A follow up from this entry. From The Advertiser - U.S. overturns wheat bans

THE U.S. has overturned its blacklisting of Australia's wheat exporter AWB in the wake of the Saddam Hussein regime kickbacks scandal. The U.S. Agriculture Department last week suspended AWB's U.S. arm from a major export credit program in response to findings $300 million in kickbacks were transferred from AWB to Saddam under the corrupted Oil-for-Food program.
