Title: ●Prohibition on Certain Procurements From the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (DFARS Case 2022-D008) 
Abstract:

DoD is proposing to amend the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement to implement section 848 of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year (FY) 2022 (Pub. L. 117-81).  Section 848 prohibits the use of funds to knowingly procure any products mined, produced, or manufactured wholly or in part by forced labor from the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (XUAR) or from an entity that has used labor from within or transferred from XUAR as part of a poverty alleviation or pairing assistance program.  It also requires the offeror to make a good faith effort to determine that forced labor from XUAR was not or will not be used in the performance of the contract.
