Dear Mr. Speaker:    (Dear Mr. President:)

Consistent with the Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq
Resolution (Public Law 102-1 as amended by Public Law 106-113) and as part
of my effort to keep the Congress fully informed, I am reporting on the
status of efforts to obtain Iraq's compliance with the resolutions adopted
by the United Nations Security Council.  My last report, consistent with
Public Law 102-1, was dated July 17, 2000.  I shall continue to keep the
Congress informed about this important issue.

                              Sincerely,




                              WILLIAM J. CLINTON
