    Message to the Congress Transmitting the Notice on Continuation of
    Haitian Emergency
    September 30, 1993

    To the Congress of the United States:
        Section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d))
    provides for the automatic termination of a national emergency unless,
    prior to the anniversary date of its declaration, the President
    publishes in the Federal Register and transmits to the Congress a notice
    stating that the emergency is to continue in effect beyond the
    anniversary date. In accordance with this provision, I have sent the
    enclosed notice, stating that the Haitian emergency is to continue in
    effect beyond October 4, 1993, to the Federal Register for publication.
        The crisis between the United States and Haiti that led to the
    declaration on October 4, 1991, of a national emergency has not been
    resolved. While substantial progress has been made toward restoring
    democracy pursuant to United Nations Security Council Resolution 861,
    all necessary conditions to that restoration have not yet been met.
    Multilateral sanctions have been suspended but not terminated. Political
    conditions in Haiti continue, therefore, to be of considerable concern
    to the United States. For these reasons, I have determined that it is
    necessary to retain the authority to apply economic sanctions to ensure
    the restoration and security of the democratically elected Government of
    Haiti.

                                                          William J. Clinton

    The White House,
    September 30, 1993.
