           TITLE 41--PUBLIC CONTRACTS AND PROPERTY MANAGEMENT
 
    CHAPTER 304--PAYMENT OF TRAVEL EXPENSES FROM A NON-FEDERAL SOURCE
 
PART 304-5_AGENCY RESPONSIBILITIES--Table of Contents
 
Sec. 304-5.4  May we authorize an employee to exceed the maximum subsistence 

allowances (per diem, actual expense, or conference lodging) prescribed in 
          applicable travel regulations where we have authorized 
          acceptance of payment from a non-Federal source for such 
          allowances?

    (a) Generally, yes. Subsistence allowances are usually limited to 
the maximum subsistence allowances (per diem, actual expense, or 
conference lodging) prescribed in chapter 301 of this title for travel 
in CONUS, by the Secretary of Defense for travel in non-foreign areas, 
and by the Secretary of State for travel in foreign areas. However, the 
maximum subsistence allowances established by this title and by the 
Secretary of Defense may be exceeded as long as--
    (1) The non-Federal source pays the full amount of the subsistence 
expenses, at issue; and
    (2) The subsistence expense paid by the non-Federal source is 
comparable in value to that offered to or purchased by meeting 
attendees.
    (b) The maximum subsistence allowances prescribed by the Secretary 
of State for travel to foreign areas may not be exceeded.
