any rule, regulation, or policy directive prescribed under any provision of law described in clauses (i) through (iv).
The scope of grievances described in paragraph (1) may be modified by written agreement between the Department and the labor organization accorded recognition as the exclusive representative under subchapter X of this chapter (hereinafter in this subchapter referred to as the “exclusive representative”).
For purposes of this subchapter, the term “grievance” does not include—
an individual assignment of a member under subchapter V of this chapter, other than an assignment alleged to be contrary to law or regulation;
the judgment of a selection board established under section 4002 of this title, a tenure board established under section 3946
(b) of this title, or any other equivalent body established by laws or regulations which similarly evaluates the performance of members of the Service on a comparative basis;
the expiration of a limited appointment, the termination of a limited appointment under section 4011 of this title, or the denial of a limited career extension or of a renewal of a limited career extension under section 4007

Nothing in this subsection shall exclude any act, omission, or condition alleged to violate any law, rule, regulation, or policy directive referred to in subsection (a)(1)(H) of this section from such term.
This subchapter applies only with respect to the Department of State, Broadcasting [1]
Board of Governors, the Agency for International Development, the Department of Agriculture, and the Department of Commerce.
So in original. Probably should be “the Broadcasting”.
