The purpose of this subtitle is to authorize appropriations for the Department of Defense for fiscal year 2016 to provide additional funds— for overseas contingency operations being carried out by the Armed Forces, in such amounts as may be designated as provided in section 251(b)(2)(A)(ii) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985; and pursuant to section 1504, for expenses, not otherwise provided for, for operation and maintenance, as specified in the funding table in section 4303. Funds identified in paragraph
(2)of subsection
(a)are being authorized to be appropriated in support of base budget requirements as requested by the President for fiscal year 2016 pursuant to section 1105(a) of title 31, United States Code. The Director of the Office of Management and Budget shall apportion the funds identified in paragraph
(2)of subsection
(a)to the Department of Defense without restriction, limitation, or constraint on the execution of such funds in support of base requirements, including any restriction, limitation, or constraint imposed by, or described in, the document entitled Criteria for War/Overseas Contingency Operations Funding Requests transmitted by the Director to the Department of Defense on September 9, 2010, or any successor or related guidance. The Secretary of Defense shall apportion, use, and execute the funds apportioned by the Director of the Office of Management and Budget as described in paragraph
(2)of this subsection without restriction, limitation, or constraint on the execution of such funds in support of base requirements, including any restriction, limitation, or constraint specifically described in paragraph
(2)of this subsection. In the event of the enactment of an Act revising discretionary spending limits for fiscal year 2016, the amount that is authorized to be appropriated by section 1504, as specified in the funding table in section 4303, and is not greater than the amount of the increase in the discretionary spending limit for revised security activities by that Act, shall be deemed to have been authorized to be appropriated by section 301 rather than section 1504. In this subsection: The term Act revising discretionary spending limits for fiscal year 2016 means an Act enacted after the date of enactment of this Act that, at a minimum and in a bi-partisan manner, increases the discretionary spending limits set in the Budget Control Act of 2011 ( Public Law 112–25 ) for fiscal year 2016. The terms discretionary spending limit and revised security category have the meanings given those terms in section 250 of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 ( 2 U.S.C. 900 ).
