    SATELLITE EXPORT CONTROLS
    Committee on Governmental Affairs: Subcommittee on International
    Security, Proliferation, and Federal Services concluded hearings to
    examine whether the Department of Commerce commercial satellite export
    control policy and process toward China is adequate to prevent
    technology transfers which pose a threat to United States security,
    after receiving testimony from John D. Holum, Acting Under Secretary of
    State for Arms Control and International Security Affairs; William A.
    Reinsch, Under Secretary of Commerce for Export Administration; and
    Frank W. Miller, Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense.

    [Note: According to Julie Sander no testimony was presented at the
    hearing. Chair Senator Cochran distributed charts and documents. Three
    of the documents (15 pp.) describe Hughes Aircraft Company's 1992-93
    application for commercial satellite export license and conditions for
    transfer of data and technology. Copies Hughes' November 30, 1992 request
    (9 pp.) and a Commerce response (2 pp.) are poor but are being transcribed.
    See the third (4 pp.) describing concerns of the Department of Defense.
