Bill Clinton

“ Pursuant to section 503 (d) of the 1974 Act, I have determined that the competitive need limitations of section 503 (c) (2) (A) should be waived with respect to certain eligible articles from certain beneficiary developing countries. I have received the advice of the International Trade Commission on whether any industries in the United States are likely to be adversely affected by such waivers, and I have determined, based on that advice and on the considerations described in sections 501 and 502 (c) , that such waivers are in the national economic interest of the United States. ”
