CIVILIAN 
FOREIGN 
NATIONALS FOR LOSSES INCIDENT TO COMBAT ACTIVI-
TIES OF THE ARMED FORCES. 
(a) REPORT.—The Secretary of Defense shall submit to Congress 
a report on the feasibility and the desirability of establishing general

(b) MATTERS TO BE INCLUDED IN REPORT.—The Secretary shall 
include in the report the following:

Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom 
to provide compensation, other monetary payments, or other 
assistance to civilian foreign nationals who incur harm due 
directly or indirectly to the combat activities of the United

establishing general uniform procedures and guidelines for the
H. R. 2647—341 
provision of such assistance, based upon the goals of timely 
commencement of a program of monetary assistance, efficient 
and effective implementation of such program, and consistency 
in the amount of assistance in relation to the harm incurred. 
This discussion will also include whether the implementation 
of general uniform procedures and guidelines would create a 
legally enforceable entitlement to ‘‘compensation’’ and, if so, 
any potential significant operational impact arising from such 
an entitlement.

were to be established, a discussion of the following: 
(A) Whether such assistance should be limited to speci-
fied types of combat activities or operations, e.g., such 
as during counterinsurgency operations. 
(B) Whether such assistance should be contingent upon 
a formal determination that a particular combat activity/ 
operation is a qualifying activity, and the criteria, if any, 
for such a determination. 
(C) Whether a time limit from the date of loss for 
providing such assistance should be prescribed. 
(D) Whether only monetary or other types of assistance 
should be authorized, and what types of nonmonetary 
assistance, if any, should be authorized. 
(E) Whether monetary value limits should be placed 
on the assistance that may be provided, or whether the 
determination to provide assistance and, if so, the monetary 
value of such assistance, should be based, in whole or 
in part, on a legal advisor’s assessment of the facts. 
(F) Whether a written record of the determination 
to provide or to not provide such assistance should be 
maintained and a copy made available to the civilian for-
eign national.
