Title: Federal Travel Regulation (FTR) Case 2007-304, Relocation Allowances--Governmentwide Relocation Advisory Board 
Abstract: The General Services Administration (GSA) continually reviews and adjusts policies as a part of its ongoing mission to provide policy assistance to the Government agencies subject to the Federal Travel Regulation (FTR). Accordingly, GSA created the Governmentwide Relocation Advisory Board (GRAB), consisting of Government and private industry relocation experts, to examine Government relocation policy. To allow for the use of private industry expertise in the rulemaking and possible legislative actions, the GRAB was chartered as a Federal advisory committee pursuant to the Federal Advisory Committee Act on July 9, 2004. The GRAB submitted a final report of its findings on September 15, 2005. If implemented, the 100 plus recommendations of the GRAB would keep Government relocation practices aligned with private sector best practices, as well as improve the overall management of Government relocation programs and reduce costs. This proposed rule transforms many of the GRAB’s recommendations into FTR policy. The GRAB Findings and Recommendations and corresponding documents may be accessed at GSA’s website at http://www.gsa.gov/grab.
