Support for East European Democracy

The SEED Act, signed into law in November 1989, contained 25 distinct
actions to support structural adjustment, private sector development, trade
and investment, and educational, cultural, and scientific activities in
Poland and Hungary. Funding for most of the actions was provided by the
Agency for International Development. The SEED Act expired at the end of
fiscal year 1990. Since then support has been provided under the Foreign
Assistance Act of 1991.
