                Presidential Determination No. 2001-22 of July 26, 2001

                
Determination Pursuant to Section 2(c)(1) of the 
                Migration and Refugee Assistance Act of 1962, as 
                Amended

                Memorandum for the Secretary of State

                Pursuant to section 2(c)(1) of the Migration and 
                Refugee Assistance Act of 1962, as amended, 22 U.S.C. 
                2601(c)(1), I hereby determine that it is important to 
                the national interest that up to $27 million be made 
                available from the U.S. Emergency Refugee and Migration 
                Assistance Fund to meet unexpected urgent refugee and 
                migration needs, including those of refugees, displaced 
                persons, conflict victims, and other persons at risk 
                due to the situations in Guinea, Sierra Leone, Eritrea, 
                and Afghanistan. These funds may be used, as 
                appropriate, to provide contributions to international, 
                governmental, and nongovernmental organizations, and as 
                necessary, for administrative expenses of the Bureau of 
                Population, Refugees, and Migration. Of the $27 million 
                hereby determined, not more than $5 million shall be 
                reserved on a contingency basis in order to allow for 
                immediate United States response to unexpected urgent 
                refugee and migration needs.

                You are authorized and directed to inform the 
                appropriate committees of the Congress of this 
                determination and the obligation of funds under this 
                authority, and to arrange for the publication of this 
                memorandum in the Federal Register.

                    (Presidential Sig.)B

                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                    Washington, July 26, 2001.
