entitled ``Career Transition Assistance for Federal Employees''.

    (a) This subpart implements the President's memorandum of September 
12, 1995, to establish agency Career Transition Assistance Plans for 
Federal employees during a period of severe Federal downsizing. It is 
the policy of the United States Government to provide services to help 
surplus and displaced Federal employees take charge of their own careers 
and find other job offers, either within the Federal Government or in 
the private sector.
    (b) These regulations set forth minimum criteria for agency Career 
Transition Assistance Plans. Consistent with the regulations, agencies 
may supplement these provisions to expand career transition 
opportunities to their surplus and displaced workers at their 
discretion.
    (c) Sections 330.602(a)(2) and 330.604 through 330.609 do not apply 
to the Department of Defense Priority Placement Program.
    (d) New negotiated agreements and agreements which have expired 
since February 29, 1996, the effective date of the interim regulations, 
will be subject to the provisions set forth in this part.
