_______________

Indonesia submits this report pursuant to Article 21.6 of the Understanding on Rules and Procedures Governing the Settlement of Disputes (DSU).

As reported in the previous meeting, in order to further facilitate import procedures, Indonesia has issued the MoA Regulation No. 2/2020, which amends the MoA Regulation No. 39/2019 concerning Recommendations for Importation of Horticultural Products. Indonesia is now in the process of amending the MoT No. 44/2019 to be in line with the amended MoA regulation.

With respect to measure 18, Indonesia would like to draw the DSB’s attention that draft amendment of the relevant laws has been transmitted by the Government to the Parliament. The Government is currently waiting for a joint discussion with the Parliament.

Indonesia will continue to engage with New Zealand and the United States regarding matters related to the recommendations and rulings of the DSB.
