in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

The Secretary of Defense may obligate appropriations only as this section permits. It sets the applicable limitation and exception.

To prevent fiscal-year overdrafts and deficiencies, appropriations to the Department of Defense or a military department, and reimbursements to them, may be obligated and spent only at scheduled obligation rates or changes approved by the Secretary of Defense. This does not bar the Department from incurring a deficiency that a law authorizes it to incur.
