Section 5010 amends section 1078(f)(1) of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018. It strikes the clause that keyed the provision to two years after a third report by the Comptroller General, and inserts the words After September 30, 2026. The heading names the Technology Modernization Fund and its Board as the subject.

That sentence, in plain words

Cross out the words that tied a rule to a watchdog report. Write in these words: After September 30, 2026.

What this is about

A rule can start on a set day or when some event happens. This part swaps an event for a day. A day is easier to know.

What This Page Covers, and What It Leaves Out

The one thing the section does: amend section 1078(f)(1) of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 by striking a phrase and inserting a date.

Nothing else. The section is a single sentence.

The section amends an older law. What section 1078(f)(1) does once the trigger is met is not recorded here, because that Act is not indexed on this site.
