Domestic subsidy Sample Clauses

Domestic subsidy. In determining whether a subsidy (other than a subsidy described in subparagraph (B) or (C)) is a specific subsidy, in law or in fact, TITLE 19—CUSTOMS DUTIES to an enterprise or industry within the juris- diction of the authority providing the sub- sidy, the following guidelines shall apply: (i) Where the authority providing the subsidy, or the legislation pursuant to which the authority operates, expressly limits access to the subsidy to an enter- prise or industry, the subsidy is specific as a matter of law.
