Subject	Topic	Quote
Trade	China	The motor vehicle tariffs will eventually fall to 25%. Tariffs for U.S. priority agriculture products will quickly fall from an average 31.5% to 14.4%. If China signs the Information Technology Agreement (ITA), which should occur upon China's WTO accession, tariffs on all ITA goods - such as semiconductors and computer hardware - would be eliminated by January 1, 2005. Until accession takes place, however, tariffs will continue to act as an effective import barrier. (references)
