US embassy cable - 05DUBLIN670

Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

(U) On June 3, Post discussed reftel talking points with John 
Morrin, Assistant Principal for International Affairs in the 
Customs Enforcement Division of the Office of Revenue 
Commissioners.  Morrin said that Ireland would support the 
adoption of the Framework of Standards to Secure and 
Facilitate Global Trade at the June 23-25 session of the 
World Customs Organization (WCO) Council in Brussels.  He 
noted that Irish Customs Commissioner Josephine Feehily would 
attend the session.  He added that Ireland also favored the 
provision of resources for capacity-building activities 
relating to the Framework's implementation in developing 
countries, to be coordinated through the WCO's new 
Directorate for Capacity Building.  Morrin also said that 
Ireland regarded Michael Schmitz, Assistant Commissioner in 
the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Office of Regulations 
and Rulings, as a strong candidate for the post of WCO 
Director for Compliance and Facilitation.
