DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment and Training Administration
[TA-W-32,617 and TA-W-32,617A]


Jolie Handbag, Incorporated Hialeah, Florida and Jolie Handbag, 
Incorporated Laredo, Texas; Amended Certification Regarding Eligibility 
To Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance

    In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 as amended 
(19 U.S.C. 2273) the Department of Labor issued a Certification 
Regarding Eligibility to Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on 
October 3, 1996 applicable to all workers of Jolie Handbag, 
Incorporated in Hialeah, Florida. The notice was published in the 
Federal Register on October 29, 1996 (61 FR 55821).
    At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the 
certification for workers of the subject firm. New findings show that 
worker separations occurred at Jolie Handbag's Laredo, Texas facility 
when it closed during April, 1997. The workers were engaged in 
employment related to the production of ladies' handbags.
    Accordingly, the Department is amending the certification to cover 
workers at the subject firms' Laredo, Texas location.
    The intent of the Department's certification is to include all 
workers of Jolie Handbag adversely affected by increased imports.
    The amended notice applicable to TA-W-31,617 is hereby issued as 
follows:

    ``All workers of Jolie Handbag, Hialeah, Florida (TA-W-32,617), 
and Laredo, Texas (TA-W-32,617A) who became totally or partially 
separated from employment on or after May 11, 1995, are eligible to 
apply for NAFTA-TAA under Section 250 of the Trade Act of 1974.''

    Signed at Washington, DC this 22nd day of May, 1997.
Russell T. Kile,
Program Manager, Policy and Reemployment Services, Office of Trade 
Adjustment Assistance.
