Modification of Import Quotas on Certain Sugar Containing Articles

Ante, p. 2007.

By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation ' 1. By Proclamation No. 5294 of January 28, 1985, I imposed, on an emergency basis, import quotas on certain sugar containing articles pursuant to Section 22 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1933, as amended [7 U.S.C. 624) ("Section 22"]. These quotas were to remain in effect pending investigation by the United States International Trade Commission [the "Commission"] and Presidential action on the report and recommendations of the Commission. ', 2. The Secretary of Agriculture has advised me that, due to unexpected circumstances, it is appropriate to modify those import quotas, pending the investigation, report, and recommendations of the Commission, to permit the entry of certain articles currently excluded by those quotas. 3.
