On the recordSeptember 28, 1996
I am pleased to explain to my colleagues in the House the provisions of H.R. 3815, which makes miscellaneous amendments to trade laws, with further amendments adopted during Senate consideration of the bill. The Senate added amendments similar to those in the House-passed bill which are aimed at streamlining and facilitating the administration of U.S. trade laws. The Senate also added some noncontroversial duty reductions and suspensions, reliquidations, and refunds for acknowledged errors by the Customs Service. These provisions have bipartisan support and the support of the industries involved, and are of similar character to provisions already included in the House bill.
