Defense Trade Working Group
Defense Trade Working Group : The Defense Trade Working Group (DTWG), consisting of officials from Commerce, Defense, State and USTR, was established in FY 1990 to coordinate agency policies and resources in areas concerned with defense expenditures. The group works with industry to identify ways to target industry needs and increase the success of industry export efforts by minimizing government impediments, streamlining procedures, and improve the availability of market information. The DTWG includes three subgroups:: The Defense Exports Working Group, chaired by Commerce, which helps implement Administration defense export policy and enhances U.S. government support for U.S. defense exporters; The European Defense Cooperation Group, chaired by State, which coordinates interagency input to U.S.-NATO International Staff for the NATO Council on National Armaments Directors (CNAD) study on defense trade; and: The Technology Transfer and Third Party Reexport Group, chaired by Defense, which works with industry to define a more proactive technology transfer regime that could be implemented within the limits of U.S. national security and industrial competitiveness interests
