(2) Every agent of a foreign principal from an adversary nation or a foreign terrorist organization who has filed a registration statement required by subsection (1) of this section shall, within thirty days after the expiration of each period of six months succeeding such filing, file with the Attorney General a supplement to such statement under oath, on a form prescribed by the Attorney General. Such statement shall set forth, with respect to such preceding six-month period, such facts as the Attorney General, having due regard for the national security and the public interest, deems necessary to make the information required under this section accurate, complete, and current with respect to such six-month period. In connection with the information furnished under subdivisions (1)(c), (d), (f)(i), and (h) of this section, the registrant shall give notice to the Attorney General of any change therein within ten days after such change occurs. If the Attorney General, having due regard for the national security and the public interest, determines that it is necessary to carry out the purposes of the Foreign Adversary and Terrorist Agent Registration Act, the Attorney General may, in any particular case, require supplements to the registration statement to be filed at more frequent intervals with respect to all or particular items of information to be furnished.
