                                 AN ACT


 
  To provide for the International Organizations Immunities Act to be 
    extended to the Office of the High Representative in Bosnia and 
      Herzegovina and the International Civilian Office in Kosovo.

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled,

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Extending Immunities to the Office 
of the High Representative in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the 
International Civilian Office in Kosovo Act of 2010''.

SEC. 2. AUTHORITY TO EXTEND THE PROVISIONS OF THE INTERNATIONAL 
              ORGANIZATIONS IMMUNITIES ACT TO THE OFFICE OF THE HIGH 
              REPRESENTATIVE IN BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA AND THE 
              INTERNATIONAL CIVILIAN OFFICE IN KOSOVO.

    The International Organizations Immunities Act (22 U.S.C. 288 et 
seq.) is amended by adding at the end the following new section:
    ``Sec. 17.  The provisions of this title may be extended to the 
Office of the High Representative in Bosnia and Herzegovina (and to its 
officers and employees) or the International Civilian Office in Kosovo 
(and to its officers and employees) in the same manner, to the same 
extent, and subject to the same conditions, as such provisions may be 
extended to a public international organization in which the United 
States participates pursuant to any treaty or under the authority of 
any Act of Congress authorizing such participation or making an 
appropriation for such participation. Any such extension may provide 
for the provisions of this title to continue to extend to the Office of 
the High Representative in Bosnia and Herzegovina (and to its officers 
and employees) or the International Civilian Office in Kosovo (and to 
its officers and employees) after that Office has been dissolved.''.

SEC. 3. BUDGET COMPLIANCE.

    The budgetary effects of this Act, for the purpose of complying 
with the Statutory Pay-As-You-Go Act of 2010, shall be determined by 
reference to the latest statement titled ``Budgetary Effects of PAYGO 
Legislation'' for this Act, submitted for printing in the Congressional 
Record by the Chairman of the House Budget Committee, provided that 
such statement has been submitted prior to the vote on passage.

            Passed the House of Representatives May 19, 2010.

            Attest:

                                            LORRAINE C. MILLER,

                                                                 Clerk.
