This authorization was made subject to the following provision: Funds may not be obligated or expended for the procurement of a lead minesweeper hunter ship or a partially outfitted hull of a minesweeper hunter ship from a foreign country until the Secre- tary of the Navy has certified to the Congress in writing (A) that purchase of up to two foreign- built ships responds to an urgent national security requirement; (B) that no United States ship- builder has demonstrated the ca- pability, or that no shipbuilder can demonstrate the ability to ac- quire that capability to meet that requirement in a timely fashion. In explaining its action the Senate committee stated: Rather than design a wholly new ship, with all the delay and risk that course would entail, the com- mittee recommends the Secretary of the Navy be authorized to use up to $100 million in unobligated prior year funds from the MSH program to acquire a European design capable of meeting our MSH mission. This initiative would add near term minehunting capability to our fleet at a well defined cost and low risk. The committee expects that fol- low-on ships of whatever design the Secretary selects will be built in quantity in the United States. To this end, the committee has recommended bill language au- thorizing use of prior year funds to acquire a lead ship or parts thereof for completion in the United States. One additional partially outfitted hull may also be procured to facilitate transfer of the manufacturing technology to U.S. shipbuilders. The committee recognizes the customary prohibition on funding the construction of ships abroad and grants a one time exception for the lead ship and one partial follow hull so that a rapid build up of MSH force levels can be achieved. Similar language had been drafted by the House committee prior to full committee mark-up. Efforts by Congressman Davis (R- Miss.) succeeded in deleting this language. Instead, the House com- mittee recommends that the Navy convene a NATO study group to assess "ways in which NATO na- tions can act together to combat the mine warfare threat." The issue of buying existing MSH ships from foreign yards will be tak- en up in House/Senate conference. Meanwhile the MSH—which hardly seems like the most complex ship (continued) 32 Maritime Reporter/Engineering News
