PUBLIC LAW 97-35—AUG. 13, 1981 section 232(a)), but such product shall be reduced by the total sum of the unemployment insurance to which the worker was entitled (or would have been entitled if he had applied therefor) in the worker's first benefit period described in section 231(a)(3)(A). "(2) A trade readjustment allowance shall not be paid for any week after the 52-week period beginning with the first week following the first week in the period covered by the certification with respect to which the worker has exhausted (as determined for purposes of section 231(a)(3)(B)) all rights to that part of his unemployment insurance that is regular compensation. "(3) Notwithstanding paragraph (1), in accordance with regulations prescribed by the Secretary, payments may be made as trade readjustment allowances for up to 26 additional weeks in the 26-week period following the last week of entitlement to trade readjustment allowances otherwise payable under this chapter in order to assist the adversely affected worker to complete training approved for the worker under section 236. Payments for such additional weeks may be made only for weeks in such 26-week period during which the individual is engaged in such training and has not been determined under section 236(c) to be failing to make satisfactory progress in the training. "(b) A trade readjustment allowance may not be paid for an additional week specified in subsection (a)(3) if the adversely affected worker who would receive such allowance did not make a bona fide application to a training program approved by the Secretary under section 236 within 210 days after the date of the worker's first certification of eligibility to apply for adjustment assistance issued by the Secretary, or, if later, within 210 days after the date of the worker's total or partial separation referred to in section 231(a)(1). "(c) Amounts payable to an adversely affected worker under this part shall be subject to such adjustment on a week-to-week basis as may be required by section 232(b). "(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act or other Federal law, if the benefit year of a worker ends within an extended benefit period, the number of weeks of extended benefits that such worker would, but for this subsection, be entitled to in that extended benefit period shall be reduced (but not below zero) by the number of weeks for which the worker was entitled, during such benefit year, to trade readjustment allowances under this part. For purposes of this paragraph, the terms 'benefit year' and 'extended benefit period' shall have the same respective meanings given to them in the Federal-State Extended Unemployment Compensation Act of 1970.". (b) Section 204(a)(2) of the Federal-State Extended Unemployment Compensation Act of 1970 (26 U.S.C. 3304 note) is amended— (1) by striking out "or" at the end of clause (A); and (2) by inserting before the period at the end thereof the following: ", or (C) paid for any week with respect to which such benefits are not payable by reason of section 233(d) of the Trade Act of 1974".
