Nothing in this section shall prevent any change made by agreement in the increases in rates of pay provided pursuant to this section. SEC. 5.

Accordingly, the Congress does not intend, by limiting the effect of section 4 to rates of pay, to endorse the continued furnishing of substandard quarters to employees and urges management and labor to negotiate an agreement to provide, as soon as possible, substantially improved living quarters for employees on travel status. SEC. 6. This resolution shall take effect immediately upon enactment. Approved May 18, 1971.
