On May 18, 2004, the United States
and Australia entered into the United
States-Australia Free Trade Agreement
(‘‘the USAFTA’’). Chapter 15 of the
USAFTA sets forth certain obligations
with respect to government
procurement of goods and services, as
specified in Annex 15–A of the
USAFTA. On August 3, 2004, the
President signed into law the United
States-Australia Free Trade Agreement
Implementation Act (‘‘the USAFTA
Act’’) (Pub. L. 108–286, 19 U.S.C. 3805
note). In section 101 of the USAFTA
Act, the Congress approved the
USAFTA and the statement of
administrative action proposed to
implement the USAFTA that the
President submitted to Congress. The
USAFTA entered into force on January
1, 2005.
Section 1–201 of Executive Order
12260 of December 31, 1980 (46 FR
1653) delegates the functions of the

the Trade Agreements Act of 1979 (‘‘the
Trade Agreements Act’’) (19 U.S.C.
2511, 2512) to the United States Trade
Representative.
Now, therefore, I, Robert B. Zoellick,
United States Trade Representative, in
conformity with the provisions of
Sections 301 and 302 of the Trade
Agreements Act, and Executive Order
12260, and in order to carry out U.S.
obligations under Chapter 15 of the
USAFTA, do hereby determine that:
1. Australia is a country, which,
pursuant to the USAFTA, will provide
appropriate reciprocal competitive
government procurement opportunities
to United States products and suppliers
of such products. In accordance with
section 301(b)(3) of the Trade
Agreements Act, Australia is designated
for purposes of section 301(a) of the
Trade Agreements Act.
2. With respect to eligible products of
Australia (i.e., goods and services
covered by the Schedules of the United
States in Annex 15–A of the USAFTA)
and suppliers of such products, the
application of any law, procedure, or
practice regarding government
procurement that would, if applied to
such products and suppliers, result in
treatment less favorable than accorded—
