REFERENCES IN TEXT
Section 241 of title 20, as in effect before enactment
of the Improving America’s Schools Act of 1994, re-
ferred to in par. (1)(C), means section 241 of Title 20,
Education, prior to its repeal by Pub. L. 103–382, title
III, § 331(b), Oct. 20, 1994, 108 Stat. 3965.
AMENDMENTS
2015—Par. (1)(A). Pub. L. 114–95 made technical
amendment to reference in original act which appears
in text as reference to section 7801 of title 20.
2002—Par. (1)(A). Pub. L. 107–110 substituted ‘‘7801’’
for ‘‘8801’’.
1994—Par. (1)(A). Pub. L. 103–382, § 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’’ imme-
diately 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 amend-
ment. 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.
