"The b i l l i s modeled along the l i n e s of the Reorganization Act of 1939 and exempts 21 independent e s tablishments of the Government. The Board and the PDIC are included in the l i s t of exempt agencies.

HAny i9l reorganization plan under the b i l l becomes e f f e c t i v e upon the expiration of 60 days a f t e r the date on which i t i s transmitted to Congress provided that neither House of Congress passes a resolution expressing i t s d i s f a v o r o f the reorganization p l a n .
