Notes

[edit]
  1. Note: A Table of Contents was not provided in the original text; an abbreviated one has been added here strictly for navigational and editorial purposes. In the orginal text, Section 101. (found under <no designation>) came immediately after the Enacting Clause.
    • The correction rectifying the ommision of a TITLE I heading (as now reflected by TITLE I−OMNIBUS APPROPRIATIONS above) was inserted by Public Law 104-140, subsection (a) on May 2, 1996.
    • So in original, the 3 titles probably should have been designated DIVISION A, DIVISION B & DIVISION C instead.
  2. Note: The normal Enrollment requirements for this Act were waived by Public Law 104-129 on April 9, 1996.
    • This was a typeset print of the original hand enrollment as signed by the President on April 26, 1996. The text was printed without corrections. Footnotes indicate missing or illegible text in the original whenever possible.
