agency funded under this Act resulting from, or to pre-
vent, personnel actions taken in response to funding re-
ductions included in this Act shall be absorbed within the 
total budgetary resources available to such department or 
agency: Provided, That the authority to transfer funds be-
tween appropriations accounts as may be necessary to 
carry out this section is provided in addition to authorities 
included elsewhere in this Act: Provided further, That use 
of funds to carry out this section shall be treated as a 
reprogramming of funds under section 505 of this Act and 
shall not be available for obligation or expenditure except 
in compliance with the procedures set forth in that section. 
SEC. 509. None of the funds provided by this Act

Act may be used to pay the salaries and expenses of per-
sonnel of the Department of Justice to obligate more than 
$720,000,000 during fiscal year 2013 from the fund es-

SEC. 514. (a) Tracing studies conducted by the Bu-

leased without adequate disclaimers regarding the limita-
tions of the data. 
(b) For fiscal year 2013 and thereafter, the Bureau 
of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives shall include 
in all such data releases, language similar to the following 
that would make clear that trace data cannot be used to 
draw broad conclusions about firearms-related crime: 
(1) Firearm traces are designed to assist law 
enforcement authorities in conducting investigations 
by tracking the sale and possession of specific fire-
arms. Law enforcement agencies may request fire-
arms traces for any reason, and those reasons are 
not necessarily reported to the Federal Government. 
Not all firearms used in crime are traced and not all 
firearms traced are used in crime. 
(2) Firearms selected for tracing are not chosen 
for purposes of determining which types, makes, or 
models of firearms are used for illicit purposes. The 
firearms selected do not constitute a random sample 
and should not be considered representative of the 
larger universe of all firearms used by criminals, or 
any subset of that universe. Firearms are normally 
traced to the first retail seller, and sources reported 
for firearms traced do not necessarily represent the 
sources or methods by which firearms in general are 
acquired for use in crime. 
SEC. 515. (a) The Inspectors General of the Depart-
ment of Commerce, the Department of Justice, the Na-
tional Aeronautics and Space Administration, the Na-
tional Science Foundation, and the Legal Services Cor-
poration shall conduct audits, pursuant to the Inspector 
General Act (5 U.S.C. App.), of grants or contracts for 
which funds are appropriated by this Act, and shall submit 
reports to Congress on the progress of such audits, which 
may include preliminary findings and a description of 
areas of particular interest, within 180 days after initi-
ating such an audit and every 180 days thereafter until 
any such audit is completed. 
(b) Within 60 days after the date on which an audit 
described in subsection (a) by an Inspector General is 
completed, the Secretary, Attorney General, Adminis-
trator, Director, or President, as appropriate, shall make 
the results of the audit available to the public on the Inter-
net website maintained by the Department, Administra-
tion, Foundation, or Corporation, respectively. The results 
shall be made available in redacted form to exclude— 
(1) any matter described in section 552(b) of 
title 5, United States Code; and 
(2) sensitive personal information for any indi-
vidual, the public access to which could be used to 
commit identity theft or for other inappropriate or 
unlawful purposes. 
(c) A grant or contract funded by amounts appro-
priated by this Act may not be used for the purpose of 
defraying the costs of a banquet or conference that is not 
directly and programmatically related to the purpose for 
which the grant or contract was awarded, such as a ban-
quet or conference held in connection with planning, train-
ing, assessment, review, or other routine purposes related 
to a project funded by the grant or contract.
(d) Any person awarded a grant or contract funded 
by amounts appropriated by this Act shall submit a state-
ment to the Secretary of Commerce, the Attorney General, 
the Administrator, Director, or President, as appropriate, 
certifying that no funds derived from the grant or contract 
will be made available through a subcontract or in any 
other manner to another person who has a financial inter-
est in the person awarded the grant or contract. 
(e) The provisions of the preceding subsections of this 
section shall take effect 30 days after the date on which 
the Director of the Office of Management and Budget, in 
consultation with the Director of the Office of Government 
Ethics, determines that a uniform set of rules and require-
ments, substantially similar to the requirements in such 
subsections, consistently apply under the executive branch 
ethics program to all Federal departments, agencies, and 
entities. 
SEC. 516. (a) None of the funds appropriated or oth-
erwise made available under this Act may be used by the 
Departments of Commerce and Justice, the National Aer-
onautics and Space Administration, or the National 
Science Foundation to acquire an information technology 
system unless the head of the entity involved, in consulta-
tion with the Federal Bureau of Investigation or other ap-
propriate Federal entity, has made an assessment of any
associated risk of cyber-espionage or sabotage associated 
with the acquisition of such system, including any risk as-
sociated with such system being produced, manufactured 
or assembled by one or more entities that are owned, di-
rected or subsidized by the People’s Republic of China. 
(b) None of the funds appropriated or otherwise 
made available under this Act may be used to acquire an 
information technology system described in an assessment 
required by subsection (a) and produced, manufactured or 
assembled by one or more entities that are owned, directed 
or subsidized by the People’s Republic of China unless the 
head of the assessing entity described in subsection (a) 
determines, and reports that determination to the Com-
mittees on Appropriations of the House of Representatives 
and the Senate, that the acquisition of such system is in 
the national interest of the United States. 
SEC. 517. None of the funds made available in this 
Act shall be used in any way whatsoever to support or 
justify the use of torture by any official or contract em-
ployee of the United States Government. 
SEC. 518. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision 
of law or treaty, in the current fiscal year and any fiscal 
year thereafter, none of the funds appropriated or other-
wise made available under this Act or any other Act may 
be expended or obligated by a department, agency, or in-
strumentality of the United States to pay administrative 
expenses or to compensate an officer or employee of the 
United States in connection with requiring an export li-
cense for the export to Canada of components, parts, ac-
cessories or attachments for firearms listed in Category 
I, section 121.1 of title 22, Code of Federal Regulations 
(International Trafficking in Arms Regulations (ITAR), 
part 121, as it existed on April 1, 2005) with a total value 
not exceeding $500 wholesale in any transaction, provided 
that the conditions of subsection (b) of this section are 
met by the exporting party for such articles. 
(b) The foregoing exemption from obtaining an ex-
port license— 
(1) does not exempt an exporter from filing any 
Shipper’s Export Declaration or notification letter 
required by law, or from being otherwise eligible 
under the laws of the United States to possess, ship, 
transport, or export the articles enumerated in sub-
section (a); and 
(2) does not permit the export without a license 
of— 
(A) fully automatic firearms and compo-
nents and parts for such firearms, other than 
for end use by the Federal Government, or a 
Provincial or Municipal Government of Canada;

other foreign destination. 
(c) accordance with this section, the District Direc-
tors of Customs and postmasters shall permit the perma-
nent or temporary export without a license of any unclassi-
fied articles specified in subsection (a) to Canada for end 
use in Canada or return to the United States, or tem-
porary import of Canadian-origin items from Canada for 
end use in the United States or return to Canada for a 
Canadian citizen. 
(d) The President may require export licenses under 
this section on a temporary basis if the President deter-
mines, upon publication first in the Federal Register, that 
the Government of Canada has implemented or main-
tained inadequate import controls for the articles specified 
in subsection (a), such that a significant diversion of such 
articles has and continues to take place for use in inter-
national terrorism or in the escalation of a conflict in an-
other nation. The President shall terminate the require-
ments of a license when reasons for the temporary require-
ments have ceased. 
SEC. 519. Notwithstanding any other provision of 
law, in the current fiscal year and any fiscal year there-
after, no department, agency, or instrumentality of the 
United States receiving appropriated funds under this Act 
or any other Act shall obligate or expend in any way such 
funds to pay administrative expenses or the compensation 
of any officer or employee of the United States to deny 
any application submitted pursuant to 22 U.S.C. 
2778(b)(1)(B) and qualified pursuant to 27 CFR section 
478.112 or .113, for a permit to import United States ori-
gin ‘‘curios or relics’’ firearms, parts, or ammunition. 
SEC. 520. None of the funds made available in this

gram manager of a project within the jurisdiction of the

nautics and Space Administration, or the National Science 
Foundation totaling more than $75,000,000 has reason-
able cause to believe that the total program cost has in-
creased by 10 percent, the program manager shall imme-
diately inform the respective Secretary, Administrator, or 
Director. The Secretary, Administrator, or Director shall 
notify the House and Senate Committees on Appropria-
tions within 30 days in writing of such increase, and shall

validating that the project’s management structure is ade-
quate to control total project or procurement costs.
