SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Electronic Availability
The list of excepted real estate foreign states and additional
information with respect to the Committee on Foreign Investment in the
United States (CFIUS or the Committee) are available on the Committee's
section of the Department of the Treasury website.
Notice of CFIUS Action
The Committee, taking into consideration the factors identified on
the Committee's section of the Department of the Treasury website, has
determined, under the authority of section 721 of the Defense
Production Act of 1950, as amended, and 31 CFR 802.1001(a), that: (1)
Australia has made significant progress toward establishing and
effectively utilizing a robust process to analyze foreign investments
for national security risks and to facilitate coordination with the
United States on matters relating to investment security; and (2)
Canada has made significant progress toward establishing and
effectively utilizing a robust process to analyze foreign investments
for national security risks and to facilitate coordination with the
United States on matters relating to investment security.
This determination satisfies the second criterion in the definition
of excepted real estate foreign state under 31 CFR 802.214 with respect
to Australia and Canada. Therefore, Australia and Canada are and will
remain excepted real estate foreign states absent further Committee
action and notice in the Federal Register.

Acting Assistant Secretary for International Markets.
