Determination of Action Under Section 301(b): Honduran Protection of Intellectual Property Rights

Краткое содержание

The United States Trade Representative (``USTR''), pursuant to sections 304(a)(1) (A) and 301 (b) of the Trade Act of 1974 (the ``Trade Act''), has determined that based on the failure of the Government of Honduras to provide adequate and effective protection of intellectual property rights, certain acts, policies, and practices of Honduras with respect to the protection of intellectual property rights are unreasonable and burden or restrict United States commerce. Pursuant to sections 304(a)(1)(B), 301(b) and 301(c) of the Trade Act, the USTR has determined that the appropriate action to obtain the elimination of such acts, policies, and practices is to suspend the preferential treatment accorded under the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) and the Caribbean Basin Initiative (CBI) programs to those products of Honduras listed in Annex I of this notice.
