AI Summary
This bill modifies the authority for humanitarian demining assistance and stockpiled conventional munitions assistance. Specifically, it expands the authority to "provide" assistance to a country, rather than just "carry out" activities in a country. It also increases the spending cap for these activities from $15 million to $20 million and requires the Department of Defense to submit an annual report to Congress on the assistance provided, including details on the countries receiving the assistance, the activities carried out, and the amounts spent. The bill aims to enhance the flexibility and oversight of these important humanitarian and security programs.
