I cannot understand why this bill would produce a duplicate mechanism for import licensing. as is suggested in the paragraph which I would eliminate. The imposition of an import licensing system to be administered and established by the U.S. Department of Commerce is simply unnecessarily burdensome and duplicative. The apparel and textile importers already deal with a too complex quota system. It is administered by the Customs Service. and the Customs Service does keep track of all separate entries. Customs entries for textile and apparel shipments now number over 125.000 per monththat is per month. not yearwith multiple products in each shipment.
