D.C. 20548 DATE:September 10, 1981 MATTER OF: Funding the Executive Development Program Under the Civil Service Reform Act DIGEST: The appropriations made to various bureaus and offices within the Department of the Treasury may be pooled so as to permit implementation of the Legal Division's Executive Development Program, under the Civil Service Reform Act of 1978, on an agencywide basis. The General Counsel of the Treasury asks whether section 403(a) of the Civil Service Reform Act of 1978 (CSRA), 5 U.S.C. § 3396 (Supp II, 1978), permits the pooling of appropriations made to the 16 distinct bureaus and offices to which Treasury Department attor- neys provide legal services so as to permit the implementation of the Treasury Department Legal Division's Executive Development Program on an agencywide basis. We agree with the General Counsel that the various constituent appropriations may be collectively administered for the benefit of a comprehensive departmentwide Legal Division program. Section 403(a) of CSRA provides: The Office of Personnel Management shall establish programs for the systematic development of candidates for the Senior Executive Service and for the continuing development of senior ex- ecutives, or require agencies to establish such programs which meet criteria prescribed by the Office. 5 U.S.C. § 3396(a). The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) has elected to implement the latter of these statutory alternatives. The implementing regulations (5 C.F.R. Part 412) set forth OPM's criteria for agency executive and management development programs. These criteria include the follow- ing, with regard to program management: Overall planning and management of the agency executive and management development program(s) shall be provided by a departmental or independent agency executive resources board or a complex of executive boards at agency and subordinate levels. * * * 5 C.F.R. § 412.107(a) (1980). The regulations also provide that [ejach program * * * shall include provisions for the funding and staffing needed to support the program. 5 C.F.R. S 412.107(b) (1980). I 1 /I Ii - 1/
