Agreements Act, the limits agreed upon

by the Governments of the United States

and Jamaica, as notified to the Uruguay

Round Textiles Monitoring Body (TMB),

are being amended to establish limits for

the period beginning on January 1, 1995

the ATC, these new limits supersede

1986, as amended and extended, and

the Memorandum of Understanding

(MOU) dated November 8, 1983
