emigration criteria of sections 402 and 409 of the Trade Act of 1974. 
This action allowed for the continuation of most-favored-nation (MFN) 
status for Romania and certain other activities without the requirement 
of an annual waiver.
  As required by law, I am submitting an updated report to the Congress 
concerning emigration laws and policies of Romania. You will find that 
the report indicates continued Romanian compliance with U.S. and 
international standards in the area of emigration policy.
                                                  William J. Clinton.  
  The White House, January 3, 1996.
