REPORT OF THE TPRB FROM THE DIRECTOR‑GENERAL ON
TRADE‑RELATED DEVELOPMENTS

(MID‑OCTOBER 2022 TO MID‑MAY 2023)

Corrigendum

In page 43, para 3.95 should read:

Various export-related measures on foodstuffs were also subject to several specific questions in the Committee during this period. These questions were raised on Argentina's measures on beef and some grains; China's export prohibition on corn starch; Egypt's export restrictions on wheat, flour, lentils, rice and some other products; Hungary's measure on wheat and other grains; India's export restrictions on wheat and rice; Indonesia's export restrictions on palm oil; Malaysia's export restrictions on chicken and eggs; Mexico's export restriction on white corn; and Morocco's, Tajikistan's, and Türkiye's export restrictions on some vegetables. The main thrust of all these questions was on assessing the consistency of these measures with the relevant WTO rules, ascertaining how the interests of affected importing countries were considered and underlining the importance of timely export-restricting notification to the Committee. In some cases, the concerned Members subject to questions informed the Committee about an adjustment in the scope of the measure, its complete elimination or even declined having applied the export restriction.[1]
