Traduction automatique locale · Langue originale de la source
Résumé
On June 12, 1996, the United States Trade Representative (USTR) initiated an investigation under section 302(b)(1) of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended (the Trade Act) (19 U.S.C. 2412(b)(1)), with respect to certain acts, policies and practices of the Government of Turkey that may result in the discriminatory treatment of U.S. films in Turkey. Following consultations with the United States under the auspices of the World Trade Organization (WTO), Turkey agreed to equalize any tax imposed on box office receipts from the showing of domestic and imported films. Having reached a satisfactory resolution of the issues under investigation, the USTR has determined to terminate this section 302 investigation and monitor implementation of the agreement under section 306 of the Trade Act.
