    SEC. 127. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON AIRCRAFT CARRIER PROCUREMENT
                            SCHEDULES.

        (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
                (1) In the Congressional Budget Office report titled ``An
            Analysis of the Navy's Fiscal Year 2016 Shipbuilding Plan'', the
            Office stated as follows: ``To prevent the carrier force from
            declining to 10 ships in the 2040s, 1 short of its inventory

    [[Page 130 STAT. 2036]]

            goal of 11, the Navy could accelerate purchases after 2018 to 1
            every four years, rather than 1 every five years''.
                (2) In a report submitted to Congress on March 17, 2015, the
            Secretary of the Navy indicated the Department of the Navy has a
            requirement of 11 aircraft carriers.

        (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
                (1) the plan of the Department of the Navy to schedule the
            procurement of one aircraft carrier every five years will reduce
            the overall aircraft carrier inventory to 10 aircraft carriers,
            a level insufficient to meet peacetime and war plan
            requirements; and
                (2) to accommodate the required aircraft carrier force
            structure, the Department of the Navy should--
                        (A) begin to program construction for the next
                    aircraft carrier to be built after the U.S.S. Enterprise
                    (CVN-80) in fiscal year 2022; and
                        (B) program the required advance procurement
                    activities to accommodate the construction of such
                    carrier.

    SEC. 241. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON DEVELOPMENT AND FIELDING OF FIFTH
                            GENERATION AIRBORNE SYSTEMS.

        (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
                (1) The term ``fifth generation'', with respect to airborne
            systems, means those airborne systems capable of operating
            effectively in highly contested battle spaces defined by the
            most capable currently fielded threats, and those reasonably
            expected to be operational in the foreseeable future.
                (2) Continued modernization of Department of Defense
            airborne systems such as fighters, bombers, and intelligence,
            surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) aircraft with fifth
            generation capabilities is required because--

    [[Page 130 STAT. 2071]]

                        (A) adversary integrated air defense systems (IADS)
                    have created regions where fourth generation airborne
                    systems may be limited in their ability to effectively
                    operate;
                        (B) adversary aircraft, air-to-air missiles, and
                    airborne electronic attack or electronic protection
                    systems are advancing beyond the capabilities of fourth
                    generation airborne systems; and
                        (C) fifth generation airborne systems provide a
                    wider variety of options for a given warfighting
                    challenge, preserve the technological advantage of the
                    United States over near-peer threats, and serve as a
                    force multiplier by increasing situational awareness and
                    combat effectiveness of fourth generation airborne
                    systems.

        (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that development
    and fielding of fifth generation airborne system systems should include
    the following:
                (1) Multispectral (radar, infrared, visual, emissions) low
            observable (LO) design features, self-protection jamming, and
            other capabilities that significantly delay or deny threat
            system detection, tracking, and engagement.
                (2) Integrated avionics that autonomously fuse and
            prioritize onboard multispectral sensors and offboard
            information data to provide an accurate realtime operating
            picture and data download for postmission exploitation and
            analysis.
                (3) Resilient communications, navigation, and identification
            techniques designed to effectively counter adversary attempts to
            deny or confuse friendly systems.
                (4) Robust and secure networks linking individual platforms
            to create a common, accurate, and highly integrated picture of
            the battle space for friendly forces.
                (5) Advanced onboard diagnostics capable of monitoring
            system health, accurately reporting system faults, and
            increasing overall system performance and reliability.
                (6) Integrated platform and subsystem designs to maximize
            lethality and survivability while enabling decision superiority.
                (7) Maximum consideration for the fielding of unmanned
            platforms either employed in concert with fifth generation
            manned platforms or as standalone unmanned platforms, to
            increase warfighting effectiveness and reduce risk to personnel
            during high risk missions.
                (8) Advanced air-to-air, air-to-ground, and other weapons
            able to leverage fifth generation capabilities.
                (9) Comprehensive and high-fidelity live, virtual, and
            constructive training systems, updated range infrastructure, and

       Subtitle F--National Commission on Military, National, and Public
                                     Service

    SEC. 551. PURPOSE, SCOPE, AND DEFINITIONS.

        (a) Purpose.--The purpose of this subtitle is to establish the
    National Commission on Military, National, and Public Service to--
                (1) conduct a review of the military selective service
            process (commonly referred to as ``the draft''); and
                (2) consider methods to increase participation in military,
            national, and public service in order to address national
            security and other public service needs of the Nation.

        (b) Scope of Review.--In order to provide the fullest understanding
    of the matters required under the review under subsection (a), the
    Commission shall consider--
                (1) the need for a military selective service process,
            including the continuing need for a mechanism to draft large
            numbers of replacement combat troops;
                (2) means by which to foster a greater attitude and ethos of
            service among United States youth, including an increased
            propensity for military service;
                (3) the feasibility and advisability of modifying the
            military selective service process in order to obtain for
            military, national, and public service individuals with skills
            (such as medical, dental, and nursing skills, language skills,
            cyber skills, and science, technology, engineering, and
            mathematics (STEM) skills) for which the Nation has a critical
            need, without regard to age or sex; and
                (4) the feasibility and advisability of including in the
            military selective service process, as so modified, an
            eligibility or entitlement for the receipt of one or more
            Federal benefits (such as educational benefits, subsidized or
            secured student loans, grants or hiring preferences) specified
            by the Commission for purposes of the review.

        (c) Definitions.--In this subtitle:
                (1) The term ``military service'' means active service (as
            that term is defined in subsection (d)(3) of section 101 of
            title 10, United States Code) in one of the uniformed services
            (as that term is defined in subsection (a)(5) of such section).
                (2) The term ``national service'' means civilian employment
            in Federal or State Government in a field in which the Nation
            and the public have critical needs.
                (3) The term ``public service'' means civilian employment in
            any non-governmental capacity, including with private for-profit
            organizations and non-profit organizations (including with
            appropriate faith-based organizations), that pursues and
            enhances the common good and meets the needs of communities, the
            States, or the Nation in sectors related to security, health,
            care for the elderly, and other areas considered appropriate by
            the Commission for purposes of this subtitle.

    SEC. 552. PRELIMINARY REPORT ON PURPOSE AND UTILITY OF
                            REGISTRATION SYSTEM UNDER MILITARY
                            SELECTIVE SERVICE ACT.

        (a) Report Required.--To assist the Commission in carrying out its
    duties under this subtitle, the Secretary of Defense shall--
                (1) submit, not later than July 1, 2017, to the Committees
            on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives
            and to the Commission a report on the current and future need
            for a centralized registration system under the Military
            Selective Service Act (50 U.S.C. 3801 et seq.); and
                (2) provide a briefing on the results of the report.

        (b) Elements of Report.--The report required by subsection (a) shall
    include the following:
                (1) A detailed analysis of the current benefits derived,
            both directly and indirectly, from the Military Selective
            Service System, including--
                        (A) the extent to which mandatory registration
                    benefits military recruiting;
                        (B) the extent to which a national registration
                    capability serves as a deterrent to potential enemies of
                    the United States; and
                        (C) the extent to which expanding registration to
                    include women would impact these benefits.
                (2) An analysis of the functions currently performed by the
            Selective Service System that would be assumed by the Department
            of Defense in the absence of a national registration capability.
                (3) An analysis of the systems, manpower, and facilities
            that would be needed by the Department to physically mobilize
            inductees in the absence of the Selective Service System.
                (4) An analysis of the feasibility and utility of
            eliminating the current focus on mass mobilization of primarily
            combat troops in favor of a system that focuses on mobilization
            of all military occupational specialties, and the extent to
            which such a change would impact the need for both male and
            female inductees.
                (5) A detailed analysis of the Department's personnel needs
            in the event of an emergency requiring mass mobilization,
            including--
                        (A) a detailed timeline, along with the factors
                    considered in arriving at this timeline, of when the
                    Department would require--
                              (i) the first inductees to report for service;
                              (ii) the first 100,000 inductees to report for
                          service; and
                              (iii) the first medical personnel to report
                          for service; and
                        (B) an analysis of any additional critical skills
                    that would be needed in the event of a national
                    emergency, and a timeline for when the Department would
                    require the first inductees to report for service.
                (6) A list of the assumptions used by the Department when
            conducting its analysis in preparing the report.

        (c) Comptroller General Review.--Not later than December 1, 2017,
    the Comptroller General of the United States shall submit to the
    Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House

    [[Page 130 STAT. 2132]]

    [[Page 130 STAT. 2135]]

                (1) conduct a review of the military selective service
            process; and
                (2) consider methods to increase participation in military,
            national, and public service opportunities to address national
            security and other public service needs of the Nation.

        (b) Development of Commission Recommendations.--The Commission shall
    develop recommendations on the matters subject to its review under
    subsection (a) that are consistent with the principles established by
    the President under subsection (c).
        (c) Presidential Principles.--
                (1) In general.--Not later than three months after the
            Commission establishment date, the President shall establish and
            transmit to the Commission and Congress principles for reform of
            the military selective service process, including means by which
            to best acquire for the Nation skills necessary to meet the
            military, national, and public service requirements of the
            Nation in connection with that process.
                (2) Elements.--The principles required under this subsection
            shall address the following:
                        (A) Whether, in light of the current and predicted
                    global security environment and the changing nature of
                    warfare, there continues to be a continuous or potential
                    need for a military selective service process designed
                    to produce large numbers of combat members of the Armed
                    Forces, and if so, whether such a system should include
                    mandatory registration by all citizens and residents,
                    regardless of sex.
                        (B) The need, and how best to meet the need, of the

            structure for members of the Armed Forces and a new pay
            structure for members of the Armed Forces, including new pay
            tables, that uses a single-salary pay system (as adjusted by the
            same cost-of-living adjustment that the Department of Defense
            uses worldwide for civilian employees) based on the assumptions
            in subsection (c).
                (2) A proposal for such legislative and administrative
            action as the Secretary considers appropriate to implement the
            new pay structure, and to provide for a transition between the
            current pay structure and the new pay structure.
                (3) A comprehensive schedule for the implementation of the
            new pay structure and for the transition between the current pay
            structure and the new pay structure, including all significant
            deadlines.

        (c) New Pay Structure.--The new pay structure described pursuant to
    subsection (b)(1) shall assume the repeal of the basic

    [[Page 130 STAT. 2157]]

    allowance for housing and basic allowance subsistence for members of the
    Armed Forces in favor of a single-salary pay system, and shall include
    the following:
                (1) A statement of pay comparability with the civilian
            sector adequate to effectively recruit and retain a high-quality
            All-Volunteer Force.

            to meet pay comparability as described in paragraph (1) in order
            to recruit and retain a high-quality All-Volunteer Force.
                (3) Necessary modifications to the military retirement
            system, including the retired pay multiplier, to ensure that
            members of the Armed Forces under the pay structure are situated
            similarly to where they would otherwise be under the military
            retirement system that will take effect on January 1, 2018, by
            reason part I of subtitle D of the National Defense
            Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016 (Public Law 114-92; 129
            Stat. 842), and the amendments made by that part.

        (d) Cost Containment.--The single-salary pay system under the new
    pay structure provided for by this section shall be a single-salary pay
    system that will result in no or minimal additional costs to the
    Government, both in terms of annual discretionary outlays and
    entitlements, when compared with the continuation of the current pay
    system for members of the Armed Forces.

                (1) The purposes of the Survivor Benefit Plan, the manner in
            which the Plan interacts with other Federal programs to provide
            financial stability and resources for survivors of members of
            the Armed Forces and military retirees, and a comparison between
            the benefits available under the Plan, on the one hand, and
            benefits available to Government and private sector employees,

            resources for spouses and other dependents when a primary family

    of this Act, the Secretary shall submit to the Committees on Armed

    States Code, is amended by adding at the end the following paragraph:
        ``(3)(A) The Secretary of Defense shall develop and implement a
    comprehensive strategy to optimize management practices across the
    defense commissary system and the exchange system that reduce reliance
    of those systems on appropriated funding without reducing benefits to
    the patrons of those systems or the revenue generated by nonappropriated
    fund entities or instrumentalities of the Department of Defense for the
    morale, welfare, and recreation of members of the armed forces.
        ``(B) The Secretary shall ensure that savings generated due to such
    optimization practices are shared by the defense commissary system and
    the exchange system through contracts or agreements that appropriately
    reflect the participation of the systems in the development and
    implementation of such practices.
        ``(C) If the Secretary determines that the reduced reliance on
    appropriated funding pursuant to subparagraph (A) is insufficient to
    maintain the benefits to the patrons of the defense commissary system,
    and if the Secretary converts the defense commissary system to a
    nonappropriated fund entity or instrumentality pursuant to paragraph (1)
    of section 2484(j) of this title, the Secretary shall transfer
    appropriated funds pursuant to paragraph (2) of such section to ensure
    the maintenance of such benefits.
        ``(4) On not less than a quarterly basis, the Secretary shall
    provide to the congressional defense committees a briefing on the
    defense commissary system, including--
                ``(A) an assessment of the savings the system provides
            patrons;
                ``(B) the status of implementing section 2484(i) of this
            title;

            title, including whether the system requires any appropriated
            funds pursuant to paragraph (2) of such section;
                ``(D) the status of carrying out a program for such system
            to sell private label merchandise; and
                ``(E) any other matters the Secretary considers
            appropriate.''.

        (b) Authorization to Supplement Appropriations Through Business
    Optimization.--Section 2483(c) of such title is amended by adding at the
    end the following new sentence: ``Such appropriated amounts may also be
    supplemented with additional funds derived from improved management
    practices implemented pursuant to sections 2481(c)(3) and 2487(c) of
    this title and the variable pricing program implemented pursuant to
    section 2484(i) of this title.''.

    [[Page 130 STAT. 2170]]

        (c) Variable Pricing Pilot Program.--Section 2484 of such title is
    amended by adding at the end the following new subsections:
        ``(i) Variable Pricing Program.--(1) Notwithstanding subsection (e),
    and subject to subsection (k), the Secretary of Defense may establish a
    variable pricing program pursuant to which prices may be established in
    response to market conditions and customer demand, in accordance with
    the requirements of this subsection. Notwithstanding the amount of the
    uniform surcharge assessed in subsection (d), the Secretary may provide
    for an alternative surcharge of not more than five percent of sales
    proceeds under the variable pricing program to be made available for the
    purposes specified in subsection (h).
        ``(2) Subject to subsection (k), before establishing a variable
    pricing program under this subsection, the Secretary shall establish the
    following:
                ``(A) Specific, measurable benchmarks for success in the
            provision of high quality grocery merchandise, discount savings
            to patrons, and levels of customer satisfaction while achieving
            savings for the Department of Defense.
                ``(B) A baseline of overall savings to patrons achieved by
            commissary stores prior to the initiation of the variable
            pricing program, based on a comparison of prices charged by
            those stores on a regional basis with prices charged by relevant
            local competitors for a representative market basket of goods.

        ``(3) The Secretary shall ensure that the defense commissary system
    implements the variable pricing program by conducting price comparisons
    using the methodology established for paragraph (2)(B) and adjusting
    pricing as necessary to ensure that pricing in the variable pricing
    program achieves overall savings to patrons that are consistent with the
    baseline savings established for the relevant region pursuant to such
    paragraph.
        ``(j) Conversion to Nonappropriated Fund Entity or
    Instrumentality.--(1) Subject to subsection (k), if the Secretary of
    Defense determines that the variable pricing program has met the
    benchmarks for success established pursuant to paragraph (2)(A) of
    subsection (i) and the savings requirements established pursuant to
    paragraph (3) of such subsection over a period of at least six months,
    the Secretary may convert the defense commissary system to a
    nonappropriated fund entity or instrumentality, with operating expenses
    financed in whole or in part by receipts from the sale of products and
    the sale of services. Upon such conversion, appropriated funds shall be
    transferred to the defense commissary system only in accordance with
    paragraph (2) or section 2491 of this title. The requirements of section
    2483 of this title shall not apply to the defense commissary system
    operating as a nonappropriated fund entity or instrumentality.
        ``(2) If the Secretary determines that the defense commissary system
    operating as a nonappropriated fund entity or instrumentality is likely
    to incur a loss in any fiscal year as a result of compliance with the
    savings requirement established in subsection (i), the Secretary shall
    authorize a transfer of appropriated funds available for such purpose to
    the commissary system in an amount sufficient to offset the anticipated
    loss. Any funds so transferred shall be considered to be nonappropriated
    funds for such purpose.
        ``(3)(A) The Secretary may identify positions of employees in the
    defense commissary system who are paid with appropriated

    [[Page 130 STAT. 2171]]

    funds whose status may be converted to the status of an employee of a
    nonappropriated fund entity or instrumentality.
        ``(B) The status and conversion of employees in a position
    identified by the Secretary under subparagraph (A) shall be addressed as
    provided in section 2491(c) of this title for employees in morale,
    welfare, and recreation programs, including with respect to requiring
    the consent of such employee to be so converted.
        ``(C) No individual who is an employee of the defense commissary
    system as of the date of the enactment of this subsection shall suffer
    any loss of or decrease in pay as a result of a conversion made under
    this paragraph.

    (1) With respect to each action described in paragraph (2), the
    Secretary of Defense may not carry out such action until--
                ``(A) the Secretary provides to the congressional defense
            committees a briefing on such action, including a justification
            for such action; and

                    to a particular member unless the board makes an
                    affirmative determination, by a preponderance of the
                    evidence, that the member knew or reasonably should have
                    known that the member was ineligible for the bonus pay,

                            LONG-TERM TEMPORARY DUTY ASSIGNMENTS.

        (a) Modification of Flat Rate.--
                (1) In general.--The Secretary of Defense shall take such
            action as may be necessary to provide that, to the extent that
            regulations implementing travel and transportation authorities
            for military and civilian personnel of the Department of Defense
            impose a flat rate per diem for meals and incidental expenses
            for authorized travelers on long-term temporary duty assignments
            that is at a reduced rate compared to the per diem rate
            otherwise applicable, the Secretary concerned may waive the
            applicability of such reduced rate and pay such travelers actual
            expenses up to the full per diem rate for such travel in any
            case when the Secretary concerned determines that the reduced
            flat rate per diem for meals and incidental expenses is not
            sufficient under the circumstances of the temporary duty
            assignment.
                (2) Applicability.--The Secretary concerned may exercise the
            authority provided pursuant to paragraph (1) with respect to per
            diem payable for any day on or after the date of the enactment
            of this Act.

        (b) Delegation of Authority.--The authority pursuant to subsection
    (a) may be delegated by the Secretary concerned to an officer at the
    level of lieutenant general or vice admiral, or above. Such authority
    may not be delegated to an officer below that level.
        (c) Waiver of Collection of Receipts.--The Secretary concerned or an
    officer to whom the authority pursuant to subsection (a) is delegated
    pursuant to subsection (b) may waive any requirement for the submittal
    of receipts by travelers on long-term temporary duty assignments for the
    purpose of receiving the full per diem rate pursuant to subsection (a)
    if the Secretary concerned or officer, as described in subsection (b),
    personally certifies that requiring travelers to submit receipts for
    that purpose will negatively affect mission performance or create an
    undue administrative burden.
        (d) Secretary Concerned Defined.--In this section, the term
    ``Secretary concerned'' has the meaning given that term in section 101
    of title 37, United States Code.

            Secretary of Defense shall carry out a pilot program to
            demonstrate and assess the feasibility of incorporating value-
            based health care methodology in the purchased care component of

            targeted populations of covered beneficiaries in the receipt of
            high-value medications and services and the use of high-value
            providers under such purchased care component, including by
            exempting certain services from deductible requirements.
                (2) Requirements.--In carrying out the pilot program under

                        (A) identify each high-value medication and service
                    that is covered under the purchased care component of
                    the TRICARE program for which a reduction or elimination
                    of the copayment or cost share for such medication or
                    service would encourage covered beneficiaries to use the
                    medication or service;
                        (B) reduce or eliminate copayments or cost shares
                    for covered beneficiaries to receive high-value
                    medications and services;
                        (C) reduce or eliminate copayments or cost shares
                    for covered beneficiaries to receive health care
                    services from high-value providers;

    [[Page 130 STAT. 2189]]

                        (D) credit the amount of any reduction or
                    elimination of a copayment or cost share under
                    subparagraph (B) or (C) for a covered beneficiary
                    towards meeting a deductible applicable to the covered
                    beneficiary in the purchased care component of the
                    TRICARE program to the same extent as if such reduction
                    or elimination had not applied; and
                        (E) develop a process to reimburse high-value
                    providers at rates higher than those rates for health
                    care providers that are not high-value providers.
                (3) Report on value-based health care methodology.--Not
            later than 180 days after the date of the enactment of this Act,
            the Secretary shall submit to the Committees on Armed Services

            implement value-based incentive programs as part of any contract
            awarded under chapter 55 of title 10, United States Code, for
            the provision of health care services to covered beneficiaries
            to encourage health care providers under the TRICARE program
            (including physicians, hospitals, and other persons and
            facilities involved in providing such health care services) to
            improve the following:
                        (A) The quality of health care provided to covered
                    beneficiaries under the TRICARE program.

                    incentive programs under paragraph (1), the Secretary
                    shall--

    [[Page 130 STAT. 2202]]

                              (i) link payments to health care providers
                          under the TRICARE program to improved performance
                          with respect to quality, cost, and reducing the
                          provision of inappropriate care;
                              (ii) consider the characteristics of the
                          population of covered beneficiaries affected by
                          the value-based incentive program;
                              (iii) consider how the value-based incentive
                          program would affect the receipt of health care
                          under the TRICARE program by such covered
                          beneficiaries;
                              (iv) establish or maintain an assurance that
                          such covered beneficiaries will have timely access
                          to health care during the operation of the value-
                          based incentive program;
                              (v) ensure that such covered beneficiaries do
                          not incur any additional costs by reason of the
                          value-based incentive program; and
                              (vi) consider such other factors as the
                          Secretary considers appropriate.
                        (B) Scope and metrics.--With respect to a value-
                    based incentive program developed and implemented under
                    paragraph (1), the Secretary shall ensure that--
                              (i) the size, scope, and duration of the
                          value-based incentive program is reasonable in
                          relation to the purpose of the value-based
                          incentive program; and
                              (ii) the value-based incentive program relies
                          on the core quality performance metrics adopted
                          pursuant to section 728.
                (3) Use of existing models.--In developing a value-based
            incentive program under paragraph (1), the Secretary may adapt a
            value-based incentive program conducted by a TRICARE managed
            care support contractor, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid
            Services, or any other Federal Government, State government, or
            commercial health care program.

        (b) Transfer of Contracting Responsibility.--With respect to the
    acquisition of any managed care support contracts under the TRICARE
    program initiated after the date of the enactment of this Act, the
    Secretary of Defense shall transfer contracting responsibility for the
    solicitation and award of such contracts from the Defense Health Agency

                (1) Strategy.--Not later than January 1, 2018, the Secretary
            of Defense shall develop and implement a strategy to ensure that
            managed care support contracts under the TRICARE program entered
            into with private sector entities, other than overseas medical
            support contracts--
                        (A) improve access to health care for covered
                    beneficiaries;

                    beneficiaries;
                        (C) improve the quality of health care received by
                    covered beneficiaries;
                        (D) enhance the experience of covered beneficiaries

                    consistency with such strategy.
                (3) Local, regional, and national health plans.--In
            developing and implementing the strategy required by paragraph
            (1), the Secretary shall ensure that local, regional, and

            competition for managed care support contracts under the TRICARE
            program.
                (4) Continuous innovation.--The strategy required by
            paragraph (1) shall include incentives for the incorporation of
            innovative ideas and solutions into managed care support
            contracts under the TRICARE program through the use of teaming
            agreements, subcontracts, and other contracting mechanisms that
            can be used to develop and continuously refresh high-performing
            networks of health care providers at the national, regional, and
            local level.
                (5) Elements of strategy.--The strategy required by

                    in the cost savings to the Department resulting from
                    improvement in health outcomes for covered beneficiaries

                    services from high-value health care providers.

                            TECHNICALLY ACCEPTABLE SOURCE SELECTION
                            PROCESS.

        (a) Statement of Policy.--It shall be the policy of the Department
    of Defense to avoid using lowest price technically acceptable source
    selection criteria in circumstances that would deny the Department the
    benefits of cost and technical tradeoffs in the source selection
    process.
        (b) Revision of Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement.--
    Not later than 120 days after the date of the enactment of this Act, the
    Secretary of Defense shall revise the Defense Federal Acquisition
    Regulation Supplement to require that, for solicitations issued on or
    after the date that is 120 days after the date of the enactment of this
    Act, lowest price technically acceptable source selection criteria are
    used only in situations in which--
                (1) the Department of Defense is able to comprehensively and
            clearly describe the minimum requirements expressed in terms of
            performance objectives, measures, and standards that will be
            used to determine acceptability of offers;
                (2) the Department of Defense would realize no, or minimal,
            value from a contract proposal exceeding the minimum technical
            or performance requirements set forth in the request for
            proposal;
                (3) the proposed technical approaches will require no, or
            minimal, subjective judgment by the source selection authority
            as to the desirability of one offeror's proposal versus a
            competing proposal;
                (4) the source selection authority has a high degree of
            confidence that a review of technical proposals of offerors
            other than the lowest bidder would not result in the
            identification of factors that could provide value or benefit to
            the Department;

    [[Page 130 STAT. 2271]]

                (5) the contracting officer has included a justification for
            the use of a lowest price technically acceptable evaluation
            methodology in the contract file; and
                (6) the Department of Defense has determined that the lowest
            price reflects full life-cycle costs, including for operations
            and support.

        (c) Avoidance of Use of Lowest Price Technically Acceptable Source
    Selection Criteria in Certain Procurements.--To the maximum extent
    practicable, the use of lowest price technically acceptable source
    selection criteria shall be avoided in the case of a procurement that is
    predominately for the acquisition of--
                (1) information technology services, cybersecurity services,
            systems engineering and technical assistance services, advanced
            electronic testing, audit or audit readiness services, or other
            knowledge-based professional services;
                (2) personal protective equipment; or
                (3) knowledge-based training or logistics services in
            contingency operations or other operations outside the United
            States, including in Afghanistan or Iraq.

        (d) Reporting.--Not later than December 1, 2017, and annually
    thereafter for three years, the Comptroller General of the United States
    shall submit to the congressional defense committees a report on the
    number of instances in which lowest price technically acceptable source
    selection criteria is used for a contract exceeding $10,000,000,
    including an explanation of how the situations listed in subsection (b)
    were considered in making a determination to use lowest price
    technically acceptable source selection criteria.

    enactment of this Act, the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation
    Supplement shall be revised--

            contracting methods for the procurement of personal protective
            equipment if the level of quality or failure of the item could
            result in combat casualties; and

            contracting methods for the procurement of such equipment.

            whether the appropriation has closed.

        (b) Covered Contracts.--This section covers any contract or group of
    contracts between the Department of Defense and a defense contractor,
    each one of which--
                (1) was entered into prior to fiscal year 2000;
                (2) has no further supplies or services deliverables due
            under the terms and conditions of the contract; and
                (3) is determined by the Secretary of Defense to be not
            otherwise reconcilable because--
                        (A) the records have been destroyed or lost; or
                        (B) the records are available but the Secretary of
                    Defense has determined that the time or effort required
                    to determine the exact amount owed to the United States
                    Government or amount owed to the contractor is
                    disproportionate to the amount at issue.

        (c) Negotiated Settlement Authority.--Any contract or group of
    contracts covered by this section may be closed out through a negotiated
    settlement with the contractor.
        (d) Waiver Authority.--
                (1) In general.--The Secretary of Defense is authorized to
            waive any provision of acquisition law or regulation to carry
            out the authority under subsection (a).
                (2) Notification requirement.--The Secretary of Defense
            shall notify the congressional defense committees not later than
            10 days after exercising the authority under subsection (d). The
            notice shall include an identification of each provision of law
            or regulation waived.

        (e) Adjustment and Closure of Records.--After closeout of any
    contract described in subsection (b) using the authority under this
    section, the payment or accounting offices concerned may adjust and
    close any open finance and accounting records relating to the contract.
        (f) No Liability.--No liability shall attach to any accounting,
    certifying, or payment official, or any contracting officer, for any
    adjustments or closeout made pursuant to the authority under this
    section.
        (g) Regulations.--The Secretary of Defense shall prescribe
    regulations for the administration of the authority under this section.
    SEC. 837. CLOSEOUT OF OLD DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY CONTRACTS.

        (a) Authority.--The Secretary of the Navy may close out contracts
    described in subsection (b) through the issuance of one or more
    modifications to such contracts without completing further
    reconciliation audits or corrective actions other than those described
    in this section. To accomplish closeout of such contracts--
                (1) remaining contract balances may be offset with balances
            in other contract line items within a contract regardless of the
            year or type of appropriation obligated to fund each contract
            line item and regardless of whether the appropriation for such
            contract line item has closed; and

    [[Page 130 STAT. 2287]]

                (2) remaining contract balances may be offset with balances
            on other contracts regardless of the year or type of
            appropriation obligated to fund each contract and regardless of
            whether the appropriation has closed.

        (b) Contracts Covered.--The contracts covered by this section are a
    group of contracts that are with one contractor and identified by the
    Secretary, each one of which is a contract--
                (1) to design, construct, repair, or support the
            construction or repair of Navy submarines that--
                        (A) was entered into between fiscal years 1974 and
                    1998; and
                        (B) has no further supply or services deliverables
                    due under the terms and conditions of the contract;
                (2) with respect to which the Secretary of the Navy has
            established the total final contract value; and
                (3) with respect to which the Secretary of the Navy has
            determined that the final allowable cost may have a negative or
            positive unliquidated obligation balance for which it would be
            difficult to determine the year or type of appropriation
            because--
                        (A) the records for the contract have been destroyed
                    or lost; or
                        (B) the records for the contract are available but
                    the contracting officer, in collaboration with the
                    certifying official, has determined that a discrepancy
                    is of such a minimal value that the time and effort
                    required to determine the cause of an out-of-balance
                    condition is disproportionate to the amount of the
                    discrepancy.

        (c) Closeout Terms.--The contracts described in subsection (b) may
    be closed out--
                (1) upon receipt of $581,803 from the contractor to be
            deposited into the Treasury as miscellaneous receipts;
                (2) without seeking further amounts from the contractor; and
                (3) without payment to the contractor of any amounts that
            may be due under any such contracts.

        (d) Waiver Authority.--
                (1) In general.--The Secretary of the Navy is authorized to
            waive any provision of acquisition law or regulation to carry
            out the authority under subsection (a).
                (2) Notification requirement.--The Secretary of the Navy
            shall notify the congressional defense committees not later than
            10 days after exercising the authority under paragraph (1). The
            notice shall include an identification of each provision of law
            or regulation waived.

        (e) Adjustment and Closure of Records.--After closeout of any
    contract described in subsection (b) using the authority under this
    section, the payment or accounting offices concerned may adjust and
    close any open finance and accounting records relating to the contract.
        (f) No Liability.--No liability shall attach to any accounting,
    certifying, or payment official or contracting officer for any
    adjustments or closeout made pursuant to the authority under this
    section.
        (g) Expiration of Authority.--The authority under this section shall
    expire upon receipt of the funds identified in subsection (c)(1).

    transfer authorizations--
                (1) may only be used to provide authority for items that
            have a higher priority than the items from which authority is
            transferred; and
                (2) may not be used to provide authority for an item that
            has been denied authorization by Congress.

        (c) Effect on Authorization Amounts.--A transfer made from one

            inadequate budgeting tool to address the deficits and debt of
            the Federal Government;
                (2) budget caps imposed by the Budget Control Act of 2011
            (Public Law 112-25) impose unacceptable limitations on the
            budget and increase risk to the national security of the United
            States; and
                (3) the budget caps imposed by the Budget Control Act of
            2011 must be modified or eliminated through a bipartisan
            legislative agreement.

    SEC. 1088. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING CONNECTICUT'S SUBMARINE
                              CENTURY.

        (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
                (1) On March 2, 1867, Congress enacted a naval
            appropriations Act that authorized the Secretary of the Navy to
            ``receive and accept a deed of gift, when offered by the State
            of Connecticut, of a tract of land with not less than one mile
            of shore front on the Thames River near New London, Connecticut,
            to be held by the United States for naval purposes''.
                (2) The people of Connecticut and the towns and cities in
            the southeastern region of Connecticut subsequently gifted land
            to establish a military installation to fulfil the Nation's need
            for a naval facility on the Atlantic coast.
                (3) On April 11, 1868, the Navy accepted the deed of gift of
            land from Connecticut to establish a naval yard and storage
            depot along the eastern shore of the Thames River in Groton,
            Connecticut.
                (4) Between 1868 and 1912, the New London Navy Yard
            supported a diverse range of missions, including berthing
            inactive Civil War era ironclad warships and serving as a
            coaling station for refueling naval ships traveling in New
            England waters.
                (5) Congress rejected the Navy's proposal to close New
            London Navy Yard in 1912, following an impassioned effort by
            Congressman Edwin W. Higgins, who stated that ``this action
            proposed is not only unjust but unreasonable and unsound as a
            military proposition''.
                (6) The outbreak of World War I and the enemy use of
            submarines to sink allied military and civilian ships in the
            Atlantic sparked a new focus on developing submarine
            capabilities in the United States.
                (7) October 18, 1915, marked the arrival at the New London
            Navy Yard of the submarines G-1, G-2, and G-4 under the care of
            the tender USS Ozark and the arrival of submarines E-1, D-1, and
            D-3 under the care of the tender USS Tonopah. November 1, 1915,
            marked the arrival of the first ship built as a submarine
            tender, the USS Fulton (AS-1).
                (8) On June 21, 1916, Commander Yeates Stirling assumed the
            command of the newly designated Naval Submarine Base New London,
            the New London Submarine Flotilla, and the Submarine School.
                (9) In the 100 years since the arrival of the first
            submarines to the base, Naval Submarine Base New London has
            grown to occupy more than 680 acres along the east side of the
            Thames River, with more than 160 major facilities, 15 nuclear
            submarines, and more than 70 tenant commands and activities,
            including the Submarine Learning Center, Naval Submarine School,
            the Naval Submarine Medical Research Laboratory,

    [[Page 130 STAT. 2427]]

            the Naval Undersea Medical Institute, and the newly established
            Undersea Warfighting Development Center.
                (10) In addition to being the site of the first submarine
            base in the United States, Connecticut was home to the foremost
            submarine manufacturers of the time, the Lake Torpedo Boat
            Company in Bridgeport and the Electric Boat Company in Groton,
            which later became General Dynamics Electric Boat.
                (11) General Dynamics Electric Boat, its talented workforce,
            and its Connecticut-based and nationwide network of suppliers
            have delivered more than 200 submarines from its current
            location in Groton, Connecticut, including the first nuclear-
            powered submarine, the USS Nautilus (SSN 571), and nearly half
            of the nuclear submarines ever built by the United States.
                (12) The Submarine Force Museum, located adjacent to Naval
            Submarine Base New London in Groton, Connecticut, is the only
            submarine museum operated by the United States Navy and today
            serves as the primary repository for artifacts, documents, and
            photographs relating to the bold and courageous history of the
            Submarine Force and highlights as its core exhibit the Historic
            Ship Nautilus (SSN 571) following her retirement from service.
                (13) Reflecting the close ties between Connecticut and the
            Navy that began with the gift of land that established the base,
            the State of Connecticut has set aside $40,000,000 in funding
            for critical infrastructure investments to support the mission
            of the base, including construction of a new dive locker
            building, expansion of the Submarine Learning Center, and
            modernization of energy infrastructure.
                (14) On September 29, 2015, Connecticut Governor Dannel
            Malloy designated October 2015 through October 2016 as
            Connecticut's Submarine Century, a year-long observance that
            celebrates 100 years of submarine activity in Connecticut,
            including the Town of Groton's distinction as the Submarine
            Capital of the World, to coincide with the centennial
            anniversary of the establishment of Naval Submarine Base New
            London and the Naval Submarine School.
                (15) Whereas Naval Submarine Base New London still proudly
            proclaims its motto of ``The First and Finest''.
                (16) Congressman Higgins' statement before Congress in 1912
            that ``Connecticut stands ready, as she always has, to bear her
            part of the burdens of the national defense'' remains true
            today.

        (b) Sense of Congress.--Congress--
                (1) commends the longstanding dedication and contribution to
            the Navy and submarine force by the people of Connecticut, both
            through the initial deed of gift that established what would
            become Naval Submarine Base New London and through their ongoing
            commitment to support the mission of the base and the Navy
            personnel assigned to it;
                (2) honors the submariners who have trained and served at
            Naval Submarine Base New London throughout its history in
            support of the Nation's security and undersea superiority;
                (3) recognizes the contribution of the industry and
            workforce of Connecticut in designing, building, and sustaining
            the Navy's submarine fleet; and

    [[Page 130 STAT. 2428]]

                (4) encourages the recognition of Connecticut's Submarine
            Century by Congress, the Navy, and the American people by
            honoring the contribution of the people of Connecticut to the
            defense of the United States and the important role of the
            submarine force in safeguarding the security of the United
            States for more than a century.
    SEC. 1089. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING THE REPORTING OF THE MV-22
                              MISHAP IN MARANA, ARIZONA, ON APRIL 8,
                              2000.

        It is the sense of Congress that--
                (1) in the report accompanying H.R. 1735 of the 114th
            Congress (House Report 114-102), the Committee on Armed Services
            of the House of Representatives encouraged the Secretary of
            Defense to ``publicly clarify the causes of the MV-22 mishap at
            Marana Northwest Regional Airport, Arizona, in a way consistent
            with the results of all investigations as soon as possible'';
                (2) the Deputy Secretary of Defense Robert O. Work did an
            excellent job reviewing the investigations of such mishap and
            concluded that there was a misrepresentation of facts by the
            media which incorrectly identified pilot error as the cause of
            the mishap which the Deputy Secretary publicly made known in
            March 2016; and
                (3) Congress is grateful for the successful conclusion to
            this tragic situation.

                              KC-46A AIRCRAFT.

    continuing its process of permanently stationing the KC-46A aircraft at

    to as ``CONUS'') and forward-basing outside the Continental United
    States (in this section referred to as ``OCONUS'').
        (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that the
    Secretary of the Air Force, as part of the strategic basing process for
    the KC-46A aircraft, should continue to place emphasis on and consider
    the benefits derived from outside the continental United States (OCONUS)
    locations that--
                (1) support day-to-day air refueling operations, combatant
            commander operations plans, and flexibility for contingency ops,
            and have--
                        (A) a strategic location that is essential to the
                    defense of the United States and its interests;
                        (B) receivers for boom or probe-and-drogue training
                    opportunities with joint and international partners; and
                        (C) sufficient airfield and airspace availability
                    and capacity to meet requirements; and
                (2) possess facilities that--
                        (A) take full advantage of existing infrastructure
                    to provide--
                              (i) runway, hangars, and aircrew and
                          maintenance operations; and
                              (ii) sufficient fuels receipt, storage, and
                          distribution for 5-day peacetime operating stock;
                          and
                        (B) minimize overall construction and operational
                    costs.

            referred to incorrectly as administrative leave in agency
            recording practices, has exceeded reasonable amounts--
                        (A) in contravention of--

                    Government;
                (2) administrative leave should be used sparingly;
                (3) prior to the use of paid leave to address personnel
            issues, an agency should consider other actions, including--
                        (A) temporary reassignment; and
                        (B) transfer;

            an investigation in which an employee is placed in
            administrative leave so that, not later than the conclusion of
            the leave period--
                        (A) the employee is returned to duty status; or
                        (B) an appropriate personnel action is taken with
                    respect to the employee;
                (5) data show that there are too many examples of employees
            placed in administrative leave for 6 months or longer, leaving
            the employees without any available recourse to--
                        (A) return to duty status; or
                        (B) challenge the decision of the agency;
                (6) an agency should ensure accurate and consistent
            recording of the use of administrative leave so that
            administrative leave can be managed and overseen effectively;
            and
                (7) other forms of excused absence authorized by law should
            be recorded separately from administrative leave, as defined by
            the amendments made by this section.

                    the Russian Federation, for what purpose, and how the
                    information fits into the Russian Federation's overall
                    collection posture.
                (3) Sunset.--The requirements of this subsection shall
            terminate 5 years after the date of the enactment of this Act.

            carry out any activities to implement the Open Skies Treaty
            until the requirements described in paragraph (2) are met.
                (2) Requirements described.--The requirements described in
            this paragraph are the following:
                        (A) The Director of National Intelligence and the
                    Director of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency
                    jointly submit to the appropriate congressional
                    committees a report on the following:
                              (i) Whether it is possible, consistent with
                          United States national security interests, to
                          provide enhanced access to United States
                          commercial imagery or other United States
                          capabilities, consistent with the protection of
                          sources and methods and United States national
                          security, to covered state parties that is
                          qualitatively similar to that derived by
                          observation flights over the territory of the
                          United States or over the territory of a covered
                          state party under the Open Skies Treaty, on a more
                          timely basis.
                              (ii) What the cost would be to provide
                          enhanced access to such commercial imagery or
                          other capabilities as compared to the current
                          imagery sharing through the Treaty.
                              (iii) Whether any new agreements would be
                          needed to provide enhanced access to such
                          commercial imagery or other capabilities and what
                          would be required to obtain such agreements.
                              (iv) Whether transitioning to such commercial
                          imagery or other capabilities from the current
                          imagery sharing through the Treaty would reduce
                          opportunities by the Russian Federation to exceed
                          imagery limits and reduce utility for Russian
                          intelligence collection against the United States
                          or covered state parties.
                              (v) How such commercial imagery or other
                          capabilities would compare to the current imagery
                          sharing through the Treaty.
                        (B) The Secretary of State, in consultation with the

                    and the Secretary of Defense, submits to the appropriate
                    congressional committees a report that--
                              (i) details the costs for implementation of
                          the Open Skies Treaty, including--
                                        (I) mitigation costs relating to
                                    national security; and

                                    overhead and implementation costs for
                                    covered state parties; and
                              (ii) describes the impact on contributions and
                          participation by covered state parties and
                          relationships among covered state parties in the
                          context of the Open Skies Treaty, the North
                          Atlantic Treaty Organization, and any other venues

    SEC. 1616. ORGANIZATION AND MANAGEMENT OF NATIONAL SECURITY SPACE
                              ACTIVITIES OF THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE.

        (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
                (1) National security space capabilities are a vital element
            of the national defense of the United States.
                (2) The advantages of the United States in national security
            space are now threatened to an unprecedented degree by growing
            and serious counterspace capabilities of potential foreign
            adversaries, and the space advantages of the United States must
            be protected.
                (3) The Department of Defense has recognized the threat and
            has taken initial steps necessary to defend space, however the
            organization and management may not be strategically postured to
            fully address this changed domain of operations over the long
            term.
                (4) The defense of space is currently a priority for the
            leaders of the Department, however the space mission is managed
            within competing priorities of each of the Armed Forces.
                (5) Space elements provide critical capabilities to all of
            the Armed Forces in the joint fight, however the disparate
            activities throughout the Department have no single leader that
            is empowered to make decisions affecting the space forces of the
            Department.

        (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that, to
    modernize and fully address the growing threat to the national security
    space advantage of the United States, the Secretary of

    [[Page 130 STAT. 2594]]

    Defense must evaluate the range of options and take further action to
    strengthen the leadership, management, and organization of the national
    security space activities of the Department of Defense, including with
    respect to--
                (1) unifying, integrating, and de-conflicting activities to
            provide for stronger prioritization, accountability, coherency,
            focus, strategy, and integration of the joint space program of
            the Department;
                (2) streamlining decision-making, limiting unnecessary
            bureaucracy, and empowering the appropriate level of authority,
            while enabling effective oversight;
                (3) maintaining the involvement of each of the Armed Forces
            and adapting the culture and improving the capabilities of the
            workforce to ensure the workforce has the appropriate training,
            experience, and tools to accomplish the mission; and
                (4) reviewing authorities and preparing for a conflict that
            could extend to space.

        (c) Recommendations.--Not later than 180 days after the date of the
    enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense and the Director of the
    Office of Management and Budget shall each separately submit to the
    appropriate congressional committees recommendations to--
                (1) in accordance with subsection (b), strengthen the
            leadership, management, and organization of the Department of
            Defense with respect to the national security space activities
            of the Department; and
                (2) address the findings covered in the report of the
            Comptroller General of the United States numbered GAO-16-592R
            regarding space acquisition and oversight of the Department of
            Defense.

        (d) Appropriate Congressional Committees.--In this section, the term
    ``appropriate congressional committees'' means the following:

            a fundamental role in deterring aggression against the interests
            of the United States and the allies of the United States in an
            increasingly dangerous world in which foreign adversaries,
            including the Russian Federation, are making explicit nuclear
            threats against the United States and such allies;
                (2) strong United States nuclear forces assure the allies of
            the United States that the extended deterrence guarantees of the
            United States are credible and that the resolve of the United
            States remains strong even in the face of nuclear provocations,
            including nuclear coercion and blackmail;
                (3) the prevention of war through effective deterrence
            requires survivable and flexible nuclear forces that are well
            exercised and ready to respond to nuclear escalation if
            necessary;

    [[Page 130 STAT. 2622]]

                (4) possessing a range of capabilities and options to
            counter nuclear threats assures the allies of the United States
            and enhances the credibility of United States nuclear deterrence
            by reinforcing the resolve of the United States in the minds of
            such allies and potential adversaries;
                (5) the declared policy of the United States with respect to
            the use of nuclear weapons must be coordinated and communicate
            clearly that the use of nuclear weapons against the United
            States or its vital interests would ultimately fail and subject
            the aggressor to incalculable consequences;
                (6) in support of a strong and credible nuclear deterrent,
            the United States must--
                        (A) maintain a nuclear force with a diverse,
                    flexible range of nuclear yield and delivery modes that
                    are ready, capable, and credible;
                        (B) afford the highest priority to the modernization
                    of the nuclear triad, dual-capable aircraft, and related
                    command and control elements; and
                        (C) ensure the broadest participation of allies of
                    the United States in nuclear defense planning, training,
                    and exercises to demonstrate the commitment of the
                    United States and such allies and their solidarity
                    against nuclear threats and coercion; and
                (7) with respect to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization
            (NATO)--
                        (A) NATO has made it clear at the NATO summit in
                    Warsaw, Poland, in July 2018, that--
                              (i) ``the fundamental purpose of NATO's
                          nuclear capability is to preserve peace, prevent
                          coercion, and deter aggression''; and
                              (ii) ``Nuclear weapons are unique. Any
                          employment of nuclear weapons against NATO would
                          fundamentally alter the nature of a conflict. The
                          circumstances in which NATO might have to use
                          nuclear weapons are extremely remote. If the
                          fundamental security of any of its members were to
                          be threatened however, NATO has the capabilities
                          and resolve to impose costs on an adversary that
                          would be unacceptable and far outweigh the
                          benefits that an adversary could hope to
                          achieve.''; and
                        (B) accordingly, effective deterrence requires that
                    NATO conduct realistic nuclear planning and exercises,
                    and modernize the full suite of dual-capable aircraft
                    and associated command and control networks and
                    facilities.
    SEC. 1672. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON IMPORTANCE OF INDEPENDENT NUCLEAR
                              DETERRENT OF UNITED KINGDOM.

        It is the sense of Congress that--
                (1) the United States believes that the independent nuclear
            deterrent and decision-making of the United Kingdom provides a
            crucial contribution to international stability, the North
            Atlantic Treaty Organization alliance, and the national security
            of the United States;
                (2) nuclear deterrence is and will continue to be the
            highest priority mission of the Department of Defense and the
            United States benefits when the closest ally of the United
            States clearly and unequivocally sets similar priorities;

    [[Page 130 STAT. 2623]]

                (3) the United States sees the nuclear deterrent of the
            United Kingdom as central to trans-Atlantic security and to the
            commitment of the United Kingdom to NATO to spend two percent of
            gross domestic product on defense;
                (4) the commitment of the United Kingdom to maintain a
            continuous at-sea deterrence posture today and in the future
            complements the deterrent capabilities of the United States and
            provides a credible ``second center of decision making'' which
            ensures potential attackers cannot discount the solidarity of
            the mutual relationship of the United States and the United
            Kingdom;
                (5) the United States Navy must execute the Ohio-class
            replacement submarine program on time and within budget, seeking
            efficiencies and cost savings wherever possible, to ensure that
            the program delivers a Common Missile Compartment, the Trident
            II (D5) Strategic Weapon System, and associated equipment and
            production capabilities, that support the successful development
            and deployment of the Dreadnought submarines of the United
            Kingdom; and
                (6) the close technical collaboration, especially expert
            mutual scientific peer review, provides valuable resilience and
            cost effectiveness to the respective deterrence programs of the
            United States and the United Kingdom.
