Background: In his letter of November 8,

2018, the USTR requested that the
Commission provide certain advice
under section 131 of the Trade Act of
1974 (19 U.S.C. 2151) and an
assessment under section
105(a)(2)(B)(i)(III) of the Bipartisan
Congressional Trade Priorities and
Accountability Act of 2015 (TPA Act)
(19 U.S.C. 4204(a)(2)(B)(i)(III)) with
respect to the effects of providing dutyfree treatment for imports of products
from the United Kingdom (UK).
More specifically, the USTR, under
authority delegated by the President and
pursuant to section 131 of the Trade Act
of 1974, requested that the Commission
provide a report containing its advice as
to the probable economic effect of
providing duty-free treatment for
imports of currently dutiable products
from the UK on (i) industries in the
United States producing like or directly
competitive products, and (ii)
consumers. The USTR asked that the
Commission’s analysis consider each
article in chapters 1 through 97 of the
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTS) for which U.S.
tariffs will remain, taking into account
implementation of U.S. commitments in
the World Trade Organization. The
USTR asked that the advice be based on
the HTS in effect during 2018 and trade
data for 2017.
In addition, the USTR requested that
the Commission prepare an assessment,
as described in section
105(a)(2)(B)(i)(III) of the TPA Act, of the
probable economic effects of eliminating
tariffs on imports from the UK of those
agricultural products described in the
list attached to the USTR’s request letter
on (i) industries in the United States
producing the products concerned, and
(ii) the U.S. economy as a whole. The
USTR’s request letter and list of
agricultural products are posted on the
Commission’s website at https://
www.usitc.gov.
For the purposes of these analyses,
the USTR requested that the
Commission assume the UK will no
longer be a Member State of the
European Union. The USTR indicated
that those sections of the Commission’s
report that relate to advice and
assessment of probable economic effects
will be classified. The USTR also
indicated that he considers the
Commission’s report to be an
interagency memorandum that will
contain pre-decisional advice and be
subject to the deliberative process
privilege. As requested, the Commission
will provide its report to the USTR as
soon as possible, and no later than May
8, 2019.
Public Hearing: A public hearing in
connection with this investigation will
