The dissent also relies on a statement in an executive branch memorandum stating that the Senate version was “broader” than the House version. Dis. op. at 174 of 187 U.S.App.D.C., at 608 of 571 F.2d, quoting 116 Cong.Rec. 42139 (1970). This too is inconclusive. The “reasonable expectation of acquisition” language in the Senate bill would indeed cover some situations not covered by the notice definition, i. e., where the government has not acquired property and has not sent notice but there is a reasonable expectation of acquisition. But it does not necessarily follow that Congress, as opposed to the executive, intended the notice definition to be narrower than the Senate definition in all respects.
