Request for Comments and Notice of Public Hearing Concerning Proposed Free Trade Agreement Negotiations With Southern Africa

Краткое содержание

The United States intends to initiate negotiations on a free trade agreement (FTA) with Botswana, Lesotho, Namibia, South Africa and Swaziland, which collectively comprise the Southern African Customs Union. The interagency Trade Policy Staff Committee (TPSC) will convene a public hearing and seeks public comments to assist the United States Trade Representative (USTR) in amplifying and clarifying negotiating objectives for the proposed FTA and to provide advice on how specific goods and services and other matters should be treated under the proposed agreement.
