     congressional committees the certification described in 
     paragraph (2).
       (2) Certification.--The certification referred to in 
     paragraph (2) is a certification by the President that--

     Republic of China, and the United States has received 
     assurances that UNFPA will conduct no such activities during 
     the fiscal year for which the funds are to be made available; 
     or
       (B) during the 12 months preceding such certification there 
     have been no abortions as the result of coercion associated 
     with the family planning policies of the national government 
     or other governmental entities within the People's Republic 
     of China.
       (3) Definition.--As used in this subsection, the term 
     ``coercion'' includes physical duress or abuse, destruction 
     or confiscation of property, loss of means of livelihood, and

  Mr. COMBEST. Mr. Chairman, on rollcall No. 314, the Paul of Texas 
amendment, I was inadvertently detained. Had I been present, I would 
have voted ``yes.''
  Ms. PRYCE of Ohio. Mr. Chairman, I move that the Committee do now 
rise.
  The motion was agreed to.
  Accordingly, the Committee rose; and the Speaker pro tempore (Mr. 
Foley) having assumed the Chair, Mr. Calvert, Chairman pro tempore of 
the Committee of the Whole House on the State of the Union, reported 
that that Committee, having had under consideration the bill (H.R. 
2415) to enhance security of United States missions and personnel 
overseas, to authorize appropriations for the Department of State for 
fiscal year 2000, and for other purposes, had come to no resolution 
thereon.
