    Removal under section 7532 of this title does not affect the right 
of an individual so removed to seek or accept employment in an agency of 
the United States other than the agency from which removed. However, the 
appointment of an individual so removed may be made only after the head 
of the agency concerned has consulted with the Office of Personnel 
Management. The Office, on written request of the head of the agency or 
the individual so removed, may determine whether the individual is 
eligible for employment in an agency other than the agency from which 
removed.
