Search Primer

Term list: Separate terms with spaces, not commas or semicolons.

Multi-word term: Place inside quotes to ensure an exact match (e.g. "China import").

Acronyms: Use all capital letters to ensure the search is not looking for that letter sequence instead.

Required term: If a term must be included in any resulting articles, prefix it with a plus sign (e.g., +CBP).

Excluded term: If a term should be excluded from any articles being found, prefix it with a minus sign (e.g., -ruling).

Singular form: Always use the singular form when doing multi-word terms (e.g. "russian export control" instead of "russian export controls").

Shortest word form: When you have different word forms in a quoted (multi-word) term, you want to only include the shortest version if it is the last part of the expression (e.g., "entity list" instead of "entity listing" or "entity listed").

Palm Oil Company Working to Remove WRO
October 16, 2020 |Customs

FGV Holdings Berhad is planning to hire a third-party auditor as part of an effort to convince CBP that forced labor isn't used in its palm oil supply chain, the company said in an Oct. 15 news release. Palm oil and palm oil products from the Malaysian company are subject to a withhold release order issued last month (see 2009300012). “FGV has communicated with the CBP via conference call to seek clarification on its investigation findings and on steps expected to be taken by FGV for the revocation of the WRO,” it said. “Information around the CBP’s investigation findings is imperative to enable FGV to address and resolve any remaining gaps in its practices.” CBP told FGV “that it would consider a petition for the revocation of the WRO together with information or reports arising from audits from credible, unbiased, third-party auditing firms,” the company said. “In relation to this, FGV is already in communication with several independent organisations to explore options for an imminent audit of FGV’s operations. FGV expects to finalise the appointment of such an audit firm in the next couple of weeks and to proceed with the audits shortly after.”
