Practice question: Administrative Agencies

Multiple Choice Hard

Practice question

A military-linked national office performs a legally assigned civilian licensing function. The matter does not relate exclusively to Armed Forces personnel. Officials invoke Section 1 as excluding every activity merely because the office has a military connection. Which is best?
  1. Any military connection conclusively supplies a blanket exclusion.
  2. Civilian licensing can never be an agency function.
  3. A uniform automatically repeals Book VII.
  4. The express personnel-matter qualification must be applied; military connection alone does not establish that particular exception.
  5. The office may decide constitutional scope by private contract.
