To amend the Export Control Reform Act of 2018 relating to licensing transparency, Sec. 2

Paragraph (1) of the new subsection (e) that this section adds at the end of section 1756 of the Export Control Reform Act of 2018 (50 U.S.C. 4815). The first report is due one year after enactment of the subsection, and further reports at least annually after that. The duty is subject to the availability of appropriations. Beyond the words quoted, the paragraph carries the rest of the subject matter: license applications and other requests for authorization for the export, reexport, release, and in-country transfer of items controlled under this part to covered entities.

That sentence, in plain words

A report must go to Congress. The first one is due one year after this rule starts. After that, one must come each year.

What this is about

The report is about checks on where goods went. It is also about firms asking to send goods out. The report is owed only if Congress gives money for it.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
