That Is found in section 2(c) (B) in this bill. The committee was very sensitive to that point. Second. that in view of the fact that some of these refugees may have some resources of their own. the administration of the measure should be devoted to those "who are in urgent need of assistance for the essentials of life." That is a pretty strict definition. That is found in section 3. which adds to the definition of refugee already contained in the Migration and Refugee Assistance Act. The fundamental thrust of that act is that -a person is not a refugee or persecutee who should or wishes to return to his place of origin. So that issue is covered. Finally. the consultation by the President is called for in section 4 as well as adequate reports to the various committees.
