Sec. 1519. Lethal binary chemical munitions

    (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, none of the funds 
authorized to be appropriated by this or any other Act shall be used for 
the purpose of production of lethal binary chemical munitions unless the 
President certifies to Congress that the production of such munitions is 
essential to the national interest and submits a full report thereon to 
the President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of 
Representatives as far in advance of the production of such munitions as 
is practicable.
    (b) For purposes of this section the term ``lethal binary chemical 
munitions'' means (1) any toxic chemical (solid, liquid, or gas) which, 
through its chemical properties, is intended to be used to produce 
injury or death to human beings, and (2) any unique device, instrument, 
apparatus, or contrivance, including any components or accessories 
thereof, intended to be used to disperse or otherwise disseminate any 
such toxic chemical.
