## Opinion text

TAMM, Circuit Judge,
concurring in part, dissenting in part:
I am in full agreement with the majority, for the reasons set forth in parts II and III of Judge Bazelon’s opinion, that the order of the district court should be reversed. I am unable to concur in part I of the majority opinion, however, because of my belief that standing to sue in federal court must be based on more than allegations of violations of procedural regulations by an agency. In my view, injury to an underlying substantive interest must be alleged. Thus, in this case, standing is based on alleged harm resulting from discrimination rather than alleged violation of procedural regulations by the Secretary of Treasury.
