MINUTES OF MEETING

HELD IN THE CENTRE WILLIAM RAPPARD
ON 26 OCTOBER 2022^[1]

                            Chairperson: H.E. Dr Athaliah Lesiba MOLOKOMME (Botswana)                          

Prior to the adoption of the Agenda: (i) the Chairperson welcomed all delegations participating in the present meeting of the DSB both in-person and remotely. She recalled a few technical instructions regarding the virtual participation of delegates. If a Member was unable to take the floor during the meeting because of a technical issue, the delegation could inform the Secretariat and that Agenda item would remain open until the delegation could take the floor. In the alternative, the item would remain open temporarily, the meeting would proceed to the next Agenda item, and the DSB would revert to the open item after the technical issue had been resolved. If a technical issue remained unresolved, the delegation had the option to send the statement to the Secretariat with the request that it be read out by the Secretariat on behalf of that delegation during the meeting so that the statement could be reflected in the minutes of the meeting; and (ii) the Chairperson made a short statement regarding item 4 of the proposed Agenda of the 28 April 2021 DSB meeting pertaining to the DS574 dispute. She said that, as Members recalled, that matter had been removed from the proposed Agenda to allow time for the Chair's consultations with each interested party regarding that Agenda item. At the present meeting, she wished to inform delegations that, like the previous Chair of the DSB, she continued to consult with each interested party on this matter and that those consultations were ongoing.

The DSB took note of the statements and adopted the Agenda.
