                By the authority vested in me as President by the

                of the Act, in order to provide funds appropriated to 
                carry out chapter 4 of part II of the Foreign 
                Assistance Act of 1961, as amended, to the Palestinian 
                Authority.

                You are directed to transmit this determination to the 
                Congress, with a report pursuant to section 650(d) of 
                the Act, and to publish the determination in the
