The annuity laterminated, retire- ment contributions are withheld, and future annuity rights are determined wider the law in effect upon subsequent separation. In the case of an annuitant Involun- tarily separated who is reemployed in a Position not -subject to the- retirement law,, such as a temporary appointment, H.R. 3650 provides the same terms for re- employment as those governing- the re- employment of an annuitant voluntarily retired. Such a reemployed annuitant would -continue- to receive his full an- nuity, but his salary would be reduced by an amount equal to his annuity allocable to the period of actual employment. If such annuitant serves on a full-time basis for at least 1 year, or on a part-time basis for periods equivalent to at least 1 year of full-time service, the annuitant would be entitled to a supplemental an- nuity based on the period of reemploy- ment..- If the period of - reemployment continues for at least 5 years, or the equivalent of 5 years in the case of -part- tit n e employment, the annuitant may elect to deposit in the retirement fund .an amount computed in accordance with the provisions of law and have his an- nuity recomputed on the basis of his total service, including the period of reenn, ployment As noted above, under exIet- ing law the right to a supplemental an- nuity, or recomputation niter 5 years of service, extends only to annuitants whose annuities are based .on voluntary separations. . H.R. 3650 also amends existing law to alter the terms of reemployment for the following classes of . annuitants: ...--- ? ..A nonmember annuitant reemployed in a position subject to retirement cov- erage by Presidential appointment. , PRESENT LAW Pay in the reemployment position is reduced by the amount of annuity alloa cable to the period of reemployment: No current retirement deductions are ?Ween from pay.

Since this legisla- tion requires that the appropriation ac- counts must be charged , with the full salary costs, these allowances must also be charged with the full amount of the annual salary of a reemployed aimu- itant rather than the current practice of charging the allowances with the net amount after reduction for the annuity. However, it is the judgment of the com- mittee thata this matter should be re- viewed and considered 'by , the proper Senate Committee; namely, the Sub- committee on Legislative Branch Ap- propriations' of the. Committee 'on, Ap- propriations inasmuch as that Commit- tee considers all matters relating- to sen- atorial allowances.

The PRESIDING OFFICER,. The ques- tion is on agreeing to the amendment. The arnenclmtut Was azrepel fci sTEVENS. Mr. President, I am not going to object to passage of the bill. This bill does, however, pat the Federal Government in a different position from all other employers. Civil service retirees who go to work in the private sector or for a State or local government will net have to make. this contribution. ' In view of the status of the civil serv- ice retirement fund, it may be a well meaning proposition to assist in restoring moneys to that fund for those people who are given reemployment by the Fed- end Government. But I do think that it is going to be a deterrent to some areas of government which might reemploy those who are already retired in order to take advantage of their special skills and capabilities. With that reservation, and in view of the status of the civil service retirement fund, we do not object to the passage of the bill. Mr. McGEE. Mr. President, I suggest the absence of a quorum, with. the time to he charged equally against both sides. The PRESIDING .OFFICER. Without objection, it Is so ordered. The clerk will call the roll.

Mr. President, it is the intention of the leatteeship to call up Calendar No. 839, N.E. 12937, on which there is a time limitation.. The best I think we can do tonight is to get started. . Then we have bills to ea-tend the Ex- port Administration Act of 1969. Mr. ROBERT C. BYRD. How about the swine flu bin? Mr. MANSFIELD.. There is a possibil- ity that tomorrow we will take up the bill, Calendar No. 1072, S. 3735, the so- called swine fin bill, which has been re- ported from the committee and has been on the calendar since laat Friday. We had hoped we could bring up the military construction bill, but that will have to go over until after the recess. hope it will he possible tomorrow to take up Calendar No. 1063, 8.3737, a bill to authorize appropriations for purposes - of making certain grants under the In- dian Elementary and Secondary Assist- ance Act, The Senator froze- Arizona (Mr. .Faoung) has a great interest in that, So I would say the prospects tomorrow are very good for taking up a swine flu bill, that we would continue with the consideration of the CETA bill, Calendar No. 839, and other matters as they comb along, which we will bring to the at- tention of the Senate at that time.. ... Mr. TOWER. Mr. President, will the Senator yield? Tine Senator intends, after the consideration of Senate Resolu- tion 463, we will turn to the considera- tion of Calendar No. 339, H.R. 12987, the CETA bill, is that correct? Mr: MANSFIELD.
