This document is a report of the U.S. Senate Committee on Labor and Human Resources on the Vocational Education Act of 1984 (S. 2341). The report is organized in nine sections. The first three sections introduce the bill, provide background information on its intent and on the legislation that it was designed to replace (the Vocational Education Act of 1976), and provide a rationale for the new legislation. The fourth section explains the general intents and provisions of the bill; the fifth and sixth sections include statements of the legislation's expected impact on the regulatory process and on families. The seventh section contains an estimate of the cost of implementing the proposed legislation, while the eighth section, the largest section of the report, explains the proposed legislation section by section. Additional and separate views of some committee members are presented in the final section. (The Senate committee recommended passage of S. 2341 and reported it out of committee for consideration by the full Senate.) (KC)
