Compliance with notification obligations
Note by the Secretariat[1]
Revision
The
present document has been prepared to assist the consideration of agenda item
"overdue notifications" during the February 2018 meeting of the
Committee on Agriculture. It reflects Members' compliance with their
regular notification obligations as of 7 February 2018.[2]
In
preparing this overview, the Secretariat has largely relied on the Agriculture
Information Management System (AG-IMS).[3]
[1] This document has been prepared under the Secretariat's own
responsibility and is without prejudice to the positions of Members or to their
rights and obligations under the WTO.
[2] G/AG/2 and G/AG/2/Add.1 refer. This document therefore does not
reflect the status of ad hoc notification requirements, i.e. those
relating to: (i) the triggering of the special safeguard provisions
(Tables MA:3 and MA:4); (ii) the introduction or modification of domestic
support measures for which exemption from reduction commitments is claimed
(Table DS:2); and (iii) export prohibitions and restrictions (Table ER:1).
