President. in answer to the question posed by the Senator from California . it is the intent of section 4 as amended. that the President keep the Congress fully and currently informed regarding the use of funds and exercise of activities carried out under the act. Such Information would include programs and activities affecting schools or being carried out in schools. The Committee was very much aware of the potential refugee impact on schools. Therefore. the committee would expect the Presidents reports made pursuant to section 4 to cover such programs and proposals that would affect schools. Let me also point out that in our committee report on S. 1661. on page 8. we have specified thatThe Committee anticipates that HEW will develop procedures to insure that local communities will not be adversely affected by the resettlement of refugees. Therefore. the committee expects to follow the Presidents reports very closely. and should information indicate that schools are suffering under the burden of schooling refugee children. the Congress can act accordingly at a future date.
