The Secretary shall, not later than 1 year after the date of enactment of this Act, implement procedures to audit information and supporting records of sufficient numbers of imports of seafood and seafood products subject to the Seafood Import Monitoring Program to support statistically robust conclusions that the samples audited are representative of all seafood imports with respect to a given year. In developing the procedures required in subsection (a), the Secretary shall, not less frequently than once each year, revise such procedures to prioritize for audit those imports originating from countries— identified pursuant to sections 609(b) or 610(a) of the High Seas Driftnet Fishing Moratorium Protection Act ( 16 U.S.C. 1826j(b) or 1826k(a)) that have not yet received a subsequent positive certification pursuant to sections 609(d) or 610(c) of such Act, respectively; identified by an appropriate regional fishery management organization as being the flag state or landing location of vessels identified by other countries or regional fisheries management organizations as engaging in illegal, unreported, or unregulated fishing; identified as having human trafficking, including forced labor, in any part of the seafood supply chain, including on vessels flagged in such country and including feed for cultured production, in the most recent Trafficking in Persons Report issued by the Department of State in accordance with the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000 ( 22 U.S.C. 7101 et seq.); identified as producing goods that contain seafood using forced labor or oppressive child labor in the most recent List of Goods Produced by Child Labor or Forced Labor in accordance with the Trafficking Victims Protection Act ( 22 U.S.C. 7101 et seq.); and identified as at risk for human trafficking, including forced labor, in their seafood catching and processing industries by the report required in section 3563 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2020 ( Public Law 116–92 ).
