On September 10, 2020, the General Services Administration (“GSA”) hosted a webinar related to its implementation of Section 889 of the 2019 NDAA – the ban relating to certain Chinese telecom companies – and associated updated FAR clauses.

GSA began by clarifying what it cannot do – GSA is not able to provide contractors with a comprehensive list of subsidiaries and affiliates of the Chinese companies (the U.S. government has not released such a list), and it is not in a position to provide more insight into the definition of “use” under the rules.
