Attorney Matt Lapin presented "Working with UFLPA’s Interagency Forced Labor Enforcement Task Force (FLETF) Amid an Intensified Enforcement Landscape: What They are Looking for and How to Foster Positive Working Relationships," at the 11th Advanced Forum on Import Compliance & Enforcement. 

Session overview
Among its mandates, the UFLPA charged the Forced Labor Enforcement Task Force (FLETF), chaired by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), to develop a strategy for supporting the enforcement of the UFLPA. How will this input influence the scope of the FLETF’s enforcement strategy? How will the FLETF incorporate input from public and private stakeholders? This session brought clarity to the FLETF’s enforcement postures, as well as how to work with all the agencies involved to avoid penalties.
