Notes:
9 p., The US has historically provided assistance to support development in Haiti. Over the last several years, Congress has attempted to promote Haiti's economic development through the use of trade preferences for Haitian products. In 2000, Congress extended preferences under the Caribbean Basin Economic Recovery Act to allow for duty-free treatment of apparel through the Caribbean Basin Trade Partnership Act (CBTPA). This report responds to a mandate in the Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008, which requires GAO to review Earned Import Allowance Program (EIAP) annually and conduct an evaluation of the program.

6 p., Over the last several years, Congress has attempted to promote Haiti's economic development through the use of trade preferences for Haitian products; and one trade preference provision originally created under HOPE II was the "3-for-1" Earned Import Allowance Program (EIAP). This report responds to a mandate in the Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008, which requires GAO to review EIAP annually and conduct an evaluation of the program. This review explores the extent to which the EIAP is currently being utilized, as well as trends and developments over the past year.
