Among other things, this Law 1) sets, at 24 months after enactment, the termination of the moratorium on the Secretary's authority to grant, under specified US federal regulations, a modification or waiver for fetal research and extends the repeal of this provision to 31 October 1990; and 2) revises the definition of "human organ," as it applies to provisions prohibiting organ purchases, to declare that the term includes specified human organs and any other human organ, or any subpart thereof, including that derived from a fetus, specified by the Secretary of Health and Human Services by regulation. For the original moratorium, see Annual Review of Population Law, Vol. 12, 1985, Section 240.
