References in Text
Section 12705 of this title, referred to in subsec. (c)(2)(A)(ii) and (3)(A)(I), was in the original “section 105 of this Act”, meaning section 105 of the AIDS Housing Opportunity Act, and was translated as meaning section 105 of the Cranston-Gonzalez National Affordable Housing Act, to reflect the probable intent of Congress. The AIDS Housing Opportunity Act does not contain a section 105.
