References in Text
Section 241 of title 20, as in effect before enactment of the
Improving America's Schools Act of 1994, referred to in par. (1)(C),
means section 241 of Title 20, Education, prior to its repeal by Pub. L.
103-382, title III, Sec. 331(b), Oct. 20, 1994, 108 Stat. 3965.
Amendments
2002--Par. (1)(A). Pub. L. 107-110 substituted ``7801'' for
``8801''.
1994--Par. (1)(A). Pub. L. 103-382, Sec. 391(c)(4)(A), made
technical amendment to reference to section 8801 of title 20 to reflect
change in reference to corresponding section of original act.
Par. (1)(C). Pub. L. 103-382 directed two separate amendments of
par. (1)(C), the first, by section 391(c)(4)(B) of Pub. L. 103-382,
directed the insertion of ``or successor authority'' immediately after
``section 241 of title 20'', the second, by section 392(b)(2) of Pub. L.
103-382, directed the insertion (without reference to the first
amendment) of ``as in effect before enactment of the Improving America's
Schools Act of 1994'' immediately after ``section 241 of title 20,''.
Literal execution of the second amendment was not possible, as ``section
241 of title 20,'' was amended to read ``section 241 of title 20 or
successor authority,'' by the first amendment. Commas were editorially
inserted before and after the phrase added by the second amendment and
it was inserted immediately after ``section 241 of title 20'' to reflect
the probable intent of Congress.
Effective Date of 2002 Amendment
Amendment by Pub. L. 107-110 effective Jan. 8, 2002, except with
respect to certain noncompetitive programs and competitive programs, see
section 5 of Pub. L. 107-110, set out as an Effective Date note under
section 6301 of Title 20, Education.
