Briefings are owed every 60 days until the agreement is finalized
The document says “shall”Who acts: Secretary of Veterans AffairsHow: statuteSec. 2 in the PDF
What the document says
“not less frequently than once every 60 days after the date on which the Secretary failed to satisfy such requirement, provide to the Committee on Veterans' Affairs of the Senate and the Committee on Veterans' Affairs of the House of Representatives a briefing on the progress of the Secretary toward finalizing such agreement”
Subsection (a)(2)(B)(ii). This is the second thing owed if the 60 day deadline is missed, and it recurs rather than happening once. The 60 day interval runs from the date the deadline was missed.
What the document actually says
“not less frequently than once every 60 days after the date on which the Secretary failed to satisfy such requirement, provide to the Committee on Veterans' Affairs of the Senate and the Committee on Veterans' Affairs of the House of Representatives a briefing on the progress of the Secretary toward finalizing such agreement”
That sentence, in plain words
The VA must also give those groups a talk every 60 days. The talk must say how the deal is coming along.
What this is about
This keeps on until the deal is done. It starts on the day the deal is late.

How to Read This Page
The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, checked against the page
number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary,
not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the
quotation rather than replacing it.
