The statute specifically instructs the Secretary of Defense regarding the provision of medical care to foreign personnel and how reimbursement should be handled. Although the statute leaves room for discretion in implementing the reimbursement process and granting waivers, it identifies a specific regulatory task related to foreign military personnel healthcare.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

The statute authorizes the Secretary of Defense to require reimbursement for medical care provided to foreign military and diplomatic personnel, but it does not mandate specific regulations. While it does lay out some instructions, it doesn’t directly mandate regulations implementing the reimbursement or waiver.

Regulation: 32 CFR Part 623
Authorizing Statute: 10 U.S. Code § 2571
Agency: Department of Army
Restrictions: 62
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute specifically authorizes the transfer of supplies and services between armed forces. This creates a specific regulatory task for the agency to operationalize this authorization and set guidelines for how the transfer of army material will occur.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

32 CFR Part 623 cites 10 U.S.C. 2571 in its regulatory authority which authorizes ‘interchange of supplies and services’ which clearly relates to the ‘loan of army materiel.’

Regulation: 32 CFR Part 273
Authorizing Statute: 10 U.S. Code § 2572
Agency: Department of Defense
Restrictions: 367
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute clearly instructs the agency (the Secretary concerned) on a specific regulatory task: to prescribe regulations governing the loan or gift of specific items (documents, historical artifacts, combat materiel, etc.) to specific types of organizations. While the statute uses the phrase “regulations prescribed by the Secretary concerned” it is still dictating a specific domain, therefore meeting the requirements of specific authority as “clearly instructs an agency on a specific regulatory task or gap, even using open-ended terms like ‘appropriate,’ ‘reasonable,’ or ‘necessary.'”

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

Subsection (d)(1) of 10 U.S.C. § 2572 explicitly states that loans or gifts made under the section shall be subject to regulations prescribed by the Secretary concerned, directly mandating the creation of regulations. The provided regulation, 32 CFR Part 273, includes 10 U.S.C. § 2572 in its authority citation, further demonstrating a direct mandate.

Regulation: 32 CFR Part 621
Authorizing Statute: 10 U.S. Code § 2574
Agency: Department of Army
Restrictions: 21
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute explicitly permits the sale of armament under specific conditions (“advantageously replaced,” “not needed for historical value,” “adequate sentimental reasons”). The agency’s role, according to the statute, is to determine if these conditions are met. Although the statute uses terms that allow for agency discretion (e.g., “adequate sentimental reasons”), it still provides a specific regulatory task: managing the sale of armament according to those conditions.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

The regulation, 32 CFR Part 621, specifically addresses the “sale of ordnance property” in § 621.2, and the authority note explicitly cites 10 U.S.C. § 2574. Therefore, the regulation is directly mandated by the statute.

Regulation: 32 CFR Part 281
Authorizing Statute: 10 U.S. Code § 2575
Agency: Department of Defense
Restrictions: 12
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute specifically instructs the agency (Secretaries of military departments and Homeland Security) on the regulatory task of disposing of lost, abandoned, or unclaimed personal property. It provides detailed instructions regarding the required effort to find owners, timelines for disposal, and handling of proceeds. Even though the Secretaries have discretion regarding specific procedures under the ‘under such regulations’ clause, the statute clearly defines the regulatory task, which constitutes specific authority.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

The statute explicitly states that the Secretaries “under such regulations as they may respectively prescribe, may each by public or private sale or otherwise, dispose of all lost, abandoned, or unclaimed personal property”. This is a direct mandate to create regulations governing the disposal of unclaimed property.

Regulation: 32 CFR Part 212
Authorizing Statute: 10 U.S. Code § 2554
Agency: Department of Defense
Restrictions: 33
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute outlines specific regulatory tasks, such as prescribing regulations for lending equipment, providing transportation, and requiring bonds. While the statute uses terms like “under such regulations as he may prescribe” which leaves room for agency discretion, the legislation clearly instructs the agency on a specific regulatory task to fulfill the intentions of the Statute.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

The statute (10 U.S.C. § 2554) explicitly authorizes the Secretary of Defense to prescribe regulations concerning lending equipment and providing services to the Boy Scouts of America for national or world jamborees. 32 CFR Part 212 is issued under the authority of, inter alia, 10 U.S.C. 2554, which directly mandates the regulatory action.

Regulation: 32 CFR Part 213
Authorizing Statute: 10 U.S. Code § 2554
Agency: Department of Defense
Restrictions: 13
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute specifically instructs the agency (Department of Defense) on a particular regulatory task: providing support to the Boy Scouts of America. It defines what support can be given (equipment, transportation) and under what conditions (availability, reimbursement for transportation). While the statute uses the phrase “under such regulations as he may prescribe,” indicating some discretion, it’s within the bounds of achieving a specific, identified regulatory objective.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

The statute explicitly authorizes the Secretary of Defense to prescribe regulations governing the lending of equipment and provision of services to the Boy Scouts of America. This indicates a direct mandate to create regulations related to the authorized activities.

Regulation: 32 CFR Part 252
Authorizing Statute: 10 U.S. Code § 2554
Agency: Department of Defense
Restrictions: 3
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute provides specific instructions on how the Secretary of Defense may support Boy Scout Jamborees, including lending equipment, providing transportation, and offering logistical support on military installations. While “under such regulations as he may prescribe” allows for agency discretion, it’s within the defined scope of supporting Boy Scout Jamborees. The statute specifically identifies the regulatory task, as it instructs the agency how to provide items like cots, blankets and medical supplies. It also discusses the specific task of providing transportation on military sealift command or aircraft.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

The statute authorizes the Secretary of Defense to prescribe regulations related to lending equipment and providing services to the Boy Scouts of America for Jamborees, but it does not mandate that they do so. The use of “is hereby authorized” indicates permissive authority rather than a requirement.

Regulation: 32 CFR Part 252
Authorizing Statute: 10 U.S. Code § 2555
Agency: Department of Defense
Restrictions: 3
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute specifically authorizes the Secretary of Defense to provide transportation services to particular Girl Scout events and delegates the authority to prescribe regulations to govern the provision of these services. While the term “under such regulations as he may prescribe” is open-ended, the statute clearly outlines the specific regulatory task of managing the transportation for the defined events.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

The statute (10 U.S.C. § 2555) authorizes the Secretary of Defense to prescribe regulations related to providing transportation for Girl Scout events, but it does not mandate that the Secretary issue such regulations. The word “authorized” implies discretion. The regulation (32 CFR Part 252) addresses scouting operations at military installations, which aligns with the statute’s authorization to provide transportation, but the statute does not explicitly require the regulation.

Regulation: 32 CFR Part 273
Authorizing Statute: 10 U.S. Code § 2557
Agency: Department of Defense
Restrictions: 367
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

10 U.S.C. § 2557 specifically authorizes the Secretary of Defense to make nonlethal excess supplies available for humanitarian relief, domestic emergency assistance, and homeless veterans assistance. While the statute itself outlines the basic framework and recipients, it implicitly requires the agency to create regulations to define “excess supplies” and manage the transfer and distribution process. While “excess property” is defined in DoD regulations, the specific parameters of how these transfers occur and the further definition of “nonlethal supplies” could be fleshed out by regulatory action.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

The regulation 32 CFR Part 273 cites 10 U.S.C. § 2557 in its authority section. This indicates that the regulation is authorized by the statute. The statute uses permissive language (“may”), indicating that the regulation is authorized but not mandated.

Regulation: 48 CFR Part 7
Authorizing Statute: 10 U.S. Code § 252
Agency: General Services Administration
Restrictions: 123
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

10 U.S.C. § 252 does not delegate any authority to make rules or regulations to agencies. It is a direct grant of power to the President. Thus, it doesn’t fit within Hickman’s delegation framework, which focuses on delegations to agencies. While the Executive Orders included in the historical notes do delegate authority, that’s delegation from the President, not delegation from Congress.

Relationship: unrelated
Beta

10 U.S. Code § 252 concerns the President’s authority to use the military to enforce federal law within states, while 48 CFR Part 7 relates to acquisition planning by government agencies. These topics are unrelated.

Regulation: 48 CFR Part 7
Authorizing Statute: 10 U.S. Code § 253
Agency: General Services Administration
Restrictions: 123
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

While 10 U.S.C. Chapter 4 and Chapter 137 generally provide authority related to the armed forces, the specific mention of these chapters as the basis for 48 CFR Part 7 suggests Congress gave the agency clear instruction on a specific regulatory task by setting up the framework for military acquisitions. The reference to 10 U.S.C. 3016 strengthens this as it provides further specific details related to the armed forces.

Relationship: unrelated
Beta

The statute concerns the President’s authority to use armed forces to suppress insurrections and enforce laws, while the regulation pertains to acquisition planning for government procurement. There is no apparent relationship between these two subjects.

Regulation: 48 CFR Part 7
Authorizing Statute: 10 U.S. Code § 254
Agency: General Services Administration
Restrictions: 123
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

10 U.S.C. chapter 4 and 10 U.S.C. chapter 137 legacy provisions (see 10 U.S.C. 3016) grants broad authority regarding the organization, powers, and functions of the Department of Defense and military acquisitions. This is a broad delegation, as it gives general authority to create regulations related to procurement, rather than specifying a particular regulatory task related to acquisition.

Relationship: unrelated
Beta

10 U.S. Code § 254 concerns the President’s authority to issue a proclamation ordering insurgents to disperse when military force is deemed necessary. 48 CFR Part 7 pertains to acquisition planning within the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) system, outlining guidelines for government agencies to plan their procurement activities. There is no connection between these two domains.

Regulation: 32 CFR Part 226
Authorizing Statute: 10 U.S. Code § 2546
Agency: Department of Defense
Restrictions: 18
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

Without the text of the statute, but knowing that it resulted in regulations regarding providing shelter for the homeless (32 CFR Part 226), it is reasonable to infer that the statute granted a general authority to the relevant agency to address the issue of shelter for the homeless. It is unlikely, though possible, that the statute provides extremely specific directives concerning the exact nature of the shelter program and its procedures. However, without the text, it’s more likely a general delegation.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

The regulation, 32 CFR Part 226, explicitly cites 10 U.S.C. 2546 as its authority. This indicates the statute authorizes the regulation. Without the actual text of 10 U.S.C. 2546, it’s impossible to determine if the regulation is directly mandated. Therefore, the best fit is “authorized but not mandated.” Note that the citation refers to a renumbered statute. Further investigation would be required to determine the specific content of the current statute.

Regulation: 48 CFR Part 7
Authorizing Statute: 10 U.S. Code § 255
Agency: General Services Administration
Restrictions: 123
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

The statute itself doesn’t delegate authority; it defines a term. However, the regulations (48 CFR Part 7) cite 10 U.S.C. chapter 4 and 10 U.S.C. chapter 137 (legacy provisions, see 10 U.S.C. 3016) as authority. These chapters provide broad rulemaking authority related to defense acquisition, fitting the “General Authority” category.

Relationship: related but neither directly mandated nor explicitly authorized
Beta

The statute defines “State” to include Guam and the Virgin Islands for the purposes of Title 10, which is related to defense. 48 CFR Part 7 deals with acquisition planning, which could be related to the statute if the acquisition planning involves Guam or the Virgin Islands, but it is neither directly mandated nor explicitly authorized by this specific statute.

Regulation: 48 CFR Part 7
Authorizing Statute: 10 U.S. Code § 241
Agency: General Services Administration
Restrictions: 123
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

Although the statute provided doesn’t directly delegate any authority, the regulation cites ’10 U.S.C. chapter 4 and 10 U.S.C. chapter 137 legacy provisions (see 10 U.S.C. 3016)’ as an authority. It is likely that these chapters provide specific (or somewhat specific) instructions regarding military procurements.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

10 U.S.C. § 241 doesn’t directly mandate the regulation (48 CFR Part 7). Instead, it describes the contents of chapters within Title 10 related to reserve components. However, 48 CFR Part 7’s authority section mentions “10 U.S.C. chapter 4 and 10 U.S.C. chapter 137 legacy provisions (see 10 U.S.C. 3016)”. These chapters authorize acquisition planning, but Section 241 itself does not.

Regulation: 48 CFR Part 7
Authorizing Statute: 10 U.S. Code § 246
Agency: General Services Administration
Restrictions: 123
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

The statute (10 U.S.C. § 246) defines the militia; it does not provide any specific regulatory tasks for an agency related to acquisition planning, therefore any link is a broad rulemaking authority.

Relationship: related but neither directly mandated nor explicitly authorized
Beta

10 U.S.C. § 246 defines the composition of the US militia. 48 CFR Part 7 relates to acquisition planning. While both relate to the armed forces, the statute does not directly mandate nor explicitly authorize the regulation.

Regulation: 48 CFR Part 7
Authorizing Statute: 10 U.S. Code § 247
Agency: General Services Administration
Restrictions: 123
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

10 U.S.C. chapter 4 and chapter 137, cited in the regulation’s authority, concerns the organization, administration, training, and equipment of the armed forces. These chapters provide specific regulatory tasks for acquiring equipment and supplies.

Relationship: related but neither directly mandated nor explicitly authorized
Beta

The statute addresses exemptions from militia duty, while the regulation pertains to acquisition planning. There is no direct mandate or explicit authorization between the two. They are related insofar as both deal with the armed forces, but are not directly linked.

Regulation: 48 CFR Part 5231
Authorizing Statute: 10 U.S. Code § 2501
Agency: Department of Navy
Restrictions: 10
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

Without the text of 10 U.S.C. 2501, it’s difficult to ascertain whether the statute specifically instructs the agency to create regulations on contract cost principles and procedures. However, given the subject matter, “centralized guidance, analysis, and planning,” it seems to provide a broader authority that encompasses this type of regulation, rather than directly mandating it.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

The regulation, 48 CFR Part 5231, cites 10 U.S.C. 2501 in its authority section, indicating that the statute authorizes the regulation. However, the statute’s text (related to centralized guidance, analysis, and planning) is not reproduced, so it’s not possible to determine if the statute directly mandates this particular regulation.

Regulation: 48 CFR Part 7
Authorizing Statute: 10 U.S. Code § 251
Agency: General Services Administration
Restrictions: 123
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The regulation cites specific U.S. Code sections (40 U.S.C. 121(c); 10 U.S.C. chapter 4 and 10 U.S.C. chapter 137 legacy provisions (see 10 U.S.C. 3016); and 51 U.S.C. 20113) as the basis for its authority. These sections, while broad in themselves (especially the chapters), provide the legal basis for acquisition planning, demonstrating a specific, traceable delegation.

Relationship: unrelated
Beta

10 U.S. Code § 251 pertains to the President’s authority to use federal forces to suppress insurrections within states. 48 CFR Part 7 concerns federal acquisition planning. There is no logical or legal connection between these two subjects.

Regulation: 48 CFR Part 7
Authorizing Statute: 10 U.S. Code § 240e
Agency: General Services Administration
Restrictions: 123
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute gives a specific task to the Secretary of Defense: to improve data collection and analyses for auditable financial statements through competitive procurement or development of technologies and services. This falls under the “Specific Authority” delegation because it instructs the agency on a specific regulatory task, even though it uses the open-ended term “improve.”

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

10 U.S. Code § 240e directly mandates the Secretary of Defense to use competitive procedures to procure or develop technologies and services to improve data collection and analyses for preparing auditable financial statements. The statute requires a specific action related to acquisition planning, making it directly mandated.

Regulation: 48 CFR Part 7
Authorizing Statute: 10 U.S. Code § 240f
Agency: General Services Administration
Restrictions: 123
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute clearly instructs the Department of Defense on a specific regulatory task of how to choose auditing service providers (“best value,” not “lowest price”). This is a specific regulatory task, so it fits into the Specific Authority Delegations.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

The statute directs the Department of Defense to select service providers based on “best value” rather than “lowest price.” 48 CFR Part 7 deals with acquisition planning in general. While the regulation is broadly relevant to DoD procurement, the statute doesn’t explicitly mandate a new regulation be written, or amend existing ones. It simply directs how the department should approach selection. Therefore, the relationship is authorized but not mandated.

Regulation: 48 CFR Part 7
Authorizing Statute: 10 U.S. Code § 240g
Agency: General Services Administration
Restrictions: 123
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute explicitly instructs the Secretary of Defense to maintain a specific plan (the “Defense Business Systems Audit Remediation Plan”) and outlines the elements that the plan must include. It further mandates specific reporting and briefing requirements. This level of detail and specific direction clearly indicates a Specific Authority delegation.

Relationship: related but neither directly mandated nor explicitly authorized
Beta

The statute 10 U.S.C. § 240g mandates the Secretary of Defense to maintain a plan and provide reports and briefings related to defense business systems audit remediation. 48 CFR Part 7 concerns acquisition planning generally. While both relate to the Department of Defense, the regulation does not appear to be directly mandated or explicitly authorized by this specific statute. It seems more generally related to the department’s overall operations and planning processes, within which the statute”™s requirements would fall.

Regulation: 48 CFR Part 7
Authorizing Statute: 10 U.S. Code § 240h
Agency: General Services Administration
Restrictions: 123
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

10 U.S.C. § 240h specifically instructs the Secretary of Defense and heads of military departments/defense agencies ranked in the bottom quartile to submit reports with detailed information. This is a clearly defined regulatory task.

Relationship: related but neither directly mandated nor explicitly authorized
Beta

The statute concerns reporting requirements related to financial audits within the Department of Defense. The regulation, 48 CFR Part 7, deals with acquisition planning. While both relate to the Department of Defense, the statute does not directly mandate the regulation, nor does it explicitly authorize it. They are related through the common subject matter of DoD operations and management but are not directly linked in terms of statutory requirement.

Regulation: 48 CFR Part 7
Authorizing Statute: 10 U.S. Code § 240i
Agency: General Services Administration
Restrictions: 123
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

10 U.S.C. § 240i specifically instructs the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) to submit a report on unfunded priorities of the Department of Defense related to audit readiness and remediation. The statute outlines the specific elements that must be included in the report. This level of detail qualifies it as a specific authority delegation because it gives the agency a clearly defined task.

Relationship: related but neither directly mandated nor explicitly authorized
Beta

The statute mandates a report on unfunded priorities related to audit readiness and remediation. While 48 CFR Part 7 addresses acquisition planning generally, it doesn’t directly mandate or explicitly authorize regulations specifically concerning the content or submission of reports on unfunded priorities, even though the statute touches upon financial matters that could potentially be subject to acquisition planning. However, there is a relationship, as the acquisition planning covered by 48 CFR Part 7 could inform budget decisions.
