255. VETERANS' PREFERENCE (SECTION 610 REVIEW)

Legal Authority: 5 USC 1302

Abstract: The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is issuing final 
regulations to implement a change to the definition of ``active duty'' 
contained in section 211.102(f) of title 5, Code of Federal 
Regulations. We are making this change in response to a Merit System 
Protection Board (MSPB) decision that affects eligibility for veterans' 
preference based on a service-connected disability. This action will 
conform OPM's regulations with MSPB's decision.
