The Commission has a chair and two members, with different full-time and part-time appointment and pay rules. Terms generally last three years, and existing members in 1980 received a transition rule.
(a) The Commission consists of a Chairman* and two members. The President appoints the Chairman, with the Senate's advice and consent. The Chairman serves full time for three years and is paid at the rate for level V of the Executive Schedule under section 5316 of title 5. (b) The President appoints the other members, also with the Senate's advice and consent. They serve part time and are paid per day at the level-V daily rate for each day they perform the Commission's official business as the Chairman directs. Each member is reimbursed for travel expenses, including a daily subsistence allowance, as section 5703 of title 5 authorizes for people in Government service employed intermittently. (c) The Chairman's and members' terms last three years. But the first three appointments after this subsection was enacted ended, respectively, on September 30, 1982, September 30, 1981, and September 30, 1980. An incumbent may continue serving until a successor takes office. (d) Despite subsections (a), (b), and (c), members of the Foreign Claims Settlement Commission serving on March 14, 1980, continue serving in the same capacities until their appointed terms expire.
The Commission shall be composed of a Chairman and two members. The Chairman shall be appointed by the President, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, to serve on a full-time basis for a term of three years, and compensated at the rate provided for level V of the Executive Schedule under section 5316 of title 5.
The other members of the Commission shall be appointed by the President, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, and serve on a part-time basis, and be compensated on a per diem basis at a rate of compensation equivalent to the daily rate for level V of the Executive Schedule under section 5316 of title 5 for each day that such member is employed in the actual performance of official business of the Commission as may be directed by the Chairman. Each member shall be reimbursed for travel expenses, including per diem in lieu of subsistence, as authorized by section 5703 of title 5 for persons in Government service employed intermittently.
The terms of Office of the Chairman and members of the Commission shall be for three years, except the Chairman and members first appointed after the enactment of this subsection shall be appointed to terms ending respectively September 30, 1982, September 30, 1981, and September 30, 1980. The incumbent of any such office may continue to serve until a successor takes office.
Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections (a), (b), and (c) of this section, members of the Foreign Claims Settlement Commission who are serving on March 14, 1980, shall continue to serve in their same capacities until the expiration of the terms to which they were appointed.
