Prohibits any change in the standard Federal regional or subregional office structure or policy as established by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) circular A-105 of April 4, 1974, except by Act of Congress. Allows combinations of standard Federal regions approved pursuant to such circular before January 1, 1984, to be continued without specific approval by Act of Congress.

Requires the Director of OMB to wait at least 90 days after notifying Congress of an agency's request for approval of certain regional or subregional organization plans before approving such a plan.
