms 
        to create a common, accurate, and highly integrated picture of 
        the battle space for friendly forces.
            (5) Advanced onboard diagnostics capable of monitoring 
        system health, accurately reporting system faults, and 
        increasing overall system performance and reliability.
            (6) Integrated platform and subsystem designs to maximize 
        lethality and survivability while enabling decision superiority.
            (7) Maximum consideration for the fielding of unmanned 
        platforms either employed in concert with fifth generation 
        manned platforms or as standalone unmanned platforms, to 
        increase warfighting effectiveness and reduce risk to personnel 
        during high risk missions.
            (8) Advanced air-to-air, air-to-ground, and other weapons 
        able to leverage fifth generation capabilities.
            (9) Comprehensive and high-fidelity live, virtual, and 
        constructive training systems, updated range infrastructure, and 
        sufficient threat-representative adversary training assets to 
        maximize fifth generation force proficiency, effectiveness, and 
        readiness while protecting sensitive capabilities.

   Subtitle F--National Commission on Military, National, and Public 
                                 Service

SEC. 551. PURPOSE, SCOPE, AND DEFINITIONS.

    (a) Purpose.--The purpose of this subtitle is to establish the 
National Commission on Military, National, and Public Service to--
            (1) conduct a review of the military selective service 
        process (commonly referred to as ``the draft''); and
            (2) consider methods to increase participation in military, 
        national, and public service in order to address national 
        security and other public service needs of the Nation.

    (b) Scope of Review.--In order to provide the fullest understanding 
of the matters required under the review under subsection (a), the 
Commission shall consider--
            (1) the need for a military selective service process, 
        including the continuing need for a mechanism to draft large 
        numbers of replacement combat troops;
            (2) means by which to foster a greater attitude and ethos of 
        service among United States youth, including an increased 
        propensity for military service;
            (3) the feasibility and advisability of modifying the 
        military selective service process in order to obtain for 
        military, national, and public service individuals with skills 
        (such as medical, dental, and nursing skills, language skills, 
        cyber skills, and science, technology, engineering, and 
        mathematics (STEM) skills) for which the Nation has a critical 
        need, without regard to age or sex; and
            (4) the feasibility and advisability of including in the 
        military selective service process, as so modified, an 
        eligibility or entitlement for the receipt of one or more 
        Federal benefits (such as educational benefits, subsidized or 
        secured student loans, grants or hiring preferences) specified 
        by the Commission for purposes of the review.

    (c) Definitions.--In this subtitle:
            (1) The term ``military service'' means active service (as 
        that term is defined in subsection (d)(3) of section 101 of 
        title 10, United States Code) in one of the uniformed services 
        (as that term is defined in subsection (a)(5) of such section).
            (2) The term ``national service'' means civilian employment 
        in Federal or State Government in a field in which the Nation 
        and the public have critical needs.
            (3) The term ``public service'' means civilian employment in 
        any non-governmental capacity, including with private for-profit 
        organizations and non-profit organizations (including with 
        appropriate faith-based organizations), that pursues and 
        enhances the common good and meets the needs of communities, the 
        States, or the Nation in sectors related to security, health, 
        care for the elderly, and other areas considered appropriate by 
        the Commission for purposes of this subtitle.

SEC. 552. PRELIMINARY REPORT ON PURPOSE AND UTILITY OF 
                        REGISTRATION SYSTEM UNDER MILITARY 
                        SELECTIVE SERVICE ACT.

    (a) Report Required.--To assist the Commission in carrying out its 
duties under this subtitle, the Secretary of Defense shall--
            (1) submit, not later than July 1, 2017, to the Committees 
        on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives 
        and to the Commission a report on the current and future need 
        for a centralized registration system under the Military 
        Selective Service Act (50 U.S.C. 3801 et seq.); and
            (2) provide a briefing on the results of the report.

    (b) Elements of Report.--The report required by subsection (a) shall 
include the following:
            (1) A detailed analysis of the current benefits derived, 
        both directly and indirectly, from the Military Selective 
        Service System, including--
                    (A) the extent to which mandatory registration 
                benefits military recruiting;
                    (B) the extent to which a national registration 
                capability serves as a deterrent to potential enemies of 
                the United States; and
                    (C) the extent to which expanding registration to 
                include women would impact these benefits.
            (2) An analysis of the functions currently performed by the 
        Selective Service System that would be assumed by the Department 
        of Defense in the absence of a national registration capability.
            (3) An analysis of the systems, manpower, and facilities 
        that would be needed by the Department to physically mobilize 
        inductees in the absence of the Selective Service System.
            (4) An analysis of the feasibility and utility of 
        eliminating the current focus on mass mobilization of primarily 
        combat troops in favor of a system that focuses on mobilization 
        of all military occupational specialties, and the extent to 
        which such a change would impact the need for both male and 
        female inductees.
            (5) A detailed analysis of the Department's personnel needs 
        in the event of an emergency requiring mass mobilization, 
        including--
                    (A) a detailed timeline, along with the factors 
                considered in arriving at this timeline, of when the 
                Department would require--
                          (i) the first inductees to report for service;
                          (ii) the first 100,000 inductees to report for 
                      service; and
                          (iii) the first medical personnel to report 
                      for service; and
                    (B) an analysis of any additional critical skills 
                that would be needed in the event of a national 
                emergency, and a timeline for when the Department would 
                require the first inductees to report for service.
            (6) A list of the assumptions used by the Department when 
        conducting its analysis in preparing the report.

    (c) Presidential Principles.--
            (1) In general.--Not later than three months after the 
        Commission establishment date, the President shall establish and 
        transmit to the Commission and Congress principles for reform of 
        the military selective service process, including means by which 
        to best acquire for the Nation skills necessary to meet the 
        military, national, and public service requirements of the

            (2) Elements.--The principles required under this subsection 
        shall address the following:
                    (A) Whether, in light of the current and predicted 
                global security environment and the changing nature of 
                warfare, there continues to be a continuous or potential 
                need for a military selective service process designed 
                to produce large numbers of combat members of the Armed 
                Forces, and if so, whether such a system should include 
                mandatory registration by all citizens and residents, 
                regardless of sex.
                    (B) The need, and how best to meet the need, of the 
                Nation, the military, the Federal civilian sector, and

                individuals possessing critical skills and abilities, 
                and how best to employ individuals possessing those 
                skills and abilities for military, national, or public 
                service.
                    (C) How to foster within the Nation, particularly 
                among United States youth, an increased sense of service 
                and civic responsibility in order to enhance the 
                acquisition by the Nation of critically needed skills 
                through education and training, and how best to acquire 
                those skills for military, national, or public service.
                    (D) How to increase a propensity among United States 
                youth for service in the military, or alternatively in 
                national or public service, including how to increase 
                the pool of qualified applicants for military service.
                    (E) The need in Government, including the military, 
                and in the civilian sector to increase interest,

                including science, technology, engineering, and 
                mathematics (STEM), national security, cyber, 
                linguistics and foreign language, education, health 
                care, and the medical professions.
                    (F) How military, national, and public service may 
                be incentivized, including through educational benefits, 
                grants, federally-insured loans, Federal or State hiring 
                preferences, or other mechanisms that the President 
                considers appropriate.
                    (G) Any other matters the President considers 
                appropriate for purposes of this subtitle.

        the Armed Forces and military retirees, and a comparison between

States Code, is amended by adding at the end the following paragraph:
    ``(3)(A) The Secretary of Defense shall develop and implement a 
comprehensive strategy to optimize management practices across the 
defense commissary system and the exchange system that reduce reliance 
of those systems on appropriated funding without reducing benefits to 
the patrons of those systems or the revenue generated by nonappropriated 
fund entities or instrumentalities of the Department of Defense for the 
morale, welfare, and recreation of members of the armed forces.
    ``(B) The Secretary shall ensure that savings generated due to such 
optimization practices are shared by the defense commissary system and 
the exchange system through contracts or agreements that appropriately 
reflect the participation of the systems in the development and 
implementation of such practices.
    ``(C) If the Secretary determines that the reduced reliance on 
appropriated funding pursuant to subparagraph (A) is insufficient to 
maintain the benefits to the patrons of the defense commissary system, 
and if the Secretary converts the defense commissary system to a 
nonappropriated fund entity or instrumentality pursuant to paragraph (1) 
of section 2484(j) of this title, the Secretary shall transfer 
appropriated funds pursuant to paragraph (2) of such section to ensure 
the maintenance of such benefits.
    ``(4) On not less than a quarterly basis, the Secretary shall 
provide to the congressional defense committees a briefing on the 
defense commissary system, including--
            ``(A) an assessment of the savings the system provides 
        patrons;

        title, including whether the system requires any appropriated 
        funds pursuant to paragraph (2) of such section;
            ``(D) the status of carrying out a program for such system 
        to sell private label merchandise; and

        appropriate.''.

    (b) Authorization to Supplement Appropriations Through Business

this title and the variable pricing program implemented pursuant to 
section 2484(i) of this title.''.

amended by adding at the end the following new subsections:
    ``(i) Variable Pricing Program.--(1) Notwithstanding subsection (e), 
and subject to subsection (k), the Secretary of Defense may establish a 
variable pricing program pursuant to which prices may be established in 
response to market conditions and customer demand, in accordance with 
the requirements of this subsection. Notwithstanding the amount of the 
uniform surcharge assessed in subsection (d), the Secretary may provide 
for an alternative surcharge of not more than five percent of sales 
proceeds under the variable pricing program to be made available for the 
purposes specified in subsection (h).
    ``(2) Subject to subsection (k), before establishing a variable 
pricing program under this subsection, the Secretary shall establish the 
following:
            ``(A) Specific, measurable benchmarks for success in the 
        provision of high quality grocery merchandise, discount savings 
        to patrons, and levels of customer satisfaction while achieving 
        savings for the Department of Defense.
            ``(B) A baseline of overall savings to patrons achieved by 
        commissary stores prior to the initiation of the variable 
        pricing program, based on a comparison of prices charged by 
        those stores on a regional basis with prices charged by relevant 
        local competitors for a representative market basket of goods.

    ``(3) The Secretary shall ensure that the defense commissary system 
implements the variable pricing program by conducting price comparisons 
using the methodology established for paragraph (2)(B) and adjusting 
pricing as necessary to ensure that pricing in the variable pricing 
program achieves overall savings to patrons that are consistent with the 
baseline savings established for the relevant region pursuant to such 
paragraph.
    ``(j) Conversion to Nonappropriated Fund Entity or 
Instrumentality.--(1) Subject to subsection (k), if the Secretary of 
Defense determines that the variable pricing program has met the 
benchmarks for success established pursuant to paragraph (2)(A) of 
subsection (i) and the savings requirements established pursuant to 
paragraph (3) of such subsection over a period of at least six months, 
the Secretary may convert the defense commissary system to a 
nonappropriated fund entity or instrumentality, with operating expenses 
financed in whole or in part by receipts from the sale of products and 
the sale of services. Upon such conversion, appropriated funds shall be 
transferred to the defense commissary system only in accordance with 
paragraph (2) or section 2491 of this title. The requirements of section 
2483 of this title shall not apply to the defense commissary system 
operating as a nonappropriated fund entity or instrumentality.
    ``(2) If the Secretary determines that the defense commissary system 
operating as a nonappropriated fund entity or instrumentality is likely 
to incur a loss in any fiscal year as a result of compliance with the 
savings requirement established in subsection (i), the Secretary shall 
authorize a transfer of appropriated funds available for such purpose to 
the commissary system in an amount sufficient to offset the anticipated 
loss. Any funds so transferred shall be considered to be nonappropriated 
funds for such purpose.
    ``(3)(A) The Secretary may identify positions of employees in the 
defense commissary system who are paid with appropriated

[[Page 130 STAT. 2171]]

funds whose status may be converted to the status of an employee of a 
nonappropriated fund entity or instrumentality.
    ``(B) The status and conversion of employees in a position 
identified by the Secretary under subparagraph (A) shall be addressed as 
provided in section 2491(c) of this title for employees in morale, 
welfare, and recreation programs, including with respect to requiring 
the consent of such employee to be so converted.

system as of the date of the enactment of this subsection shall suffer 
any loss of or decrease in pay as a result of a conversion made under 
this paragraph.

Secretary of Defense may not carry out such action until--

        committees a briefing on such action, including a justification 
        for such action; and

                evidence, that the member knew or reasonably should have 
                known that the member was ineligible for the bonus pay, 
                special pay, student loan repayment, or other special

                        PER DIEM REQUIREMENT FOR PERSONNEL ON 
                        LONG-TERM TEMPORARY DUTY ASSIGNMENTS.

    (a) Modification of Flat Rate.--
            (1) In general.--The Secretary of Defense shall take such 
        action as may be necessary to provide that, to the extent that 
        regulations implementing travel and transportation authorities 
        for military and civilian personnel of the Department of Defense 
        impose a flat rate per diem for meals and incidental expenses 
        for authorized travelers on long-term temporary duty assignments 
        that is at a reduced rate compared to the per diem rate 
        otherwise applicable, the Secretary concerned may waive the 
        applicability of such reduced rate and pay such travelers actual 
        expenses up to the full per diem rate for such travel in any 
        case when the Secretary concerned determines that the reduced 
        flat rate per diem for meals and incidental expenses is not 
        sufficient under the circumstances of the temporary duty 
        assignment.
            (2) Applicability.--The Secretary concerned may exercise the 
        authority provided pursuant to paragraph (1) with respect to per 
        diem payable for any day on or after the date of the enactment 
        of this Act.

    (b) Delegation of Authority.--The authority pursuant to subsection 
(a) may be delegated by the Secretary concerned to an officer at the 
level of lieutenant general or vice admiral, or above. Such authority 
may not be delegated to an officer below that level.
    (c) Waiver of Collection of Receipts.--The Secretary concerned or an 
officer to whom the authority pursuant to subsection (a) is delegated 
pursuant to subsection (b) may waive any requirement for the submittal 
of receipts by travelers on long-term temporary duty assignments for the 
purpose of receiving the full per diem rate pursuant to subsection (a) 
if the Secretary concerned or officer, as described in subsection (b), 
personally certifies that requiring travelers to submit receipts for 
that purpose will negatively affect mission performance or create an 
undue administrative burden.
    (d) Secretary Concerned Defined.--In this section, the term 
``Secretary concerned'' has the meaning given that term in section 101 
of title 37, United States Code.

                towards meeting a deductible applicable to the covered 
                beneficiary in the purchased care component of the

                purchased care component of the TRICARE program under 
                the pilot program and the estimated costs of those

        can be used to develop and continuously refresh high-performing 
        networks of health care providers at the national, regional, and 
        local level.
            (5) Elements of strategy.--The strategy required by

                management system between military medical treatment 
                facilities and health care providers in the private 
                sector that, when appropriate, effectively coordinates 
                and integrates health care across the continuum of care.
                    (C) With respect to telehealth services--
                          (i) the maximization of the use of such

                      communications between patients and health care 
                      providers and remote patient monitoring; and
                          (ii) the use of standardized payment methods 
                      to reimburse health care providers for the 
                      provision of such services.
                    (D) The use of value-based reimbursement 
                methodologies, including through the use of value-based 
                incentive programs under subsection (a), that transfer 
                financial risk to health care providers and managed care 
                support contractors.
                    (E) The use of financial incentives for contractors 
                and health care providers to receive an equitable share 
                in the cost savings to the Department resulting from 
                improvement in health outcomes for covered beneficiaries 
                and the experience of covered beneficiaries in receiving 
                health care.
                    (F) The use of incentives that emphasize prevention 
                and wellness for covered beneficiaries receiving health 
                care services from private sector entities to seek such

                health care team.
                    (F) Facilitate access to health care providers, 
                including--

                        TECHNICALLY ACCEPTABLE SOURCE SELECTION 
                        PROCESS.

    (a) Statement of Policy.--It shall be the policy of the Department 
of Defense to avoid using lowest price technically acceptable source 
selection criteria in circumstances that would deny the Department the 
benefits of cost and technical tradeoffs in the source selection 
process.
    (b) Revision of Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement.--
Not later than 120 days after the date of the enactment of this Act, the 
Secretary of Defense shall revise the Defense Federal Acquisition 
Regulation Supplement to require that, for solicitations issued on or 
after the date that is 120 days after the date of the enactment of this 
Act, lowest price technically acceptable source selection criteria are 
used only in situations in which--
            (1) the Department of Defense is able to comprehensively and 
        clearly describe the minimum requirements expressed in terms of 
        performance objectives, measures, and standards that will be 
        used to determine acceptability of offers;
            (2) the Department of Defense would realize no, or minimal, 
        value from a contract proposal exceeding the minimum technical 
        or performance requirements set forth in the request for 
        proposal;
            (3) the proposed technical approaches will require no, or 
        minimal, subjective judgment by the source selection authority 
        as to the desirability of one offeror's proposal versus a 
        competing proposal;
            (4) the source selection authority has a high degree of 
        confidence that a review of technical proposals of offerors 
        other than the lowest bidder would not result in the 
        identification of factors that could provide value or benefit to 
        the Department;

[[Page 130 STAT. 2271]]

            (5) the contracting officer has included a justification for 
        the use of a lowest price technically acceptable evaluation 
        methodology in the contract file; and
            (6) the Department of Defense has determined that the lowest 
        price reflects full life-cycle costs, including for operations 
        and support.

    (c) Avoidance of Use of Lowest Price Technically Acceptable Source 
Selection Criteria in Certain Procurements.--To the maximum extent 
practicable, the use of lowest price technically acceptable source 
selection criteria shall be avoided in the case of a procurement that is 
predominately for the acquisition of--
            (1) information technology services, cybersecurity services, 
        systems engineering and technical assistance services, advanced 
        electronic testing, audit or audit readiness services, or other 
        knowledge-based professional services;
            (2) personal protective equipment; or
            (3) knowledge-based training or logistics services in 
        contingency operations or other operations outside the United 
        States, including in Afghanistan or Iraq.

    (d) Reporting.--Not later than December 1, 2017, and annually 
thereafter for three years, the Comptroller General of the United States 
shall submit to the congressional defense committees a report on the 
number of instances in which lowest price technically acceptable source 
selection criteria is used for a contract exceeding $10,000,000, 
including an explanation of how the situations listed in subsection (b) 
were considered in making a determination to use lowest price 
technically acceptable source selection criteria.

    (a) Limitation.--Not later than 90 days after the date of the 
enactment of this Act, the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation 
Supplement shall be revised--
            (1) to prohibit the use by the Department of Defense of 
        reverse auctions or lowest price technically acceptable 
        contracting methods for the procurement of personal protective 
        equipment if the level of quality or failure of the item could 
        result in combat casualties; and

        contracting methods for the procurement of such equipment.

[[Page 130 STAT. 2286]]

        contract line item and regardless of whether the appropriation 
        for such contract line item has closed; and

contracts between the Department of Defense and a defense contractor, 
each one of which--

        under the terms and conditions of the contract; and

                    (A) the records have been destroyed or lost; or
                    (B) the records are available but the Secretary of

                to determine the exact amount owed to the United States 
                Government or amount owed to the contractor is 
                disproportionate to the amount at issue.

    (c) Negotiated Settlement Authority.--Any contract or group of 
contracts covered by this section may be closed out through a negotiated 
settlement with the contractor.

        shall notify the congressional defense committees not later than

        or regulation waived.

certifying, or payment official, or any contracting officer, for any 
adjustments or closeout made pursuant to the authority under this 
section.

regulations for the administration of the authority under this section.
SEC. 837. CLOSEOUT OF OLD DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY CONTRACTS.

    (a) Authority.--The Secretary of the Navy may close out contracts

modifications to such contracts without completing further 
reconciliation audits or corrective actions other than those described 
in this section. To accomplish closeout of such contracts--

        in other contract line items within a contract regardless of the 
        year or type of appropriation obligated to fund each contract 
        line item and regardless of whether the appropriation for such 
        contract line item has closed; and

[[Page 130 STAT. 2287]]

        appropriation obligated to fund each contract and regardless of 
        whether the appropriation has closed.

    (b) Contracts Covered.--The contracts covered by this section are a 
group of contracts that are with one contractor and identified by the 
Secretary, each one of which is a contract--
            (1) to design, construct, repair, or support the 
        construction or repair of Navy submarines that--
                    (A) was entered into between fiscal years 1974 and 
                1998; and
                    (B) has no further supply or services deliverables 
                due under the terms and conditions of the contract;
            (2) with respect to which the Secretary of the Navy has 
        established the total final contract value; and
            (3) with respect to which the Secretary of the Navy has 
        determined that the final allowable cost may have a negative or 
        positive unliquidated obligation balance for which it would be 
        difficult to determine the year or type of appropriation 
        because--
                    (A) the records for the contract have been destroyed 
                or lost; or
                    (B) the records for the contract are available but 
                the contracting officer, in collaboration with the 
                certifying official, has determined that a discrepancy 
                is of such a minimal value that the time and effort 
                required to determine the cause of an out-of-balance 
                condition is disproportionate to the amount of the 
                discrepancy.

    (c) Closeout Terms.--The contracts described in subsection (b) may 
be closed out--
            (1) upon receipt of $581,803 from the contractor to be 
        deposited into the Treasury as miscellaneous receipts;
            (2) without seeking further amounts from the contractor; and

        waive any provision of acquisition law or regulation to carry 
        out the authority under subsection (a).

        shall notify the congressional defense committees not later than 
        10 days after exercising the authority under paragraph (1). The 
        notice shall include an identification of each provision of law 
        or regulation waived.

    (e) Adjustment and Closure of Records.--After closeout of any 
contract described in subsection (b) using the authority under this 
section, the payment or accounting offices concerned may adjust and 
close any open finance and accounting records relating to the contract.

        available to the Department of Defense in this division for 
        fiscal year 2017 between any such authorizations for that fiscal 
        year (or any subdivisions thereof). Amounts of authorizations so 
        transferred shall be merged with and be available for the same 
        purposes as the authorization to which transferred.
            (2) Limitation.--Except as provided in paragraph (3), the 
        total amount of authorizations that the Secretary may transfer 
        under the authority of this section may not exceed 
        $4,500,000,000.
            (3) Exception for transfers between military personnel 
        authorizations.--A transfer of funds between military personnel 
        authorizations under title IV shall not be counted toward the 
        dollar limitation in paragraph (2).

    (b) Limitations.--The authority provided by subsection (a) to 
transfer authorizations--
            (1) may only be used to provide authority for items that 
        have a higher priority than the items from which authority is 
        transferred; and
            (2) may not be used to provide authority for an item that 
        has been denied authorization by Congress.

    (c) Effect on Authorization Amounts.--A transfer made from one 
account to another under the authority of this section shall be deemed 
to increase the amount authorized for the account to which the amount is 
transferred by an amount equal to the amount transferred.
    (d) Notice to Congress.--The Secretary shall promptly notify 
Congress of each transfer made under subsection (a).
SEC. 1002. REPORT ON AUDITABLE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.

the Secretary of Defense shall submit to the congressional

[[Page 130 STAT. 2380]]

defense committees a report ranking all military departments and Defense 
Agencies in order of how advanced they are in achieving auditable 
financial statements as required by law. The report should not include 
information otherwise available in other reports to Congress.

committees a report on the capabilities procured pursuant to subsection

auditing a financial statement of the Department of Defense.
SEC. 1004. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON SEQUESTRATION.

    It is the sense of the Congress that--
            (1) the fiscal challenges of the Federal Government are a 
        top priority for Congress, and sequestration--non-strategic, 
        across-the-board budget cuts--remains an unreasonable and 
        inadequate budgeting tool to address the deficits and debt of 
        the Federal Government;
            (2) budget caps imposed by the Budget Control Act of 2011 
        (Public Law 112-25) impose unacceptable limitations on the 
        budget and increase risk to the national security of the United 
        States; and
            (3) the budget caps imposed by the Budget Control Act of 
        2011 must be modified or eliminated through a bipartisan 
        legislative agreement.

the Fund pursuant to section 1705(d)(2) of title 10, United States Code, 
$475,000,000 to the Secretary of the Treasury for deposit in the general 
fund of the Treasury.
    (b) Additional Authority.--The transfer authority provided by this 
section is in addition to any other transfer authority contained in this 
Act.

SEC. 1088. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING CONNECTICUT'S SUBMARINE 
                          CENTURY.

    (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) On March 2, 1867, Congress enacted a naval 
        appropriations Act that authorized the Secretary of the Navy to 
        ``receive and accept a deed of gift, when offered by the State 
        of Connecticut, of a tract of land with not less than one mile 
        of shore front on the Thames River near New London, Connecticut, 
        to be held by the United States for naval purposes''.
            (2) The people of Connecticut and the towns and cities in 
        the southeastern region of Connecticut subsequently gifted land 
        to establish a military installation to fulfil the Nation's need 
        for a naval facility on the Atlantic coast.
            (3) On April 11, 1868, the Navy accepted the deed of gift of 
        land from Connecticut to establish a naval yard and storage 
        depot along the eastern shore of the Thames River in Groton, 
        Connecticut.
            (4) Between 1868 and 1912, the New London Navy Yard 
        supported a diverse range of missions, including berthing 
        inactive Civil War era ironclad warships and serving as a 
        coaling station for refueling naval ships traveling in New 
        England waters.
            (5) Congress rejected the Navy's proposal to close New 
        London Navy Yard in 1912, following an impassioned effort by 
        Congressman Edwin W. Higgins, who stated that ``this action 
        proposed is not only unjust but unreasonable and unsound as a 
        military proposition''.
            (6) The outbreak of World War I and the enemy use of 
        submarines to sink allied military and civilian ships in the 
        Atlantic sparked a new focus on developing submarine 
        capabilities in the United States.
            (7) October 18, 1915, marked the arrival at the New London 
        Navy Yard of the submarines G-1, G-2, and G-4 under the care of 
        the tender USS Ozark and the arrival of submarines E-1, D-1, and 
        D-3 under the care of the tender USS Tonopah. November 1, 1915, 
        marked the arrival of the first ship built as a submarine 
        tender, the USS Fulton (AS-1).
            (8) On June 21, 1916, Commander Yeates Stirling assumed the 
        command of the newly designated Naval Submarine Base New London, 
        the New London Submarine Flotilla, and the Submarine School.
            (9) In the 100 years since the arrival of the first 
        submarines to the base, Naval Submarine Base New London has 
        grown to occupy more than 680 acres along the east side of the 
        Thames River, with more than 160 major facilities, 15 nuclear 
        submarines, and more than 70 tenant commands and activities, 
        including the Submarine Learning Center, Naval Submarine School, 
        the Naval Submarine Medical Research Laboratory,

[[Page 130 STAT. 2427]]

        the Naval Undersea Medical Institute, and the newly established 
        Undersea Warfighting Development Center.
            (10) In addition to being the site of the first submarine 
        base in the United States, Connecticut was home to the foremost 
        submarine manufacturers of the time, the Lake Torpedo Boat 
        Company in Bridgeport and the Electric Boat Company in Groton, 
        which later became General Dynamics Electric Boat.
            (11) General Dynamics Electric Boat, its talented workforce, 
        and its Connecticut-based and nationwide network of suppliers 
        have delivered more than 200 submarines from its current 
        location in Groton, Connecticut, including the first nuclear-
        powered submarine, the USS Nautilus (SSN 571), and nearly half 
        of the nuclear submarines ever built by the United States.
            (12) The Submarine Force Museum, located adjacent to Naval 
        Submarine Base New London in Groton, Connecticut, is the only 
        submarine museum operated by the United States Navy and today 
        serves as the primary repository for artifacts, documents, and 
        photographs relating to the bold and courageous history of the 
        Submarine Force and highlights as its core exhibit the Historic 
        Ship Nautilus (SSN 571) following her retirement from service.
            (13) Reflecting the close ties between Connecticut and the 
        Navy that began with the gift of land that established the base, 
        the State of Connecticut has set aside $40,000,000 in funding 
        for critical infrastructure investments to support the mission 
        of the base, including construction of a new dive locker 
        building, expansion of the Submarine Learning Center, and 
        modernization of energy infrastructure.
            (14) On September 29, 2015, Connecticut Governor Dannel 
        Malloy designated October 2015 through October 2016 as 
        Connecticut's Submarine Century, a year-long observance that 
        celebrates 100 years of submarine activity in Connecticut, 
        including the Town of Groton's distinction as the Submarine 
        Capital of the World, to coincide with the centennial 
        anniversary of the establishment of Naval Submarine Base New 
        London and the Naval Submarine School.
            (15) Whereas Naval Submarine Base New London still proudly 
        proclaims its motto of ``The First and Finest''.
            (16) Congressman Higgins' statement before Congress in 1912 
        that ``Connecticut stands ready, as she always has, to bear her 
        part of the burdens of the national defense'' remains true 
        today.

    (b) Sense of Congress.--Congress--
            (1) commends the longstanding dedication and contribution to 
        the Navy and submarine force by the people of Connecticut, both 
        through the initial deed of gift that established what would 
        become Naval Submarine Base New London and through their ongoing 
        commitment to support the mission of the base and the Navy 
        personnel assigned to it;
            (2) honors the submariners who have trained and served at 
        Naval Submarine Base New London throughout its history in 
        support of the Nation's security and undersea superiority;
            (3) recognizes the contribution of the industry and 
        workforce of Connecticut in designing, building, and sustaining 
        the Navy's submarine fleet; and

[[Page 130 STAT. 2428]]

            (4) encourages the recognition of Connecticut's Submarine 
        Century by Congress, the Navy, and the American people by 
        honoring the contribution of the people of Connecticut to the 
        defense of the United States and the important role of the 
        submarine force in safeguarding the security of the United 
        States for more than a century.
SEC. 1089. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING THE REPORTING OF THE MV-22 
                          MISHAP IN MARANA, ARIZONA, ON APRIL 8, 
                          2000.

    It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) in the report accompanying H.R. 1735 of the 114th 
        Congress (House Report 114-102), the Committee on Armed Services 
        of the House of Representatives encouraged the Secretary of 
        Defense to ``publicly clarify the causes of the MV-22 mishap at 
        Marana Northwest Regional Airport, Arizona, in a way consistent 
        with the results of all investigations as soon as possible'';
            (2) the Deputy Secretary of Defense Robert O. Work did an 
        excellent job reviewing the investigations of such mishap and 
        concluded that there was a misrepresentation of facts by the 
        media which incorrectly identified pilot error as the cause of 
        the mishap which the Deputy Secretary publicly made known in 
        March 2016; and
            (3) Congress is grateful for the successful conclusion to 
        this tragic situation.
SEC. 1090. COST OF WARS.

    The Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the Commissioner of

the benefits derived from outside the continental United States (OCONUS) 
locations that--
            (1) support day-to-day air refueling operations, combatant 
        commander operations plans, and flexibility for contingency ops, 
        and have--
                    (A) a strategic location that is essential to the 
                defense of the United States and its interests;
                    (B) receivers for boom or probe-and-drogue training 
                opportunities with joint and international partners; and

                and capacity to meet requirements; and
            (2) possess facilities that--
                    (A) take full advantage of existing infrastructure 
                to provide--
                          (i) runway, hangars, and aircrew and 
                      maintenance operations; and
                          (ii) sufficient fuels receipt, storage, and 
                      distribution for 5-day peacetime operating stock; 
                      and
                    (B) minimize overall construction and operational 
                costs.

    (a) Short Title.--This section may be cited as the ``Administrative 
Leave Act of 2016''.
    (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--

[[Page 130 STAT. 2461]]

            (1) agency use of administrative leave, and leave that is 
        referred to incorrectly as administrative leave in agency 
        recording practices, has exceeded reasonable amounts--
                    (A) in contravention of--
                          (i) established precedent of the Comptroller 
                      General of the United States; and
                          (ii) guidance provided by the Office of 
                      Personnel Management; and
                    (B) resulting in significant cost to the Federal 
                Government;
            (2) administrative leave should be used sparingly;
            (3) prior to the use of paid leave to address personnel 
        issues, an agency should consider other actions, including--
                    (A) temporary reassignment; and
                    (B) transfer;
            (4) an agency should prioritize and expeditiously conclude 
        an investigation in which an employee is placed in 
        administrative leave so that, not later than the conclusion of 
        the leave period--
                    (A) the employee is returned to duty status; or
                    (B) an appropriate personnel action is taken with 
                respect to the employee;
            (5) data show that there are too many examples of employees 
        placed in administrative leave for 6 months or longer, leaving 
        the employees without any available recourse to--
                    (A) return to duty status; or
                    (B) challenge the decision of the agency;
            (6) an agency should ensure accurate and consistent 
        recording of the use of administrative leave so that 
        administrative leave can be managed and overseen effectively; 
        and
            (7) other forms of excused absence authorized by law should 
        be recorded separately from administrative leave, as defined by 
        the amendments made by this section.

        authorized to be appropriated or otherwise made available by 
        this Act or any other Act for fiscal year 2017 may be used to

            (2) Requirements described.--The requirements described in 
        this paragraph are the following:
                    (A) The Director of National Intelligence and the 
                Director of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency 
                jointly submit to the appropriate congressional 
                committees a report on the following:
                          (i) Whether it is possible, consistent with 
                      United States national security interests, to 
                      provide enhanced access to United States 
                      commercial imagery or other United States 
                      capabilities, consistent with the protection of 
                      sources and methods and United States national 
                      security, to covered state parties that is 
                      qualitatively similar to that derived by 
                      observation flights over the territory of the 
                      United States or over the territory of a covered 
                      state party under the Open Skies Treaty, on a more 
                      timely basis.
                          (ii) What the cost would be to provide 
                      enhanced access to such commercial imagery or 
                      other capabilities as compared to the current 
                      imagery sharing through the Treaty.
                          (iii) Whether any new agreements would be 
                      needed to provide enhanced access to such 
                      commercial imagery or other capabilities and what 
                      would be required to obtain such agreements.
                          (iv) Whether transitioning to such commercial 
                      imagery or other capabilities from the current 
                      imagery sharing through the Treaty would reduce 
                      opportunities by the Russian Federation to exceed 
                      imagery limits and reduce utility for Russian 
                      intelligence collection against the United States 
                      or covered state parties.
                          (v) How such commercial imagery or other 
                      capabilities would compare to the current imagery 
                      sharing through the Treaty.
                    (B) The Secretary of State, in consultation with the 
                Director of the National Geospatial Intelligence Agency 
                and the Secretary of Defense, submits to the appropriate 
                congressional committees a report that--
                          (i) details the costs for implementation of 
                      the Open Skies Treaty, including--
                                    (I) mitigation costs relating to 
                                national security; and
                                    (II) aircraft, sensors, and related 
                                overhead and implementation costs for 
                                covered state parties; and
                          (ii) describes the impact on contributions and 
                      participation by covered state parties and 
                      relationships among covered state parties in the 
                      context of the Open Skies Treaty, the North 
                      Atlantic Treaty Organization, and any other venues

        and serious counterspace capabilities of potential foreign 
        adversaries, and the space advantages of the United States must 
        be protected.
            (3) The Department of Defense has recognized the threat and 
        has taken initial steps necessary to defend space, however the 
        organization and management may not be strategically postured to 
        fully address this changed domain of operations over the long 
        term.
            (4) The defense of space is currently a priority for the 
        leaders of the Department, however the space mission is managed 
        within competing priorities of each of the Armed Forces.
            (5) Space elements provide critical capabilities to all of 
        the Armed Forces in the joint fight, however the disparate 
        activities throughout the Department have no single leader that 
        is empowered to make decisions affecting the space forces of the 
        Department.

            (1) unifying, integrating, and de-conflicting activities to 
        provide for stronger prioritization, accountability, coherency, 
        focus, strategy, and integration of the joint space program of 
        the Department;
            (2) streamlining decision-making, limiting unnecessary 
        bureaucracy, and empowering the appropriate level of authority, 
        while enabling effective oversight;
            (3) maintaining the involvement of each of the Armed Forces 
        and adapting the culture and improving the capabilities of the 
        workforce to ensure the workforce has the appropriate training, 
        experience, and tools to accomplish the mission; and
            (4) reviewing authorities and preparing for a conflict that 
        could extend to space.

SEC. 1671. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON NUCLEAR DETERRENCE.

    It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) the nuclear forces of the United States continue to play 
        a fundamental role in deterring aggression against the interests 
        of the United States and the allies of the United States in an 
        increasingly dangerous world in which foreign adversaries, 
        including the Russian Federation, are making explicit nuclear 
        threats against the United States and such allies;
            (2) strong United States nuclear forces assure the allies of 
        the United States that the extended deterrence guarantees of the 
        United States are credible and that the resolve of the United 
        States remains strong even in the face of nuclear provocations, 
        including nuclear coercion and blackmail;
            (3) the prevention of war through effective deterrence 
        requires survivable and flexible nuclear forces that are well 
        exercised and ready to respond to nuclear escalation if 
        necessary;

[[Page 130 STAT. 2622]]

            (4) possessing a range of capabilities and options to 
        counter nuclear threats assures the allies of the United States 
        and enhances the credibility of United States nuclear deterrence 
        by reinforcing the resolve of the United States in the minds of 
        such allies and potential adversaries;
            (5) the declared policy of the United States with respect to 
        the use of nuclear weapons must be coordinated and communicate 
        clearly that the use of nuclear weapons against the United 
        States or its vital interests would ultimately fail and subject 
        the aggressor to incalculable consequences;
            (6) in support of a strong and credible nuclear deterrent, 
        the United States must--
                    (A) maintain a nuclear force with a diverse, 
                flexible range of nuclear yield and delivery modes that 
                are ready, capable, and credible;
                    (B) afford the highest priority to the modernization 
                of the nuclear triad, dual-capable aircraft, and related 
                command and control elements; and
                    (C) ensure the broadest participation of allies of 
                the United States in nuclear defense planning, training, 
                and exercises to demonstrate the commitment of the 
                United States and such allies and their solidarity 
                against nuclear threats and coercion; and
            (7) with respect to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization 
        (NATO)--
                    (A) NATO has made it clear at the NATO summit in 
                Warsaw, Poland, in July 2018, that--
                          (i) ``the fundamental purpose of NATO's 
                      nuclear capability is to preserve peace, prevent 
                      coercion, and deter aggression''; and
                          (ii) ``Nuclear weapons are unique. Any 
                      employment of nuclear weapons against NATO would 
                      fundamentally alter the nature of a conflict. The 
                      circumstances in which NATO might have to use 
                      nuclear weapons are extremely remote. If the 
                      fundamental security of any of its members were to 
                      be threatened however, NATO has the capabilities 
                      and resolve to impose costs on an adversary that 
                      would be unacceptable and far outweigh the 
                      benefits that an adversary could hope to 
                      achieve.''; and
                    (B) accordingly, effective deterrence requires that 
                NATO conduct realistic nuclear planning and exercises, 
                and modernize the full suite of dual-capable aircraft 
                and associated command and control networks and 
                facilities.
SEC. 1672. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON IMPORTANCE OF INDEPENDENT NUCLEAR 
                          DETERRENT OF UNITED KINGDOM.

    It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) the United States believes that the independent nuclear 
        deterrent and decision-making of the United Kingdom provides a 
        crucial contribution to international stability, the North 
        Atlantic Treaty Organization alliance, and the national security 
        of the United States;
            (2) nuclear deterrence is and will continue to be the 
        highest priority mission of the Department of Defense and the 
        United States benefits when the closest ally of the United 
        States clearly and unequivocally sets similar priorities;

[[Page 130 STAT. 2623]]

            (3) the United States sees the nuclear deterrent of the 
        United Kingdom as central to trans-Atlantic security and to the 
        commitment of the United Kingdom to NATO to spend two percent of 
        gross domestic product on defense;
            (4) the commitment of the United Kingdom to maintain a 
        continuous at-sea deterrence posture today and in the future 
        complements the deterrent capabilities of the United States and 
        provides a credible ``second center of decision making'' which 
        ensures potential attackers cannot discount the solidarity of 
        the mutual relationship of the United States and the United 
        Kingdom;
            (5) the United States Navy must execute the Ohio-class 
        replacement submarine program on time and within budget, seeking 
        efficiencies and cost savings wherever possible, to ensure that 
        the program delivers a Common Missile Compartment, the Trident 
        II (D5) Strategic Weapon System, and associated equipment and 
        production capabilities, that support the successful development 
        and deployment of the Dreadnought submarines of the United 
        Kingdom; and
            (6) the close technical collaboration, especially expert 
        mutual scientific peer review, provides valuable resilience and 
        cost effectiveness to the respective deterrence programs of the 
        United States and the United Kingdom.

    Section 15(a) of the Small Business Act (15 U.S.C. 644(a)) is 
amended to read as follows:
    ``(a) Small Business Procurements.--
            ``(1) In general.--For purposes of this Act, small business 
        concerns shall receive any award or contract if such award or 
        contract is, in the determination of the Administrator and the 
        contracting agency, in the interest of--
                    ``(A) maintaining or mobilizing the full productive 
                capacity of the United States;
                    ``(B) war or national defense programs; or
                    ``(C) assuring that a fair proportion of the total 
                purchase and contracts for goods and services of the 
                Government in each industry category (as defined under 
                paragraph (2)) are awarded to small business concerns.
            ``(2) Industry category defined.--
                    ``(A) In general.--In this subsection, the term 
                `industry category' means a discrete group of similar 
                goods and services, as determined by the Administrator 
                in accordance with the North American Industry 
                Classification System codes used to establish small 
                business size standards, except that the Administrator 
                shall limit an industry category to a greater extent 
                than provided under the North American Industry 
                Classification System codes if the Administrator 
                receives evidence indicating that further segmentation 
                of the industry category is warranted--
                          ``(i) due to special capital equipment needs;
                          ``(ii) due to special labor requirements;

                    ``(B) Exception for geographic requirements.--The 
                Administrator may not further segment an industry 
                category based on geographic requirements unless--
                          ``(i) the Government typically designates the 
                      geographic area where work for contracts for goods

                      portion of the entire domestic market for such 
                      goods or services; and

                      competition from business concerns located outside 
                      of the general geographic area due to the fixed 
                      location of facilities, high mobilization costs, 
                      or similar economic factors.
            ``(3) Determinations with respect to awards or contracts.--
        Determinations made pursuant to paragraph (1) may be made for 
        individual awards or contracts, any part of an award or contract 
        or task order, or for classes of awards or contracts or task 
        orders.

        business concerns.--

                supplied or performed by a small business concern and, 
                as determined by the Administrator--

                      dollar value which makes the participation of a

                      unlikely;

                representatives.--With respect to proposed procurements 
                described in subparagraph (A), at least 30 days before 
                issuing a solicitation and concurrent with other 
                processing steps required before issuing the 
                solicitation, the contracting agency shall provide a 
                copy of the proposed procurement to the procurement 
                center representative of the contracting agency (as 
                described in subsection (l)) along with a statement

                      quantities less than the total requirement;

                      encourage the participation of small business 
                      concerns in a manner consistent with the actual 
                      requirements of the Government;

                opportunities for small business concerns.--If the 
                procurement center representative believes that the 
                proposed procurement will make the participation of 
                small business concerns as prime contractors unlikely, 
                the procurement center representative, within 15 days 
                after receiving the statement described in subparagraph 
                (B), shall recommend to the contracting agency 
                alternative procurement methods for increasing prime 
                contracting opportunities for small business concerns.

                the contracting agency fail to agree on an alternative 
                procurement method, the Administrator shall submit the 
                matter to the head of the appropriate department or 
                agency for a determination.
            ``(5) Contracts for sale of government property.--With 
        respect to a contract for the sale of Government property, small 
        business concerns shall receive any such contract if, in the 
        determination of the Administrator and the disposal agency, the 
        award of such contract is in the interest of assuring that a 
        fair proportion of the total sales of Government property be 
        made to small business concerns.
            ``(6) Sale of electrical power or other property.--Nothing 
        in this subsection shall be construed to change any preferences 
        or priorities established by law with respect to the sale of 
        electrical power or other property by the Federal Government.
            ``(7) Costs exceeding fair market price.--A contract may not 
        be awarded under this subsection if the cost of the contract to 
        the awarding agency exceeds a fair market price.''.

            (2) Contents.--The report required under paragraph (1) shall 
        include the following information:
                    (A) A description of the real property controlled by 
                the Navy on Guam which the Navy has transferred to the

                determine the total number of acres of real property 
                that the Navy will transfer or has transferred to the

that the relocation of Marines to Guam occurring during 2011 will not 
cause the total number of acres of real property controlled by the Navy

        allowances shall be applicable to pay and allowances accruing on 
        and after the date on which the sentence takes effect. Any 
        forfeiture of pay or allowances or reduction in grade that is

        be excluded in computing the service of the term of confinement.

        court-martial extends to death, that part of the sentence 
        providing for death may not be executed until approved by the 
        President. In such a case, the President may commute, remit, or 
        suspend the sentence, or any part thereof, as the President sees 
        fit. That part of the sentence providing for death may not be 
        suspended.

        commissioned officer, cadet, or midshipman, the sentence of a 
        court-martial extends to dismissal, that part of the sentence 
        providing for dismissal may not be executed until approved by 
        the Secretary concerned or such Under Secretary or Assistant 
        Secretary as may be designated by the Secretary concerned. In

        Secretary, as the case may be, may commute, remit, or suspend 
        the sentence, or any part of the sentence, as the Secretary sees

        person so reduced may be required to serve for the duration of 
        the war or emergency and six months thereafter.

        assigned, may, in his or her sole discretion, defer the 
        effective date of a sentence of confinement, reduction, or 
        forfeiture. The deferment shall terminate upon entry of judgment 
        or, in the case of a summary court-martial, when the convening 
        authority acts on the sentence. The deferment may be rescinded 
        at any time by the officer who granted it or, if the accused is 
        no longer under his jurisdiction, by the officer exercising 
        general court-martial jurisdiction over the command to which the 
        accused is currently assigned.

        convening authority may defer the service of the sentence to 
        confinement, without the consent of that person, until after the

        includes the District of Columbia and any Commonwealth, 
        territory, or possession of the United States.
            ``(5) Deferral while review pending.--In any case in which a 
        court-martial sentences a person to confinement, but in which 
        review of the case under section 867(a)(2) of this title 
        (article 67(a)(2)) is pending, the Secretary concerned may defer
