Proclamation 6446 of June 15,1992 To Modify Duty-Free Treatment Under the Generalized System of Preferences

By the President of the United states of America A Proclamation 1. Pursuant to title V of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended (the 1974 Act) (19 U.S.C. 2461, et seq.), the President may designate specifled ar­ ticles provided for in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS) as eligible for preferential tariff treatment under the Gen­ eralized System of Preferences (GSP) when imported from designated beneficiary developing countries. 2. Pursuant to sections 501, 503(a), and 504(a) of the 1974 Act (19 U.S.C. 2461, 2463(a), and 2464(a)). in order to subdivide and amend the nomenclature of existing provisions of the HTS to modify the GSP, I have determined, after taking into account information and advice re­ ceived under section 503(a), that the HTS should be modified to adjust the original designation of eligible articles. In addition, pursuant to title V of the 1974 Act, I have determined that it is appropriate to des­ ignate certain articles provided for in the HTS as eligible for pref­ erential tariff treatment under the GSP when imported from designated beneficiary developing countries. Further, pursuant to section 504(a)(1) of the 1974 Act (19 U.S.C. 2464(a)(1)) and having considered the fac­ tors set forth in sections 501 and 502(c) of the 1974 Act (19 U.S.C. 2461 and 2462(c)), I have determined that certain beneHciary countries should not receive preferential tariff treatment under the GSP with re­ spect to certain articles designated as eligible for preferential tariff treatment under the GSP. 3. Section 604 of the 1974 Act (19 U.S.C. 2483) authorizes the Presi­ dent to embody in the HTS the substance of the provisions of that Act, and of other acts affecting import treatment, and actions thereunder. NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE BUSH, President of the United States of America, acting under the authority vested in me by the Constitu­ tion and the laws of the United States of America, including but not limited to title V and section 604 of the 1974 Act, do proclaim that: (1) In order to designate certain articles as eligible articles for pur­ poses of the GSP when imported from certain designated beneficiary developing countries, the HTS is modified as provided in Annex I to this proclamation. (2)(a) In order to designate certain articles as eligible articles for pur­ poses of the GSP when imported from any designated beneHciary de- 106 STAT. 5308 PROCLAMATION 6446-JUNE 15, 1992

veloping country, the Rates of Duty 1-Special subcolumn for the HTS subheadings enumerated in Annex 11(a) to this proclamation is modi­ fied by inserting in the parentheses the symbol "A" as provided in such Annex. (b) In order to designate certain articles as eligible articles for pur­ poses of the GSP when imported from certain designated beneficiary developing countries and to provide that certain countries should not be treated as a beneficiary developing country with respect to such eli­ gible articles, the Rates of Duty 1-Special subcolumn for each of the HTS subheadings enumerated in Annex 11(b) to this proclamation is modified by inserting the symbol "A*" as provided in such Annex. (3) In order to provide that certain countries should not be treated as a beneficiary developing country with respect to certain eligible arti­ cles for purposes of the GSP, general note 3(c)(ii)(D) to the HTS is modified as provided in Annex III to this proclamation. (4) In order to provide for the continuation of previously proclaimed staged reductions on Canadian goods in the HTS subheadings modified in Annex I to this proclamation, effective with respect to goods origi­ nating in the territory of Canada which are entered, or withdrawn firom warehouse for consumption, on or after the dates specified in Annex IV to this proclamation, the rate of duty in the HTS set forth in the Rates of Duty 1-Special subcolumn followed by the symbol "CA" in parentheses for each of the HTS subheadings enumerated in Annex IV to this proclamation is modified as provided in such Annex. (5) In order to provide for the continuation of previously proclaimed staged reductions on products of Israel in the HTS subheadings modi­ fied in Annex I to this proclamation, effective with respect to articles entered, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, on or after the dates specified in Annex V to this proclamation, the rate of duty in the HTS set forth in the Rates of Duty 1-Special subcolumn followed by the symbol "IL" in parentheses for each of the HTS subheadings enu­ merated in Annex V to this proclamation is modified as provided in such Annex. (6) Any provisions of previous proclamations and Executive orders inconsistent with the provisions of this proclamation are hereby super­ seded to the extent of such inconsistency. (7)(a) The modifications made by Annexes I, II, and III to this procla­ mation shall be effective with respect to articles both: (i) imported on or after January 1, 1976, and (ii) entered, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, on or after 15 days after the date of publication of this proclamation in the Federal Register. (b) The modifications made by Annex IV(a) to this proclamation shall be effective with respect to goods originating in the territory of Canada which are entered, or withdrawn from warehouse for consump­ tion, on or after January 1, 1993. (c) The modifications made by Annex IV(b) to this proclamation shall be effective with respect to goods originating in the territory of Canada which are entered, or withdrawn from warehouse for consump­ tion, on or after the dates indicated in Annex IV(b). (d) The amendments made by Annex V to this proclamation shall be effective with respect to products of Israel which are entered, or PROCLAMATION 6446-JUNE 15, 1992 106 STAT. 5309 withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, on or after January 1, 1995.

Proclamation 6447 of June 15,1992 To Modify Duty-Free Treatment Under the Generalized System of Preferences and for Other Purposes

By the President of the United states of America A Proclamation 1. Pursuant to title V of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended (the 1974 Act) (19 U.S.C. 2461, et seq.), the President may designate specified ar­ ticles provided for in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS) as eligible for preferential tariff treatment under the Gen­ eralized System of Preferences (GSP) when imported from designated beneficiary developing countries. 2. Pursuant to section 504(c) of the 1974 Act (19 U.S.C. 2464(c)), bene­ ficiary developing countries, except those designated as least-devel­ oped beneficiary developing countries pursuant to section 504(c)(6) of the 1974 Act (19 U.S.C. 2464(c)(6)), are subject to limitations on the preferential treatment afforded under the GSP. Pursuant to section 504(c)(5) of the 1974 Act (19 U.S.C. 2464(c)(5)), a country that is no longer treated as a beneficiary developing country with respect to an eligible article may be redesignated as a beneficiary developing country with respect to such article if imports of such article from such country did not exceed the limitations in section 504(c)(1) (after application of paragraph (c)(2)) during the preceding calendar year. Pursuant to sec­ tion 504(d)(1) of the 1974 Act (19 U.S.C. 2464(d)(1)), the limitation pro­ vided for in section 504(c)(1)(B) of the 1974 Act (19 U.S.C. 2464(c)(1)(B)) shall not apply with respect to an eligible article if a like or directly competitive article was not produced in the United States on January 3. 1985. Further, pursuant to section 504(d)(2) of the 1974 Act (19 U.S.C. 2464(d)(2)), the President may disregard the limitation provided for in section 504(c)(1)(B) with respect to any eligible article if the appraised value of the total imports of such article into the Unit­ ed States during the preceding calendar year is not in excess of an amount which bears the same ratio to $5,000,000 as the gross national product of the United States for that calendar year (as determined by the Department of Commerce) bears to the gross national product of the United States for calendar year 1979.
