SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Proceedings in the Investigation
On August 14, 2017, the President
issued a Memorandum (82 FR 39007)
instructing the Trade Representative to
determine whether to investigate under
section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974
(Trade Act) (19 U.S.C. 2411), laws,
policies, practices, or actions of the
Government of China that may be
unreasonable or discriminatory and that
may be harming American intellectual
property rights, innovation, or
technology development.
On August 18, 2017, after
consultation with the appropriate
advisory committees and the interagency Section 301 Committee, USTR
initiated an investigation into certain
acts, policies, and practices of the
Government of China related to
technology transfer, intellectual
property, and innovation. The notice of
initiation (82 FR 40213) solicited
written comments on, inter alia, four
categories of acts, policies and practices
of the Government of China:
1. The Chinese government reportedly
uses a variety of tools, including opaque
and discretionary administrative
approval processes, joint venture
requirements, foreign equity limitations,
procurements, and other mechanisms to
regulate or intervene in U.S. companies’
operations in China, in order to require
or pressure the transfer of technologies
and intellectual property to Chinese
companies. Moreover, many U.S.
companies report facing vague and
unwritten rules, as well as local rules
that diverge from national ones, which
are applied in a selective and nontransparent manner by Chinese
government officials to pressure
technology transfer.
