                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.
