The Committee, taking into consideration the factors identified on

determined, under the authority of section 721 of the Defense
Production Act of 1950, as amended, and 31 CFR 800.1001(a), that: (1)
the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland has
established and is 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) New Zealand has established and is effectively
utilizing a robust process to analyze foreign investments for national

Zealand and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
Therefore, New Zealand and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and
Northern Ireland are and will remain excepted foreign states absent
