                    By virtue of the authority vested in me as President by 
                    the Constitution and the laws of the United States,

                    sections of the International Organizations Immunities 
                    Act shall not apply to the International Union for

                        --Section 2(b), 22 U.S.C. 288a(b), that provides 
                    international organizations and their property and 
                    assets with the same immunity from suit and judicial 
                    process as is enjoyed by foreign governments.
                        --Section 2(c), 22 U.S.C. 288a(c), that provides 
                    that the property and assets of international

                    employees of such organizations with immunity from suit 
                    and legal process relating to acts performed by them in
