     SEC. 565. CONSOLIDATION OF FINANCIAL LITERACY PROGRAMS AND 
                   TRAINING FOR MEMBERS OF THE ARMED FORCES.

       (a) Plan Required.--Not later than one year after the date 
     of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense shall 
     submit to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and 
     the House of Representatives a report setting forth a plan 
     for the consolidation of the current financial literacy 
     training programs of the Department of Defense and the 
     military departments for members of the Armed Forces into a 
     single program of financial literacy training for members 
     that--
       (1) eliminates duplication and costs in the provision of

     Secretaries of the military departments shall commence 
     implementation of the plan required by subsection (a) 90 days
