Sec. 2834. Participation in Department of State housing pools

    (a) The Secretary concerned may enter into an agreement with the 
Secretary of State under which the Secretary of State agrees to provide 
housing and related services for personnel under the jurisdiction of the 
Secretary concerned who are assigned to duty in a foreign country if the 
Secretary concerned determines--
        (1) that there is a shortage of adequate housing in the area of 
    the foreign country in which such personnel are assigned to duty; 
    and
        (2) that participation in the Department of State housing pool 
    is the most cost-effective means of providing housing for such 
    personnel.

The Secretary concerned shall reimburse the Secretary of State, as 
provided in the agreement, for housing and related services furnished 
personnel under the jurisdiction of the Secretary concerned.
    (b) The maximum lease amounts specified in section 2828(e)(1) of 
this title for the rental of family housing in foreign countries shall 
not apply to housing made available to the Department of Defense under 
this section. To the extent that the lease amount for units of housing 
made available under this subsection exceeds such maximum lease amounts, 
such units shall not be counted in applying the limitation contained in 
such section on the number of units of family housing for which the 
Secretary concerned may waive such maximum lease amounts.
