Sec. 772.101  Basic authority.


    This part establishes a mechanism for agencies to provide interim 
relief to employees and applicants for employment who prevail in an 
initial decision issued by the Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB) as 
required by the Whistleblower Protection Act of 1989, Pub. L. 101-12 
(codified at 5 U.S.C. 7701(b)(2)(A)). The interim relief provisions of 
the law are applicable whether or not alleged reprisal for 
whistleblowing is at issue in an appeal to MSPB.
