H. R. 4274

Text of Legislation

Link to House Committee Report 635

you will find the report.

I do not understand some of the passages or phrases in the report.

> The Committee is encouraged by the initiation of a
> core center program and urges NINDS to expand the program.

What is the core center program?

> In addition, the Institute is urged to utilize all other available
> mechanisms, as appropriate, including requests for applications,
> program announcements, and extended funding of selected
> investigators now working in the field, to further implement the
> 1997 Morris K. Udall Parkinson's Research Act.

What is meant by "further"?  What has been implemented thus far?

> The Committee requests NINDS to report on its progress in
> implementing the Act at its fiscal year 2000 appropriations
> hearing.

Does the report have the same force of law as H.R.4274 will when it
is enacted?
