Exemption from requirement for capital planning and investment control for information technology equipment included as integral part of a weapon or weapon system (sec. 895)

The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 895) that would require that the milestone decision authority shall only apply the requirements of paragraphs (2) through (5) of section 11312(b) of title 40, United States Code, to national security systems upon a written determination that the application of these requirements is appropriate and in the best interests of the Department of Defense.

The House amendment contained no similar provision.

The House recedes.
