Summary
Civilian Travel Expenses Act of 1985 - Revises provisions regarding travel and subsistence expenses for Federal employees and consultants by replacing current per diem allowance rates with rates to be established by locality. Entitles an employee traveling on official business to a per diem allowance and appropriate travel expenses if such employee returns home, to the workplace, or an alternate location because of a personal emergency situation. Authorizes the Administrator of General Services to prescribe conditions under which an employee who serves in a law enforcement capacity may be provided a per diem allowance when occupying temporary living accommodations because of a threat to life or property resulting from the employee's assigned duties. Requires the Administrator to periodically collect information on agencies spending more than $5,000,000 annually on travel and transportation payments in order to review and develop an analysis of such payments. Declares that Postal Service employees transferred to an agency for permanent duty may be authorized travel expenses to the same extent as other transferred employees.
