Description

In regulating exports of dual-use items, which have both commercial & military applications, the Dept. of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry & Security (BIS) seeks to allow U.S. companies to compete globally while minimizing the risk of items falling into the wrong hands. In so doing, BIS faces the challenge of weighing U.S. nat. security & economic interests, which at times can be divergent or even competing. In light of the Sept. 2001 terror attacks, this report examined BIS’s dual-use export control system: (1) evaluations of & changes to the system; (2) screening of export license applications against its watchlist; & (3) actions to correct weaknesses previously identified. Includes recommendations. Charts & tables.
