fiscal year for carrying out title X of the Public Health Service Act 
(42 U.S.C. 300 et seq.) may be made available to any family planning 
project under section 1001 of such title if any provider of services in 
the project knowingly provides contraceptive drugs or prescription 
devices to a minor, unless--
            (1) such provider of services has given actual written 
        notice to a custodial parent or custodial legal guardian of the 
        minor, notifying the parent or legal guardian of the intent to 
        provide the drugs or prescription devices, at least five 
        business days before providing the drugs or prescription 
        devices;
            (2) the minor has the written consent of a custodial parent 
        or custodial legal guardian to receive the drugs or 
        prescription devices;
            (3) the minor is emancipated under applicable State law; or
            (4) a court of competent jurisdiction has directed that the 
        minor may receive the drugs or prescription devices.
    (b) Certification of Compliance.--Each provider of services under 
section 1001 of title X of the Public Health Service Act shall each 
year certify to the Secretary of Health and Human Services compliance
