Submissions directed at threats to public health or safety must: (1) Include a detailed description of the threat, (2) identify the source of the information demonstrating the existence of the threat, and (3) provide a copy of, or a citation to, each such source of information. III. Optional Questions 1. How can international regulatory and law enforcement collaboration and information sharing be enhanced to address cross-border intellectual property infringement? 2. What legal or operational changes might be made, or collaborative steps undertaken between federal agencies and the private sector, to streamline or improve the efficacy of enforcement efforts directed at protecting intellectual property rights? 3. What measures can be taken by the private sector to share actionable information on entities engaging in or supporting infringement of intellectual property rights? a. To the extent necessary, what government safeguards and conditions would be useful to facilitate sharing of such information? 4. What information developed from law enforcement and intelligence community threat assessments would be beneficial to the private sector in order to mitigate the risk of trade secret theft and economic espionage? 5. What additional measures by the U.S. Government would most significantly enhance efforts to combat trade secret theft and economic espionage? 6. When goods are imported into the United States, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (‘‘CBP’’) and other federal agencies charged with enforcing intellectual property rights and ensuring the safety of products entering the stream commerce, e.g., U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the Consumer Product Safety Commission, engage in a risk-based assessment of the level of risk that a shipment contains violative goods., and decides whether to inspect the shipment based on this risk determination. What steps can federal agencies and the private sector take to improve the risk assessment process so that high risk shipments may be quickly VerDate Mar<15>2010 18:18 Jul 19, 2012 Jkt 226001 identified and segmented from lower risk shipments? 7. What authentication tools and track and trace technologies would significantly enhance federal efforts to identify suspect counterfeit or pirated goods? 8. In a global economy that increasingly utilizes Internet based ecommerce and mobile platforms for transactions, the number of shipments sent through international mail and express carrier services has dramatically grown in recent years. Accordingly, law enforcement efforts directed at interdicting infringing goods shipped in the express and international mail environments have resulted in significant increases to seizure levels of infringing goods shipped through these modes of transit. What steps could be undertaken by CBP, its partner U.S. Government agencies, and the private sector to further improve detection of express carrier and international mail shipments containing infringing goods? 9. Are there ways in which CBP could improve its intellectual property rights e-recordation system to enhance ease of use and make it a more useful tool for intellectual property rights enforcement? 10. As laid out in IPEC’s 2011 Annual Report on Intellectual Property Enforcement, using our resources as efficiently as possible is a priority. Are there additional ways in which the U.S. Government could make more efficient use of its resources in protecting intellectual property? Background Frm 00076 • Reducing the number of countries that fail to enforce intellectual property rights; • Assisting other countries to more effectively enforce intellectual property rights; • Protecting intellectual property rights in other countries by: Æ Working with other countries to reduce intellectual property crimes in other countries; Æ Improving information sharing between law enforcement agencies in the U.S. and in other countries; and Æ Establishing procedures for consulting with interested groups within other countries; • Establishing programs to enhance the enforcement efforts of foreign governments by providing training and technical assistance designed to: Æ Enhance the efficiencies and minimize the duplication of U.S. Government training and assistance efforts; Æ Prioritize deployment of U.S. Government resources to those countries in which programs can be carried out most effectively and will have the greatest impact on reducing the number of infringing products in the relevant U.S. market, protecting the intellectual property rights of U.S. rights holders, and protecting the interests of U.S. persons otherwise harmed by infringements in other countries.
