Sec. 286kk. Discussions to enhance capacity of Fund to alleviate
potentially adverse impacts of Fund programs on poor and
environment
The Secretary of the Treasury shall instruct the United States
Executive Director of the Fund to seek policy changes by the Fund,
through formal initiatives and through bilateral discussions, which will
result in--
(1) the initiation of a systematic review of policy
prescriptions implemented by the Fund, for the purpose of
determining whether the Fund's objectives were met and the social
and environmental impacts of such policy prescriptions; and
(2) the establishment of procedures which ensure the inclusion,
in future economic reform programs approved by the Fund, of policy
options which eliminate or reduce the potential adverse impact on
the well-being of the poor or the environment resulting from such
programs.
