(6) a consideration and review of all aspects of the matter of interstate versus intrastate to the extent that it involves the manufacturing, distribution, or use of cyanide; ,, (7) a determination as to the feasibility and desirability of requiring manufacturers of cyanide to color all such cyanide with a distinctive color so that the consuming public can more readily identify products laced with cyanide; (8) a determination as to the feasibility and desirability of requiring limited-access storage for cyanide at universities, laboratories, and other institutions that use cyanide for research or other purposes; and (9) a determination as to the feasibility and desirability of issuing regulations to require any person who sells or otherwise transfers, at a retail level, any cyanide to record such sale or transfer, including the identity of the person purchasing or otherwise receiving such cyanide, the address of such person, and the intended use of such cyanide.

STATEMENT OF POLICY.

(a) The Senate finds that— (1) there is an urgent critical need for funds to carry out the programs and activities authorized by the preceding provisions of this Act in order to ensure a drug free America; (2) this Act is the result of a bipartisan effort to combat our national drug abuse problem; and (3) only the exceptional nature of the drug abuse problem warrants the expenditure of funds in excess of otherwise applicable budget limitations. (b) Therefore, it is the sense of the Senate that— (1) amounts authorized to carry out the preceding provisions of this Act should be provided as new budget authority for fiscal year 1987 in H.J. Res. 738 (99th Congress, 2d Session); and Ante., p. 1783; (2) such amounts should not be provided through transfers post, p. 3341. from, or reductions in, any amount appropriated by such joint resolution for any other program, project, or activity for such fiscal year.
