#' Data on policy area allocations
#' 
#' This dataset includes data on policy area allocations (1958-2021). There is
#' one observation per policy area allocation per Commission (i.e., one
#' observation per policy area per Commissioner per Commission). A new
#' observation is created every time a change in the portfolio of a
#' Commissioner leads to a change in who oversees a policy area. There can be
#' multiple observations per individual per Commission if an individual
#' oversees multiple policy areas or if the individual's portfolio changes
#' during the Commission. Policy area allocations do not span Commissions. If
#' a Commissioner oversees a policy area for more than one Commission, there
#' will be multiple observations, one for each Commission. The dataset
#' indicates the start and end dates of each policy allocation.
