June 29, 2004

Memorandum for the Secretary of State, the Secretary of Defense, the 
Director of the Office of Management and Budget

Subject: Administration of Certain Appropriations Relating to Iraq

    By the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of 
the United States of America, including section 632 of the Foreign 
Assistance Act of 1961, as amended (22 U.S.C. 2392), I hereby direct as 
follows:
    1. The unobligated balances as of the end of June 30, 2004, of the 
funds appropriated to the President under the heading, ``Operating 
Expenses of the Coalition Provisional Authority,'' in the Emergency 
Supplemental Appropriations Act for Defense and for the Reconstruction 
of Iraq and Afghanistan, 2004 (Public Law 108-106) and any funds 
appropriated to the President under that heading in any Act enacted 
subsequent to Public Law 108-106 are transferred to the Secretary of 
State. Such amounts shall exclude those made available to the Inspector 
General of the Coalition Provisional Authority, and the amount 
reapportioned to ``Operating Expenses of the Coalition Provisional 
Authority'' on June 25, 2004. The Secretary of State shall ensure use of 
such funds in a manner consistent with Presidential guidance concerning 
United States Government operations in Iraq.
    2. Effective at the end of June 30, 2004, this memorandum supersedes 
paragraph 1 of the Presidential Memorandum entitled, ``Transfer of Funds 
Appropriated to the President under the heading Operating Expenses of 
the Coalition Provisional Authority, and Delegation of the Functions of 
the President under the heading Iraq Relief and Reconstruction Fund, in 
the Emergency Supplemental Appropriations Act for Defense and for the 
Reconstruction of Iraq and Afghanistan, 2004'' (December 5, 2003).
    The Secretary of State is authorized and directed to publish this 
memorandum in the Federal Register.
