This document amends the Customs Regulations by adopting final rules that clarify the procedures to be followed when subpoenas or other demands of courts and other authorities, except Congress, are issued to compel the disclosure or production of Customs information, i.e., documents, information, or employee testimony, for use in federal, state, local, and foreign proceedings. The procedures will be applicable to current and former Customs employees and to litigants who seek to compel Customs employees to disclose or produce Customs information. Specifically, the amendments will place in the Office of the Chief Counsel the authority to make determinations concerning the disclosure of such information to ensure the more efficient use of Customs personnel resources in responding to requests in a timely manner. The amendments also restructure the general organizational scheme of Part 103 of the Customs Regulations to clarify their application.
