References in Text

The Final Act of the Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe, referred to in text, means part four of the Helsinki Declaration which deals with follow-up to the Conference and possible steps to encourage compliance with its purposes and undertakings. The Declaration was signed on August 1, 1975 by the nine members of the European Economic Community and the 35 participants to the Conference included all the European States, both Communist (except Albania) and non-Communist, the United States, Canada, and several non-participating Mediterranean states. The Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe is now called the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe.

Amendments

1991-Pub. L. 102–138, §171(2), which directed the striking out of "the first one to be submitted six months after June 3, 1976" after "report", was executed by striking that language after "report," to reflect the probable intent of Congress.

Pub. L. 102–138, §171(1), substituted "an annual report" for "a semiannual report".
