[Federal Register Volume 61, Number 212 (Thursday, October 31, 1996)] [Presidential Documents] [Page 56107] From the Federal Register Online via the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] [FR Doc No: 96-28108] Presidential Documents Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 212 / Thursday, October 31, 1996 / Presidential Documents ___________________________________________________________________ Title 3-- The President [[Page 56107]] Notice of October 29, 1996 Continuation of Iran Emergency On November 14, 1979, by Executive Order 12170, the President declared a national emergency to deal with the threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States constituted by the situation in Iran. Notices of the continuation of this national emergency have been transmitted annually by the President to the Congress and the Federal Register. The most recent notice appeared in the Federal Register on November 2, 1995. Because our relations with Iran have not yet returned to normal, and the process of implementing the January 19, 1981, agreements with Iran is still underway, the national emergency declared on November 14, 1979, must continue in effect beyond November 14, 1996. Therefore, in accordance with section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing the national emergency with respect to Iran. This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and transmitted to the Congress. (Presidential Sig.)THE WHITE HOUSE, October 29, 1996.
