What the document says

“Notwithstanding the amendments made by this title, part 10 of subchapter C of chapter VII of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 379j-71 et seq.), as in effect on the day before the date of enactment of this Act, shall continue to be in effect with respect to assessing and collecting any fee required by such part for a fiscal year prior to fiscal year 2026.”

Without this clause the new text would govern the collection of fees that were set under the old text. The clause keeps the two apart.

What the document actually says

“Notwithstanding the amendments made by this title, part 10 of subchapter C of chapter VII of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 379j-71 et seq.), as in effect on the day before the date of enactment of this Act, shall continue to be in effect with respect to assessing and collecting any fee required by such part for a fiscal year prior to fiscal year 2026.”

That sentence, in plain words

For any year before 2026, the old words still apply. They govern the setting and taking of those fees.

What this is about

New rules can leave old bills in doubt. This says old bills follow the rules that were in force at the time.

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.

What This Page Covers, and What It Leaves Out

The one thing the section does: keep the old text in effect for fees for years before fiscal year 2026.

Nothing else. The section is one sentence.

The section names part 10 of subchapter C of chapter VII of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. That law is not indexed here, so this file does not say what the old rules were.
