Proclamation 6859 of December 13, 1995
To Modify the Tariff-Rate Quota on Italian-Type
Cheeses From Poland
By the President of the United States of America
A Proclamation
1. On May 17, 1995, the United States and Poland signed
a Record of Understanding Between Poland and the United
States of America on Agricultural Items, which provides
for an increase in the allocation to Poland of the in-
quota quantity of the tariff-rate quota on Italian-type
cheeses.
2. Section 404(d)(3) of the Uruguay Round Agreements
Act (``the URAA'')(19 U.S.C. 3601(d)(3)) authorizes the
President to allocate the in-quota quantity of a
tariff-rate quota for any agricultural product among
supplying countries or customs areas and to modify any
allocation as the President determines appropriate.
3. Accordingly, pursuant to section 404(d)(3) of the
URAA, I have determined that it is appropriate to
proclaim an increase in the allocation to Poland of the
in-quota quantity of the tariff-rate quota for Italian-
type cheeses.
4. Section 604 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended
(``the 1974 Act'')(19 U.S.C. 2483), authorizes the
President to embody in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule
of the United States (``the HTS'') the substance of the
relevant provisions of that Act, and of other Acts
affecting import treatment, and actions thereunder,
including the removal, modification, continuance, or
imposition of any rate of duty or other import
restriction. The modification of the allocation to
Poland of the in-quota quantity of the tariff-rate
quota for Italian-type cheeses is such an action.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, WILLIAM J. CLINTON, President of the
United States of America, acting under the authority
vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the
United States of America, including but not limited to
section 404(d)(3) of the URAA (19 U.S.C. 3601(d)(3))
and section 604 of the 1974 Act (19 U.S.C. 2483), do
proclaim that:
(1) Additional U.S. note 21 to chapter 4 of the HTS is
modified by deleting the quantity ``1,100,000'' set out
opposite Poland and inserting ``1,325,000'' in lieu
thereof.
(2) This proclamation is effective with respect to
goods entered or withdrawn from warehouse for
consumption on or after the date of signature of this
proclamation.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this
thirteenth day of December, in the year of our Lord
nineteen hundred and ninety-five, and of the
Independence of the United States of America the two
hundred and twentieth.
(Presidential Sig.)
