Secretary of State

    By virtue of the authority vested in me as Secretary of State, 
including the authority of section 4 of the State Department Basic 
Authorities Act, as amended (22 U.S.C. 2651a), I hereby delegate to the 
Deputy Secretary, to the extent authorized by law, all authorities and 
functions vested in the Secretary of State or the head of agency by any 
act, order, determination, delegation of authority, regulation, or 
executive order, now or hereafter issued. This delegation includes all 
authorities and functions that have been or may be delegated or 
redelegated to other Department officials but does not repeal 
delegations to such officials.
    Notwithstanding this delegation of authority, the Secretary of 
State may exercise any function or authority delegated by this 
delegation. The Deputy Secretary may, to the extent consistent with 
law, (1) redelegate such functions and authorities and authorize their 
successive redelegation, and (2) promulgate such rules and regulations 
as may be necessary to carry out such functions.
