                           Subpart A--General
 
Sec. 206.7  Confidential business information; furnishing of nonconfidential summaries thereof.

    (a) Nonrelease of information. Except as provided for in 
Sec. 206.17, in the case of an investigation under subpart B, C, D, F, 
or G of this part or an investigation under section 422 of the Trade Act 
and subpart E of this part, the Commission will not release information 
which the Commission considers to be confidential business information 
within the meaning of Sec. 201.6 of this chapter unless the party 
submitting the confidential business information had notice, at the time 
of submission, that such information would be released by the 
Commission, or such party subsequently consents to the release of the 
information. When appropriate, the Commission will include confidential 
business information in reports transmitted to the President and the 
Trade Representative; such reports will be marked as containing 
confidential business information, and a nonconfidential version of such 
report will be made available to the public.
    (b) Nonconfidential summaries. Except as the Commission may 
otherwise provide, a party submitting confidential business information 
shall also submit to the Commission, at the time it submits such 
information, a nonconfidential summary of the information. If a party 
indicates that the confidential business information cannot be 
summarized, it shall state in writing the reasons why a summary cannot 
be provided. If the Commission finds that a request for confidentiality 
is not warranted and if the party concerned is either unwilling to make 
the information public or to authorize its disclosure in generalized or 
summarized form, the Commission may disregard the submission.
