16 The provision also clarifies that, for purposes of taxable years in which the personal exemption
is reduced to zero, this should not alter the operation of those provisions of the Code which
refer to a taxpayer allowed a deduction (or an individual with respect to whom a taxpayer is
allowed a deduction) under section 151. Thus, for instance, sec. 24(a) allows a credit against tax
with respect to each qualifying child of the taxpayer for which the taxpayer is allowed a deduction
under section 151. A qualifying child, as defined under section 152(c), remains eligible for
the credit, notwithstanding that the deduction under section 151 has been reduced to zero.
