TITLE 19--CUSTOMS DUTIES
CHAPTER 12--TRADE ACT OF 1974
SUBCHAPTER III--ENFORCEMENT OF UNITED STATES RIGHTS UNDER TRADE
AGREEMENTS AND RESPONSE TO CERTAIN FOREIGN TRADE PRACTICES
Sec. 2411. Actions by United States Trade Representative
(a) Mandatory action
(1) If the United States Trade Representative determines under
section 2414(a)(1) of this title that--
(A) the rights of the United States under any trade agreement
are being denied; or
(B) an act, policy, or practice of a foreign country--
(i) violates, or is inconsistent with, the provisions of, or
otherwise denies benefits to the United States under, any trade
agreement, or
(ii) is unjustifiable and burdens or restricts United States
commerce;
the Trade Representative shall take action authorized in subsection (c)
of this section, subject to the specific direction, if any, of the
President regarding any such action, and shall take all other
appropriate and feasible action within the power of the President that
the President may direct the Trade Representative to take under this
subsection, to enforce such rights or to obtain the elimination of such
act, policy, or practice. Actions may be taken that are within the power
of the President with respect to trade in any goods or services, or with
respect to any other area of pertinent relations with the foreign
country.
(2) The Trade Representative is not required to take action under
paragraph (1) in any case in which--
(A) the Dispute Settlement Body (as defined in section 3531(5)
of this title) has adopted a report, or a ruling issued under the
formal dispute settlement proceeding provided under any other trade
agreement finds, that--
(i) the rights of the United States under a trade agreement
are not being denied, or
(ii) the act, policy, or practice--
(I) is not a violation of, or inconsistent with, the
rights of the United States, or
(II) does not deny, nullify, or impair benefits to the
United States under any trade agreement; or
(B) the Trade Representative finds that--
(i) the foreign country is taking satisfactory measures to
grant the rights of the United States under a trade agreement,
(ii) the foreign country has--
(I) agreed to eliminate or phase out the act, policy, or
practice, or
(II) agreed to an imminent solution to the burden or
restriction on United States commerce that is satisfactory
to the Trade Representative,
(iii) it is impossible for the foreign country to achieve
the results described in clause (i) or (ii), as appropriate, but
the foreign country agrees to provide to the United States
compensatory trade benefits that are satisfactory to the Trade
Representative,
(iv) in extraordinary cases, where the taking of action
under this subsection would have an adverse impact on the United
States economy substantially out of proportion to the benefits
of such action, taking into account the impact of not taking
such action on the credibility of the provisions of this
subchapter, or
(v) the taking of action under this subsection would cause
serious harm to the national security of the United States.
(3) Any action taken under paragraph (1) to eliminate an act,
policy, or practice shall be devised so as to affect goods or services
of the foreign country in an amount that is equivalent in value to the
burden or restriction being imposed by that country on United States
commerce.
(b) Discretionary action
If the Trade Representative determines under section 2414(a)(1) of
this title that--
(1) an act, policy, or practice of a foreign country is
unreasonable or discriminatory and burdens or restricts United
States commerce, and
(2) action by the United States is appropriate, the Trade
Representative shall take all appropriate and feasible action
authorized under subsection (c) of this section, subject to the
specific direction, if any, of the President regarding any such
action, and all other appropriate and feasible action within the
power of the President that the President may direct the Trade
Representative to take under this subsection, to obtain the
elimination of that act, policy, or practice. Actions may be taken
that are within the power of the President with respect to trade in
any goods or services, or with respect to any other area of
pertinent relations with the foreign country.
(c) Scope of authority
(1) For purposes of carrying out the provisions of subsection (a) or
(b) of this section, the Trade Representative is authorized to--
(A) suspend, withdraw, or prevent the application of, benefits
of trade agreement concessions to carry out a trade agreement with
the foreign country referred to in such subsection;
(B) impose duties or other import restrictions on the goods of,
and, notwithstanding any other provision of law, fees or
restrictions on the services of, such foreign country for such time
as the Trade Representative determines appropriate;
(C) in a case in which the act, policy, or practice also fails
to meet the eligibility criteria for receiving duty-free treatment
under subsections (b) and (c) of section 2462 of this title,
subsections (b) and (c) of section 2702 of this title, or
subsections (c) and (d) of section 3202 of this title, withdraw,
limit, or suspend such treatment under such provisions,
notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (a)(3) of this section;
or
(D) enter into binding agreements with such foreign country that
commit such foreign country to--
(i) eliminate, or phase out, the act, policy, or practice
that is the subject of the action to be taken under subsection
(a) or (b) of this section,
(ii) eliminate any burden or restriction on United States
commerce resulting from such act, policy, or practice, or
(iii) provide the United States with compensatory trade
benefits that--
(I) are satisfactory to the Trade Representative, and
(II) meet the requirements of paragraph (4).
(2)(A) Notwithstanding any other provision of law governing any
service sector access authorization, and in addition to the authority
conferred in paragraph (1), the Trade Representative may, for purposes
of carrying out the provisions of subsection (a) or (b) of this
section--
(i) restrict, in the manner and to the extent the Trade
Representative determines appropriate, the terms and conditions of
any such authorization, or
(ii) deny the issuance of any such authorization.
(B) Actions described in subparagraph (A) may only be taken under
this section with respect to service sector access authorizations
granted, or applications therefor pending, on or after the date on
which--
(i) a petition is filed under section 2412(a) of this title, or
(ii) a determination to initiate an investigation is made by the
Trade Representative under section 2412(b) of this title.
(C) Before the Trade Representative takes any action under this
section involving the imposition of fees or other restrictions on the
services of a foreign country, the Trade Representative shall, if the
services involved are subject to regulation by any agency of the Federal
Government or of any State, consult, as appropriate, with the head of
the agency concerned.
(3) The actions the Trade Representative is authorized to take under
subsection (a) or (b) of this section may be taken against any goods or
economic sector--
(A) on a nondiscriminatory basis or solely against the foreign
country described in such subsection, and
(B) without regard to whether or not such goods or economic
sector were involved in the act, policy, or practice that is the
subject of such action.
(4) Any trade agreement described in paragraph (1)(D)(iii) shall
provide compensatory trade benefits that benefit the economic sector
which includes the domestic industry that would benefit from the
elimination of the act, policy, or practice that is the subject of the
action to be taken under subsection (a) or (b) of this section, or
benefit the economic sector as closely related as possible to such
economic sector, unless--
(A) the provision of such trade benefits is not feasible, or
(B) trade benefits that benefit any other economic sector would
be more satisfactory than such trade benefits.
(5) If the Trade Representative determines that actions to be taken
under subsection (a) or (b) of this section are to be in the form of
import restrictions, the Trade Representative shall--
(A) give preference to the imposition of duties over the
imposition of other import restrictions, and
(B) if an import restriction other than a duty is imposed,
consider substituting, on an incremental basis, an equivalent duty
for such other import restriction.
(6) Any action taken by the Trade Representative under this section
with respect to export targeting shall, to the extent possible, reflect
the full benefit level of the export targeting to the beneficiary over
the period during which the action taken has an effect.
(d) Definitions and special rules

States, is otherwise unfair and inequitable.

(III) nondiscriminatory market access opportunities for
United States persons that rely upon intellectual property
protection, or

that demonstrate a significant and tangible overall advancement
in providing throughout the foreign country (including any
designated zone within the foreign country) the rights and other
standards described in the subclauses of subparagraph (B)(iii),

(II) such acts, policies, and practices are not inconsistent
with the level of economic development of the foreign country.
(ii) The Trade Representative shall publish in the Federal
Register any determination made under clause (i), together with a

practice is unreasonable, reciprocal opportunities in the United
States for foreign nationals and firms shall be taken into account,
to the extent appropriate.
(E) The term ``export targeting'' means any government plan or
scheme consisting of a combination of coordinated actions (whether
carried out severally or jointly) that are bestowed on a specific
enterprise, industry, or group thereof, the effect of which is to

in the export of a class or kind of merchandise.
(F)(i) For the purposes of subparagraph (B)(i)(II), adequate and
effective protection of intellectual property rights includes
adequate and effective means under the laws of the foreign country

Ex. Ord. No. 13155. Access to HIV/AIDS Pharmaceuticals and Medical
Technologies
Ex. Ord. No. 13155, May 10, 2000, 65 F.R. 30521, provided:
By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and
the laws of the United States of America, including sections 141 and
chapter 1 of title III of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended (19 U.S.C.
2171, 2411-2420), section 307 of the Public Health Service Act (42
U.S.C. 242l), and section 104 of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as
amended (22 U.S.C. 2151b), and in accordance with executive branch
policy on health-related intellectual property matters to promote access
to essential medicines, it is hereby ordered as follows:
Section 1. Policy. (a) In administering sections 301-310 of the
Trade Act of 1974 [19 U.S.C. 2411-2420], the United States shall not
seek, through negotiation or otherwise, the revocation or revision of
any intellectual property law or policy of a beneficiary sub-Saharan
African country, as determined by the President, that regulates HIV/AIDS
pharmaceuticals or medical technologies if the law or policy of the
country:
(1) promotes access to HIV/AIDS pharmaceuticals or medical
technologies for affected populations in that country; and
(2) provides adequate and effective intellectual property protection
consistent with the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual
Property Rights (TRIPS Agreement) referred to in section 101(d)(15) of
the Uruguay Round Agreements Act (19 U.S.C. 3511(d)(15)).
(b) The United States shall encourage all beneficiary sub-Saharan
African countries to implement policies designed to address the
underlying causes of the HIV/AIDS crisis by, among other things, making
efforts to encourage practices that will prevent further transmission
and infection and to stimulate development of the infrastructure
necessary to deliver adequate health services, and by encouraging
policies that provide an incentive for public and private research on,
and development of, vaccines and other medical innovations that will
combat the HIV/AIDS epidemic in Africa.
Sec. 2. Rationale: (a) This order finds that:
(1) since the onset of the worldwide HIV/AIDS epidemic,
approximately 34 million people living in sub-Saharan Africa have been
infected with the disease;
(2) of those infected, approximately 11.5 million have died;
(3) the deaths represent 83 percent of the total HIV/AIDS-related
deaths worldwide; and
(4) access to effective therapeutics for HIV/AIDS is determined by
issues of price, health system infrastructure for delivery, and
sustainable financing.
(b) In light of these findings, this order recognizes that:
(1) it is in the interest of the United States to take all
reasonable steps to prevent further spread of infectious disease,
particularly HIV/AIDS;
(2) there is critical need for effective incentives to develop new
pharmaceuticals, vaccines, and therapies to combat the HIV/AIDS crisis,
including effective global intellectual property standards designed to
foster pharmaceutical and medical innovation;
(3) the overriding priority for responding to the crisis of HIV/AIDS
in sub-Saharan Africa should be to improve public education and to
encourage practices that will prevent further transmission and
infection, and to stimulate development of the infrastructure necessary
to deliver adequate health care services;
(4) the United States should work with individual countries in sub-
Saharan Africa to assist them in development of effective public
education campaigns aimed at the prevention of HIV/AIDS transmission and
infection, and to improve their health care infrastructure to promote
improved access to quality health care for their citizens in general,
and particularly with respect to the HIV/AIDS epidemic;
(5) an effective United States response to the crisis in sub-Saharan
Africa must focus in the short term on preventive programs designed to
reduce the frequency of new infections and remove the stigma of the
disease, and should place a priority on basic health services that can
be used to treat opportunistic infections, sexually transmitted
infections, and complications associated with HIV/AIDS so as to prolong
the duration and improve the quality of life of those with the disease;
(6) an effective United States response to the crisis must also
focus on the development of HIV/AIDS vaccines to prevent the spread of
the disease;
(7) the innovative capacity of the United States in the commercial
and public pharmaceutical research sectors is unmatched in the world,
and the participation of both these sectors will be a critical element
in any successful program to respond to the HIV/AIDS crisis in sub-
Saharan Africa;
(8) the TRIPS Agreement recognizes the importance of promoting
effective and adequate protection of intellectual property rights and
the right of countries to adopt measures necessary to protect public
health;
(9) individual countries should have the ability to take measures to
address the HIV/AIDS epidemic, provided that such measures are
consistent with their international obligations; and
(10) successful initiatives will require effective partnerships and
cooperation among governments, international organizations,
nongovernmental organizations, and the private sector, and greater
consideration should be given to financial, legal, and other incentives
that will promote improved prevention and treatment actions.
Sec. 3. Scope. (a) This order prohibits the United States Government
from taking action pursuant to section 301(b) of the Trade Act of 1974
[19 U.S.C. 2411(b)] with respect to any law or policy in beneficiary
sub-Saharan African countries that promotes access to HIV/AIDS
pharmaceuticals or medical technologies and that provides adequate and
effective intellectual property protection consistent with the TRIPS
Agreement. However, this order does not prohibit United States
Government officials from evaluating, determining, or expressing concern
about whether such a law or policy promotes access to HIV/AIDS
pharmaceuticals or medical technologies or provides adequate and
effective intellectual property protection consistent with the TRIPS
Agreement. In addition, this order does not prohibit United States
Government officials from consulting with or otherwise discussing with
sub-Saharan African governments whether such law or policy meets the
conditions set forth in section 1(a) of this order. Moreover, this order
does not prohibit the United States Government from invoking the dispute
settlement procedures of the World Trade Organization to examine whether
any such law or policy is consistent with the Uruguay Round Agreements,
referred to in section 101(d) of the Uruguay Round Agreements Act [19
U.S.C. 3511(d)].
(b) This order is intended only to improve the internal management
of the executive branch and is not intended to, and does not create, any
right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or
equity by a party against the United States, its agencies or
instrumentalities, its officers or employees, or any other person.
