FOOD AND NUTRITION SERVICE FOOD STAMP PROGRAM For an additional amount for making benefit payments to individuals under the Food Stamp Act, for unanticipated costs incurred for the current fiscal year, $200,000,000, and in addition up to $1,300,000,000 shall be available only to the extent an official budget request, for a specific dollar amount, is transmitted to the Congress: Provided, That funds provided herein shall remain available until September 30, 1992. PUBLIC LAW 480 Title I of the Public Law 480 program allowed for the repayment 7 USC I736e of loans for the sale of agricultural commodities in foreign or local '^°^' currencies until December 31, 1971. Since that time, until the law was changed in the 1985 farm bill, all sales have been on dollar credit terms. In view of the present financial situation, it is impossible for many countries to repay their loans in dollars. Therefore, the President may use the authority in section 411 and section 604 of the Agricultural Trade Development and Assistance Act of 1954 to renegotiate the payment on Public Law 480 debt in eligible countries in Latin America, the Caribbean and sub-Saharan Africa.
