                                FOREWORD

                              ----------                              

    This volume of legislation and related material is part of 
a five volume set of laws and related material frequently 
referred to by the Committees on Foreign Relations of the 
Senate and Foreign Affairs of the House of Representatives, 
amended to date and annotated to show pertinent history or 
cross references.
    Volumes I (A and B), II (A and B), III and IV contain 
legislation and related material and are republished with 
amendments and additions on a regular basis. Volume V, which 
contains treaties and related material, was last updated 
through 2005.
    We wish to express our appreciation to Matthew C. Weed of 
the Foreign Affairs, Defense, and Trade Division of the 
Congressional Research Service of the Library of Congress and 
Suzanne Kayne of the U.S. Government Printing Office who 
prepared volume III of this year's compilation.
                                           John F. Kerry,
                          Chairman, Committee on Foreign Relations.
                                           Ileana Ros-Lehtinen,
                            Chairman, Committee on Foreign Affairs.

                            EXPLANATORY NOTE

                              ----------                              

    The body of statutory law set out in this volume was in 
force, as amended, at the end of 2008.
    This volume sets out ``session law'' as originally enacted 
by Congress and published by the Archivist of the United States 
as ``slip law'' and later in the series United States Statutes 
at Large (as subsequently amended, if applicable). Amendments 
are incorporated into the text and distinguished by a footnote. 
Session law is organized in this series by subject matter in a 
manner designed to meet the needs of the Congress.
    Although laws enacted by Congress in the area of foreign 
relations are also codified by the Law Revision Counsel of the 
House of Representatives, typically in title 22 United States 
Code, those codifications are not positive law and are not, in 
most instances, the basis of further amendment by the Congress. 
Cross references to the United States Code are included as 
footnotes for the convenience of the reader.
    All Executive orders and State Department delegations of 
authority are codified and in force as of December 31, 2008.
    Corrections may be sent to Matthew C. Weed at the Library 
of Congress, Congressional Research Service, Washington, D.C., 
20540-7460, or by e-mail at [email protected].

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    \3\ Public Law 93-94 (87 Stat. 314) struck out ``who shall also 
serve as alternate for the governor of the bank'' and inserted in lieu 
thereof ``and an alternate for the governor of the Bank''.

1979.

    Sec. 4.\6\ (a) In order to coordinate the policies and 
operations of the representatives of the United States on the 
Fund and the Bank and of all agencies of the Government which 
make or participate in making foreign loans or which engage in

referred to as the ``Council''), consisting of the Secretary of 
the Treasury, as Chairman, the Secretary of State, the 
Secretary of Commerce, the Chairman of the Board of Governors 
of the Federal Reserve System,\7\ the President of the Export-
Import Bank of Washington, and during such period as the

Corporation Act, page 42. See sec. 4 of the International Development 
Association Act and sec. 4 of the Inter-American Development Bank Act, 
pages 51 and 62, respectively.
    For revisions of functions and status of the Council, see 
Reorganization Plan No. 4 of 1965 (sec. 16, sec. 3(a) and sec. 3(b)). 
See also Executive Order 11269.
    \7\ The material following ``Federal Reserve System,'' read as 
follows in the original Act: ``and the Chairman of the Board of 
Trustees of the Export-Import Bank of Washington''. Sec. 4(a) has been 
amended as follows:
    (1) The Economic Corporation Act of 1948 (62 Stat. 141), sec. 106 
of which amended sec. 4(a) so as to include the Administrator for 
Economic Cooperation ``during such period as the Economic Cooperation 
Administration shall continue to exist'';
    (2) The Mutual Security Act of 1951 (65 Stat. 378), sec. 501(e)(2) 
of which amended sec. 4(a), by striking out ``Economic Cooperation 
Administration'' and ``Administrator for Economic Cooperation'' and 
inserting in lieu thereof ``Mutual Security Agency'' and ``Director for 
Mutual Security'', respectively;
    (3) Reorganization Plan No. 5 of 1953, effective June 30, 1953 (67 
Stat. 637), sec. 7 of which abolished the function of the Chairman of 
the Board of Directors of the Export-Import Bank of Washington of being 
a member of the National Advisory Council;
    (4) Reorganization Plan No. 7 of 1953, effective August 1, 1953 (67

Council; and
    (5) Public Law 83-570 (68 Stat. 677, 678), sec. 2 of which inserted 
the part of the text quoted above following ``the Federal Reserve

    Executive Order 10610 (20 F.R. 3179; effective July 1, 1955), 
abolished the Foreign Operations Administration and the Office of 
Director of the Foreign Operations Administration, and the membership 
of the Director of the Foreign Operations Administration on the 
National Advisory Council thereby expired by operation of law effective 
on that date.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    (b)(1) The Council, after consultation with the 
representatives of the United States on the Fund and the Bank, 
shall recommend to the President general policy directives for 
the guidance of the representatives of the United States on the 
Fund and the Bank.
    (2) The Council shall advise and consult with the President 
and the representatives of the United States on the Fund and 
the Bank on major problems arising in the administration of the 
Fund and the Bank.

otherwise, so far as is practicable, the policies and 
operations of the representatives of the United States on the 
Fund and the Bank, the Export-Import Bank of Washington and all 
other agencies of the Government to the extent that they make 
or participate in the making of foreign loans or engage in 
foreign, financial, exchange or monetary transactions.
    (4) Whenever, under the Articles of Agreement of the Fund 
or the Articles of Agreement of the Bank, the approval, consent 
or agreement of the United States is required before an act may 
be done by the respective institutions, the decision as to 
whether such approval, consent, or agreement, shall be given or 
refused shall (to the extent such decision is not prohibited by 
section 5 of this Act) be made by the Council, under the 
general direction of the President. No governor, executive 
director, or alternate representing the United States shall 
vote in favor of any waiver of condition under article V, 
section 4, or in favor of any declaration of the United States 
dollar as a scarce currency under article VII, section 3, of 
the Articles of Agreement of the Fund, without prior approval 
of the Council.
    (5) \8\ The Council shall make such reports and 
recommendations to the President as he may from time to time 
request, or as the Council may consider necessary to more 
effectively or efficiently accomplish the purposes of this Act 
or the purposes for which the Council is created.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    \8\ Sec. 541 of the International Development and Finance Act of 
1989 (Public Law 101-240; 103 Stat. 2518) consolidated several 
reporting requirements into new secs. 1701 through 1703 and titles 
XVIII and XIX of the International Financial Institutions Act and 
repealed duplicative requirements in other legislation. Sec. 541(d)(1) 
of the International Development and Finance Act of 1989 (Public Law 
101-240; 103 Stat. 2518) repealed clauses (5) and (6), and redesignated 
clauses (7) and (8) as clauses (5) and (6), respectively. Clauses (5) 
and (6) formerly read as follows:
    ``(5) The Council shall transmit to the President and to the 
Congress an annual report with respect to the participation of the 
United States in the Fund and Bank.
    ``(6) Each such report shall contain such data concerning the 
operations and policies of the Fund and Bank, such recommendations 
concerning the Fund and Bank, and such other data and material as the 
Council may deem appropriate.''.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    (6) \8\ The general policy objectives of the guidance of 
the United States Executive Director of the Bank shall take 
into account the effect that development assistance loans have 
upon individual industry sectors and international commodity 
markets--
          (A) to minimize projected adverse impacts; and
          (B) to avoid, wherever possible, government 
        subsidization of production and exports of 
        international commodities without regard to economic 
        conditions in the markets for such commodities.
    (c) The representatives of the United States on the Fund 
and the Bank, and the Export-Import Bank of Washington (and all 
other agencies of the Government to the extent that they make 
or participate in the making of foreign loans or engage in 
foreign financial, exchange or monetary transactions) shall 
keep the Council fully informed of their activities and shall 
provide the Council with such further information or data in 
their possession as the Council may deem necessary to the 
appropriate discharge of its responsibilities under this Act.

           certain acts not to be taken without authorization

    Sec. 5.\9\ Unless Congress by law authorizes such action, 
neither the President nor any person or agency shall on behalf 
of the United States (a) request or consent to any change in 
the quota of the United States under article III, section 2(a), 
of the Articles of Agreement of the Fund; (b) propose a par 
value for the United States dollar under paragraph 2, paragraph 
4, or paragraph 10 of schedule C of the Articles of Agreement 
of the Fund; (c) propose any change in the par value of the 
United States dollar under paragraph 6 of schedule C of the 
Articles of Agreement of the Fund, or approve any general 
change in par values under paragraph 11 of schedule C; (d) 
subscribe to additional shares of stock under article II, 
section 3, of the Articles of Agreement of the Bank; (e) accept 
any amendment under article XXVIII of the Articles of Agreement 
of the Fund on article VIII of the Articles of Agreement of the 
Bank; (f) make any loan to the Fund or the Bank; or (g) \10\ 
approve any disposition of Fund gold, unless the Secretary 
certifies to the Congress that such disposition is necessary 
for the Fund to restitute gold to its members, or for the Fund 
to provide liquidity that will enable the Fund to meet member 
country claims on the Fund or to meet threats to the systemic 
stability of the international financial system. Unless 
Congress by law authorizes such action, no governor or 
alternate appointed to represent the United States shall vote 
for an increase of capital stock of the Bank under article II, 
section 2, of the Articles of Agreement of the Bank, if such 
increase involves an increased subscription on the part of the 
United States.\11\ Neither the President nor any person or 
agency shall, on behalf of the United States, consent to any 
borrowing (other than borrowing from a foreign government or 
other official public source) by the Fund or funds denominated 
in United States dollars, unless the Secretary of the Treasury 
transmits a notice of such proposed borrowing to both Houses of 
the Congress at least 60 days prior to the date on which such 
borrowing is scheduled to occur.\12\

amendments to the Articles of Agreement of the IMF, the first sentence 
of sec. 5, as provided for by sec. 3 of Public Law 94-564, was amended 
and restated. It formerly read as follows:
    ``Unless Congress by law authorizes such action, neither the 
President nor any person or agency shall on behalf of the United States 
(a) request or consent to any change in the quota of the United States 
under article III, section 2, of the Articles of Agreement of the Fund; 
(b) propose or agree to any change in the par value of the United 
States dollar under article IV, section 5, or article XX, section 4, of 
the Articles of Agreement of the Fund, or approve any general change in 
par values under article IV, section 7; (c) subscribe to additional 
shares of stock under article II, section 3, of the Articles of 
Agreement of the Bank; (d) accept any amendment under article XVII of 
the Articles of Agreement of the Fund or article VIII of the Articles 
of Agreement of the Bank; (e) make any loan to the Fund or the Bank.''.
    \10\ Clause (g), which had been added as part of the amendment 
described in footnote 9, was further amended by sec. 4(a)(1) of Public 
Law 95-147 (91 Stat. 1228) to read ``approve either the disposition of 
more than 25 million ounces of Fund gold for the benefit of the Trust 
Fund established by the Fund on May 6, 1976, or the establishment of 
any additional trust fund whereby resources of the International 
Monetary Fund would be used for the special benefit of a single member, 
or of a particular segment of the membership, of the Fund.'' Although 
it never became effective, the original clause (g) read as follows:
    ``(g) approve the establishment of any additional trust fund, for 
the special benefit of a single member, or of a particular segment of 
the membership, of the Fund.''.
    Sec. 504(d)(1) of Public Law 106-113 (113 Stat. 1501A-317) further 
amended clause (g) by striking the clause as read above and inserting 
``approve any disposition of Fund gold, unless the Secretary certifies 
to the Congress that such disposition is necessary for the Fund to 
restitute gold to its members, or for the Fund to provide liquidity 
that will enable the Fund to meet member country claims on the Fund or 
to meet threats to the systemic stability of the international 
financial system.''.
    \11\ Sec. 1(2) of Public Law 89-126 (79 Stat. 519) inserted ``, if 
such increase involves an increased subscription on the part of the 
United States''.
    \12\ Sec. 811 of Public Law 98-181 (97 Stat. 1274) added this 
sentence.

822a),\14\ is amended to read as follows:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    \14\ Public Law 97-258 recodified title 31, U.S.C., and sec. 822a 
became sec. 5302. Public Law 97-258, in redesignating sec. 822a as sec.

the balance \16\ of the subscription of the United States to 
the Fund not provided for in subsection (a) and to pay the

$8,675,000,000 \16\ of the proceeds of any securities hereafter 
issued under the Second Liberty Bond Act, as amended, and the

II, section 7(i), of the Articles of Agreement of the Bank, is 
authorized and directed to issue special notes of the United 
States from time to time at par and to deliver such notes to 
the Fund and the Bank in exchange for dollars to the extent 
permitted by the respective Articles of Agreement. The special

authority and subject to the provisions of the Second Liberty 
Bond Act, as amended, and the purposes for which securities may 
be issued under that Act are extended to include the purposes 
for which special notes are authorized and directed to be 
issued under the subsection, but such notes shall bear no 
interest, shall be non-negotiable, and shall be payable on 
demand of the Fund or the Bank, as the case may be. The face 
amount of special notes issued to the Fund under the authority 
of this subsection and outstanding at any one time shall not 
exceed in the aggregate the amount of the subscription of the 
United States actually paid to the Fund and the dollar 
equivalent of currencies and gold which the United States shall

          (1) United States representatives to the Fund shall 
        recommend and shall work for changes in Fund

                (B) of paragraph (1); and
          (B) the United States Executive Director of the Fund 
        shall take into account the analysis reviewed pursuant 
        to subparagraph (A) of this paragraph in voting on

          (3) United States representatives to the Fund, to the 
        Bank and to other appropriate institutions shall work 
        toward improving coordination among these institutions 
        and, in particular, shall work toward formulation of 
        programs in association with economic adjustment 
        programs supported by Fund resources which (A) will, 
        among other things, promote employment, investment, 
        real income per capita, improvements in income 
        distribution, and the objectives of social programs 
        such as health, housing, and education, and (B) will,

        borrowing country's need to improve its balance of 
        payments position within a reasonable period, 
        ameliorate any adverse effects of economic adjustment 
        programs on the poor;
          (4) United States representatives to the Fund and the 
        Bank shall seek amendments to decisions on policies on 
        the use of Fund and Bank resources to provide that 
        where countries are seeking Extended Fund Facility or

        and Bank will coordinate their financing activities in

                resources, and

                that will facilitate development of a 
                productive economic base and greater attainment 
                of basic human needs objectives over the longer 
                term; and
          (5) United States representatives to the Fund and the
