                Presidential Determination No. 2003-30 of August 7, 
                2003

                
Imposition and Waiver of Sanctions Under Section 
                604 of the Foreign Relations Authorization Act (Public 
                Law 107-228)

                Memorandum for the Secretary of State

                Consistent with the authority contained in section 604 
                of the FY 2003 Foreign Relations Authorization Act 
                (Public Law 107-228) (the ``Act''), and with reference 
                to the determinations set out in the report to the 
                Congress transmitted herewith, consistent with section 
                603 of that Act, regarding noncompliance by the PLO and 
                the Palestinian Authority with certain commitments, I 
                hereby impose the sanction set out in section 604(a)(2) 
                ``Downgrade in Status of the PLO Office in the United 
                States.'' This sanction is imposed for a period of 180 
                days from the date hereof or until such time as the 
                next report required by section 603 of the Act is 
                transmitted to the Congress, whichever is later. You 
                are authorized and directed to transmit to the 
                appropriate congressional committees the initial report 
                described in section 603 of the Act.

                Furthermore, I hereby determine that it is in the 
                national security interest of the United States to 
                waive that sanction, pursuant to section 604 of the 
                Act. This waiver shall be effective for a period of 180 
                days from the date hereof or until such time as the 
                next report required by section 603 of the Act is 
                transmitted to the Congress, whichever is later. You 
                are hereby authorized and directed to transmit this 
                determination to the Congress and to publish it in the 
                Federal Register.

                    (Presidential Sig.)B

                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                    Washington, August 7, 2003.
