    In subsection (a), the words ``a bureau in the Department of the 
Treasury'' are added for clarity and consistency in chapter 3 of the 
revised title.
    In subsection (b), the first sentence is substituted for the words 
before the first comma because of the source provisions restated in 
section 321(c) of the revised title. Clause (1) is substituted for 
``subject to the direction of the Secretary of the Treasury'' for 
consistency in the revised title and with other titles of the United 
States Code. The words ``and be responsible'' are omitted as being 
included in ``reports directly to'' and because of section 301 of the 
revised title.
