Although the implementation of the TPM provided a minimal amount of much needed relief. the failure of the administration to properly administer its own program. resulted in a continued high level of imports bv merely shifting the bizgest exnorter from Japan to the European nations. After a reasonable period of time had elapsed demonstrating this loophole in the program. industry brought it to the attention of administration officials. Their response was to do nothing but offer undocumented explanations on the need to continue the TPM as is until more time had elapsed. More time would eliminate this shifting of import levels and result in an import reduction. they told us. Well. after 2 years.
