This is to notify that Rwanda has not established an authority competent to initiate and conduct an investigation within the meaning of Article 25.12 of the Agreement on Subsidies and Countervailing Measures ("the Agreement") and thus has not, to date, taken any countervailing actions within the meaning of Article 25.11 of the Agreement and does not anticipate taking any countervailing actions for the foreseeable future.[1] Rwanda shall promptly notify the Committee on Subsidies and Countervailing Measures ("the Committee") of any changes that may take place in this regard.
