ANNEX
Since the period of 1986-88 which served as the basis for establishing the base total AMS and the
annual commitment levels in the area of domestic sup port, Hungary has experienced rather high levels
of inflation which, compared to those of our major trading partners can be qualified as excessive.
With the aim of allowing Members to carry out a realistic and accurate assessment of Hungary's
compliance with its reduction commitments in the area of domestic support, it is considered to be
necessary to indicate the total AMS commitment levels for 1996, 1997 and 1998 as adjusted for the
effects of inflation:
This amount equals: 1996: HUF  119,354 million
1997: HUF  140,874 million
1998: HUF  155,776 million
