Book Description
GAO evaluated the Department of Commerce's procedures for conducting foreign availability assessments to determine whether militarily significant commercial products are freely available to the Soviet bloc from other countries. GAO found that Commerce: (1) averaged 16 months to complete foreign availability cases, although the Export Administration Act of 1979 had envisioned a 90-day processing period; (2) had incomplete cases that were in process for up to 47 months; (3) had difficulty in obtaining necessary evidence; (4) was reluctant to publish a determination without Department of Defense (DOD) concurrence; (5) needs to improve its information-sharing procedures with DOD and other agencies; and (6) should update its regulations specifying what information it uses in determining foreign availability. GAO also found that Commerce: (1) disagreed with DOD on information-sharing procedures; and (2) has started notifying other agencies of initiated assessments and requesting relevant information.

Book Description
Protecting U.S. security by controlling technology export has long been a major issue. But the threat of the Soviet sphere is rapidly being superseded by state-sponsored terrorism; nuclear, chemical, biological, and missile proliferation; and other critical security factors. This volume provides a policy outline and specific steps for an urgently needed revamping of U.S. and multilateral export controls. It presents the latest information on these and many other pressing issues: The successes and failures of U.S. export controls, including a look at U.S. laws, regulations, and export licensing; U.S. participation in international agencies; and the role of industry. The effects of export controls on industry. The growing threat of "proliferation" technologies. World events make this volume indispensable to policymakers, government security agencies, technology exporters, and faculty and students of international affairs.

Book Description
" To protect its national security and commercial interests, the United States has implemented an export control system to limit sensitive technologies from falling into the wrong hands. The Department of State regulates U.S. defense exports and the Department of Commerce regulates dual-use exports that have commercial and military applications. Each agency uses a separate control list of items that may require a license to export. Agencies use compliance activities to prevent the diversion or misuse of exported items against U.S. interests or allies. Misuse can occur through illicit transshipment, the diversion of items from their origin through an intermediary country to an unauthorized destination. In 2010, the President announced reforms to the export control system. This review examines (1) agencies' compliance activities to address transshipment risk and (2) the extent to which U.S. agencies assessed the impact of export control reforms on the resource needs for compliance activities. GAO analyzed U.S. licensing data for 13 transshipment countries and visited Hong Kong, Singapore, and the United Arab Emirates. "
