SEC. 812. EXTENSION OF MENTOR-PROTEGE PROGRAM.

Section 831 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1991 (Public Law 101-510; 10 U.S.C. 2302 note) is amended--

(1) in subsection (j)--

(A) in paragraph (1), by striking `September 30, 2002' and inserting `September 30, 2005'; and

(B) in paragraph (2), by striking `September 30, 2005' and inserting `September 30, 2008'; and

(2) in subsection (l)(3), by striking `2004' and inserting `2007'.

The Senate bill contained a provision (sec. 823) that would codify the pilot mentor-protege program of the Department of Defense and authorize the program in permanent law.

The House amendment contained no similar provision.

The House recedes with an amendment that would extend the program for three years, through September 30, 2005.
