    Notice--Continuation of Sudan Emergency

    October 31, 2001

        On November 3, 1997, by Executive Order 13067, the President
    declared a national emergency with respect to Sudan pursuant to the
    International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701-1706) to
    deal with the unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security
    and foreign policy of the United States constituted by the actions and
    policies of the Government of Sudan, including continuing concern about
    its record on terrorism and the prevalence of human rights violations,
    including slavery, restrictions on religious freedom, and restrictions
    on political freedom. Because the actions and policies of the Government
    of Sudan continue to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the
    national security and foreign policy of the United States, the national
    emergency declared on November 3, 1997, and the measures adopted on that
    date to deal with that emergency must continue in effect beyond November
    3, 2001. Therefore, in accordance with section 202(d) of the National
    Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing for 1 year the
    national emergency with respect to Sudan.
        This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and
    transmitted to the Congress.
                                                    George W. Bush

     October 31, 2001.
