GAO views this newly issued plan as a status report on progress to date. The report identifies some potentially major changes that have resulted from the Committee's deliberations, including the creation of a network of "one-stop shop" trade promotion centers. In addition, the report clearly commits the administration to completing the difficult tasks of setting governmentwide priorities and creating a unified budget for export promotion activities as part of the fiscal year 1995 budget. GAO is also encouraged by the plan's commitment to a more systematic use of measures to evaluate trade promotion programs and by its proposal to better coordinate trade promotion and trade policy agencies. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-T-GGD-93-48/html/GAOREPORTS-T-GGD-93-48.htm GAO/T-GGD-93-48 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-T-GGD-93-48 Testimony GAO/T-GGD-93-48; Export Promotion: Initial Assessment of Governmentwide Strategic Plan; Exporting International trade Sales promotion Interagency relations Small business assistance Commodity marketing Foreign trade policies Government guaranteed loans Planning International economic relations SBA Export Revolving Line of Credit Program
