Expresses the sense of the Senate that: (1) the Clinton Administration is commended for its efforts in encouraging integrity in international business transactions among our trading partners and competitors; (2) the United States Trade Representative, and the Secretaries of Commerce and of State should continue to raise the need for such integrity with other industrialized nations; (3) the United States should strongly urge universal adoption of certain principles set forth in the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 in order that adopting countries implement the means, including administrative, civil, and criminal sanctions, to combat bribery of foreign public officials; and (4) the U.S. Government should enter into negotiations to establish regulations for international financial institutions and international organizations that prohibit, and impose sanctions for, bribery of foreign public officials.
