There is no objection to a proposed revision of Volume 1 of the Joint Travel Regulations to grant leave entitlements under 37 U.S.C. § 411b, where because of the critical nature of the member's job he is not authorized leave travel between permanent station assignments provided such travel takes place within a reasonable tiie following the change of station, and entitlem.2ents do not exceed those provided if travel had occurred between assignments. This action is in response to a request by the Assistant Secretary of the Uavy (M!anpower and Reserve Affairs) for a decision as to whether it is legally permissible to amend Volume I of the Joint Travel Regulations to authorize travel and transportation allowances in the instances described below.

The submission indicates that paragraphs M5500 and IM5501 of Volume 1 of the Joint Travel Regulations implement new leave travel entitlements authorized by 37 U.S.C. § 411b (Supp. III, 1973), which provides as follows: PUBLISHED DECISION 55 CoPmp.
