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 June 2018 meeting of the Committee
on Agriculture. It reflects Members' compliance with their regular
notification obligations as of 29 May 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).
