On the recordFebruary 24, 1994
we have one further clarification. The House section-by-section analysis stated that by not restoring the term ``a'' prior to the word ``court'' in section 4283B, we did not intend to restore the standard set forth in the Shute decision. This comment is not only wrong with regard to our intent, but also incorrect with regard to the statute prior to the amendment in the Oceans Act of 1992. I ask Senator Hollings, is this his understanding as well?
