Conditions under Which Secretary of Veterans Affairs Shall Redevelop Individualized Vocational Rehabilitation Plan
Section 2 · Sec. 2 ·
What this chapter is about
This part changes a law about veterans and jobs. Some veterans get a job training plan. The VA looks at that plan from time to time. After each look, the VA must make a choice. It can write a new plan with the veteran. Or it can say a new plan is not right.

What the document says
“Section 3107 of title 38, United States Code, is amended in subsection (b)-- (1) by striking "The Secretary shall review" and inserting "(1) The Secretary shall review"; (2) by striking the second sentence; and (3) by adding at the end the following new paragraph:”
The opening instruction of the section, and the only place it names the statute it works on. Three things happen in subsection (b) of section 3107 of title 38, United States Code. The words The Secretary shall review are struck and put back with the number (1) in front of them, which makes the sentence they begin a numbered paragraph. The second sentence of the subsection is struck. A new paragraph is added at the end. This Act does not state what the struck sentence said.
What the document actually says
“Section 3107 of title 38, United States Code, is amended in subsection (b)-- (1) by striking "The Secretary shall review" and inserting "(1) The Secretary shall review"; (2) by striking the second sentence; and (3) by adding at the end the following new paragraph:”
That sentence, in plain words
This part changes an old law. It gives the first line a number. It cuts out the line after it. Then it adds a new part at the end.
What this is about
Laws are split into numbered parts. Adding a new part means the old text needs a number too. This site does not say what the cut line said. That old law is not on this site.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
The document says “shall”Who acts: Secretary of Veterans AffairsHow: statuteSec. 2 in the PDF
What the document says
“On the basis of such review, the Secretary shall-- "(A) redevelop such plan with such veteran if the Secretary determines the achievement of the long-range rehabilitation goals for such veteran is-- "(i) no longer feasible due to changes in the employment handicap of the veteran; and "(ii) likelier under a different plan formulated under subsection (a); or”
The first branch of the paragraph section 2 adds to section 3107(b) of title 38, United States Code. It runs on the basis of such review, the review named in the paragraph the section numbered (1). Redevelopment is then required, and it is done with such veteran, if the Secretary determines two things about achieving the long-range rehabilitation goals: that it is no longer feasible due to changes in the employment handicap of the veteran, and that it is likelier under a different plan formulated under subsection (a). The two clauses are joined by and, so both have to hold. This Act does not state what subsection (a) provides.
What the document actually says
“On the basis of such review, the Secretary shall-- "(A) redevelop such plan with such veteran if the Secretary determines the achievement of the long-range rehabilitation goals for such veteran is-- "(i) no longer feasible due to changes in the employment handicap of the veteran; and "(ii) likelier under a different plan formulated under subsection (a); or”
That sentence, in plain words
The VA looks at the plan. Then it must write a new plan with the veteran. But only if two things are true. One, the old goals can no longer be met. Two, a new plan would work better.
What this is about
Some veterans get help to train for work. The plan sets goals. Health can change, and goals can slip out of reach. Then the VA must try again with a new plan.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

What the document says
“disapprove redevelopment of such plan if the Secretary determines such redevelopment is not appropriate.”
The second branch of the same added paragraph, and the last words of the Act. Where the Secretary determines that redevelopment of the plan is not appropriate, the Secretary disapproves it. The two branches are joined by or, so one of them follows a review. The Act sets no test of what is appropriate and names no route to contest the determination.
What the document actually says
“disapprove redevelopment of such plan if the Secretary determines such redevelopment is not appropriate.”
That sentence, in plain words
The VA can also say no to a new plan. It says no when a new plan is not right.
What this is about
There are just two paths after a check. Write a new plan, or turn one down. The VA picks one of them. The law does not say how to appeal.

What This Page Covers, and What It Leaves Out
Each thing the section does: the numbering of the sentence about the review, the striking of the sentence that followed it, and both branches of the new paragraph the section adds at the end.
Nothing in the section is left out. The renumbering in the first clause is mechanical, but it is recorded because the paragraph the section adds is numbered against it and reads on the review it numbers.
The section works by amending section 3107 of title 38, United States Code, and that statute is not indexed here. So the site does not record what subsection (b) said before this Act, what the struck second sentence contained, what the review in paragraph (1) covers, or what a plan formulated under subsection (a) is. This Act does not define employment handicap or long-range rehabilitation goals, and it sets no date on which the amendments begin to apply.
