Subtitle F—Other Matters

P. L. 116-

House Conference Report   116-617

(1) in paragraph (3), by inserting ``, and an identification of any beneficial owner of such corporation,'' after ``to the corporation''; and

(2) by adding at the end the following new paragraph:

``(4) Definitions.--In this subsection:

``(A) Beneficial ownership.--The term `beneficial ownership' has the meaning given under section 847 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2020 (Public Law 116-92; 133 Stat. 1505; 10 U.S.C. 2509 note).

``(B) Corporation.--The term `corporation' means any corporation, company, limited liability company, limited partnership, business trust, business association, or other similar entity.''.

The House bill contained a provision (sec. 815) that would amend section 2313 of title 41, United States Code, by requiring the database used by Federal agency contract and grant officers for contractor responsibility determinations to reflect information about contractors' beneficial owners.

The Senate amendment contained no similar provision.

The Senate recedes with a clarifying amendment.
