The audit covers how often such items are denied entry into the sterile area

To amend the Bottles and Breastfeeding Equipment Screening Act to require hygienic handling of breast milk and baby formula by security screening personnel of the Transportation Security Administration and personnel of private security companies providing security screening, and for other purposes, section 2, Sec. 2. Written by .

The audit covers how often such items are denied entry into the sterile area

The document says “shallWho acts: Inspector General of the Department of Homeland SecurityHow: reportSec. 2 in the PDF
What the document says

“the rate at which such items are denied entry into the sterile area (as such term is defined in section 1540.5 of title 49, Code of Federal Regulations).”

To amend the Bottles and Breastfeeding Equipment Screening Act to require hygienic handling of breast milk and baby formula by security screening personnel of the Transportation Security Administration and personnel of private security companies providing security screening, and for other purposes, Sec. 2

The second further thing the audit is to include: the rate at which the items named are denied entry into the sterile area. The Act does not define the sterile area. It points to the definition at section 1540.5 of title 49, Code of Federal Regulations, which is not indexed here.

What the document actually says

“the rate at which such items are denied entry into the sterile area (as such term is defined in section 1540.5 of title 49, Code of Federal Regulations).”

To amend the Bottles and Breastfeeding Equipment Screening Act to require hygienic handling of breast milk and baby formula by security screening personnel of the Transportation Security Administration and personnel of private security companies providing security screening, and for other purposes, Sec. 2
That sentence, in plain words

The audit also has to count how often these items get turned away. The place they are kept out of has a set name.

What this is about

That name is the sterile area of an airport. A book of federal rules says what it means. This law points to that book and stops there.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
