This delegation allows the President to act more quickly and flexibly in response to changing trade conditions or national security concerns. </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Examples of Delegated Authority: Examples of statutes that delegate tariff authority to the President include Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 (related to national security) and Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974 (related to unfair trade practices). </li> </ul></blockquote>
