C. 20548 NIT FILE: MATTER DIGEST: B-1831 OF: DATE: JUL 2 9 197 10 Travel Expenses - Honor Awards 6q 1. The Secretaries concerned may issue regulations authorizing the payment of travel and transportation expenses of civilian employees of the Department of Defense and military members who travel on temporary duty to receive non-Federally sponsored honor awards provided such awards are determined in each case to be reasonably related to the duties of the employee or member and the functions and activities of the agency to whichithe recipient is attached. Travel to receive awards in which such determination cannot clearly be made is not travel on public (official) business and no authority exists for such travel at Government expense. 2. If travel of Department of Defense civilian employees and military members to receive non-Federally sponsored honor awards includes attending meetings or con- ventions of organizations covered by 37 U. S. C. 412 (1970), 5 U. S. C. 5946 and 4110 (1970), proposed regulations which would authorize such travel at Government expense must be in accord with those statutes. 3. There is no authority for the Secretaries concerned to issue regulations authoriz- ing the payment of travel and transporta- tion expenses of dependents of civilian employees or military members to accompany such employees or members who are receiving honor awards, nor is there authority for the payment of travel and transportation expenses of such dependents to receive awards themselves.
