References in Text
This chapter, referred to in text, was in the original ``this
subtitle'', meaning subtitle E (Secs. 5401 to 5413, 5421 to 5423) of
title V of Pub. L. 100-418 which, in addition to enacting this chapter,
enacted section 4603a of this title and section 194b of Title 2, The
Congress. For complete classification of subtitle E to the Code, see
Tables.
Section 4906 of this title, referred to in par. (4), was in the
original ``section 3816'', meaning section 3816 of Pub. L. 100-418, and
was translated as if it read section 5406 of Pub. L. 100-418, to reflect
the probable intent of Congress, because section 3816 was the provision
which established the Data Bank in a predecessor version of H.R. 4848
(which became Pub. L. 100-418), Pub. L. 100-418 does not contain a
section 3816, and section 5406 of Pub. L. 100-418 is the provision
establishing the Data Bank.
