President Clinton delegated to the U.S. Trade Representative temporary authority (through October 7, 1994) to modify, restrict, or terminate Title VII trade sanctions scheduled to take effect September 30, 1994 against Japan for discriminating in government procurement of U.S. medical technology and telecommunications goods and services.
This executive order directs the U.S. Trade Representative to identify priority foreign trade barriers that, if eliminated, would most significantly boost U.S. exports, then automatically initiate Section 301 investigations within 21 days of reporting those priorities to Congress. It creates a systematic linkage between the annual National Trade Estimate Report and enforcement actions under trade law.
