The amendment eliminated the 1 percent that was added to each cost-of-living adjustment and estab- lished a new method of adjusting civil service retirement annuities. Under the new procedure, the Office of Personnel Management was required, in January and July of each year, to determine the percent change in the consumer price index over the preceding 6- month period. If a rise in the price index has occurred, each annu- ity is increased, effective March 1 in the case of the January deter- mination and September 1 in the case of the July determination, by the percent change, adjusted to the nearest one-tenth of 1 per- cent. This twice-a-year adjustment mechanism was annualized in 1981. Section 1702 of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1981 (Public Law 97-35) eliminated all future September adjust- ments. Section 301 of the Omnibus Reconciliation Act of 1982, Public Law 97-253, approved September 8, 1982, provides special rules for cost-of-living adjustments which will occur in fiscal years 1983, 1984, and 1985. First, section 301 provides that payment of civil service retirement cost-of-living adjustments which occur under section 8340 of title 5, United States Code, will be delayed one month in each of the next three calendar years. Adjustments cur- rently are payable April 1 of each year. Under section 301, adjust- ments will be payable May 1, 1983, June 1, 1984, and July 1, 1985. Second, section 301 provides that civil service retirees who are under age 62 at the time of a cost-of-living adjustment under sec- tion 8340 shall receive only one-half of such adjustment. For the next three years the full adjustments are projected to be 6.6 per- cent, 7.2 percent, and 6.6 percent. Thus, under section 301, retirees under age 62 would receive adjustments of at least 3.3 percent, 3.6 percent, and 3.3 percent. Section 301 further provides that retirees subject to the limitation will receive an additional adjustment if the cost-of-living adjustments which actually occurs under section 8340 exceeds the projected adjustment. If this occurs, the retiree will receive one-half of the projected adjustment plus the entire amount by which the actual adjustment exceeds that projected. For example, if the full cost-of-living adjustment effective in 1983 is 7.6 percent rather than the projected 6.6 percent, retirees subject to the limitation in section 301 would receive 3.3 percent (one-half of the projected adjustment plus an additional one percent reflecting the error in the projection). The limitation in section 301 does not apply to individuals receiving survivor annuities or individuals re- tired on disability. Prior to October 1, 1976, section 8340(b) of title 5, United States Code, provided that whenever the price index increased by at least 3 percent over the index for the month used as the base for the most recent cost-of-living increase, and remained at or exceeded 3 percent for 3 consecutive months, each annuity would be increased Approved For Release 2008/09/12 : CIA-RDP86B00338R000400520024-7 Approved For Release 2008/09/12 : CIA-RDP86B00338R000400520024-7 ? ? 43 by an amount equal to the highest percentage rise in the index during the 3 consecutive months, plus an additional 1 percent. The annuity increases became effective on the first day of the third month following the 3-consecutive-month period. That procedure for providing cost-of-living adjustments resulted from several amendments to the civil service retirement provisions. The 1962 amendment to the Civil Service Retirement Act (Public Law 87-793; 76 Stat. 869) provided that whenever the Consumer Price Index of the Bureau of Labor Statistics rose by an average of 3 percent or more for a full calendar year above the average base year, a comparable percentage increase in retirees' annuities would become effective on April l_of the following year. If the increase in the Consumer Price Index was not 3 percent, the Civil Service Commission had to wait until the following January 1 for another determination. The 1965 amendments to the Civil Service Retirement Act (Public Law 89-205; 79 Stat. 840) geared cost-of-living adjustments to a more sensitive monthly indicator ,instead of the average calen- dar year indicator. These amendments provided that whenever the Consumer Price Index rose 3 percent or more for 3 consecutive months, annuities would be increased by the highest percentage during such 3 months with the increase taking effect on the first day of the third month following the 3-consecutive-month period. Section 204 of Public Law 91-93 (83 Stat. 139) amended the cost of living provisions of law to include an additional 1 percent adjust- ment when each cost-of-living adjustment was made. The addition- al 1 percent adjustment feature was added to take into account the 5-month period which elapsed between the initial month in which the Consumer Price Index rose by 3 percent over the previous base month and the month in which the increase was reflected in the annuity check. 0 Approved For Release 2008/09/12 : CIA-RDP86B00338R000400520024-7
