Title: Individuals with Disabilities Education Act: Discipline Provisions in P.L. 105-17
Authors: Nancy Lee Jones, American Law Division 
Abstract: Although significant changes were made in the 1997 reauthorization of IDEA, amendments have been proposed since then to further amend the discipline provisions. Several of these have passed the House or Senate but have not become law. The 108th Congress passed H.R. 1350 in both the House and Senate but conferees have not yet been appointed. Prior to a more detailed discussion of the 1997 statutory and regulatory changes as well as more recent proposed changes, this report first examines the history of IDEAs discipline provisions.
