Authorizes appropriations. Authorizes the Secretary to make payments for Department use of space or services from funds appropriated to the Department for construction (other than grants for construction). Extends through December 31, 1996, the authority of the Department to enter into enhanced-use leases (leasing unused Department property to others). Increases from $2,000,000 to $3,000,000 the Department cost threshold for consideration: (1) of a project as a major medical facility project; and (2) of a parking facility construction, alteration, or acquisition project as a major medical facility project.
