WASHINGTON
October 15, 1985
MEMORANDUM FOR THE ECONOMIC POLICY COUNCIL
85- 3889
SUBJECT: Presidential Policy Directive --
Initiating Unfair Trade Practice Proceedings
Pursuant to the October 11, 1985 memorandum from the Economic
Policy Council on initiating unfair trade practice proceedings,
the President has directed the United States Trade Representative
to initiate Section 301 proceedings against Korean intellectual
property abuses and GATT Subsidies Code dispute settlement
proceedings against EC wheat export subsidies.
The President was prepared to initiate Section 301 proceedings
against Taiwanese controls on import and distribution of
cigarettes, wine and beer. However, Taiwan Government officials
made an acceptable offer to open their markets tor-these products
over the next six to twelve months before the President acted to
initiate the proceedings. Rather than initiate a Section 301
proceeding, the President has directed the United States Trade
Representative to report to him on the progress and effectiveness
of Taiwan's market opening measures by December 31, 1985.
James A! Baker, III
Chairman Pro Tempore
