_______________

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

Indonesia reiterates its commitment to implementing the recommendations and rulings of the DSB in these disputes. With regard to measures 1-17, necessary adjustments to the relevant MoA and MoT regulations have continuously been made and regularly reported to this Body. Indonesia notes continued concerns raised by New Zealand and the United States.

On measure 18, discussion between the Government and the Parliament has been taking place in spite of the challenging circumstances due to the COVID–19 pandemic. We believe that the provisions relevant to these disputes, in the draft amendment of the relevant laws, will be addressed accordingly and appropriately.

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