EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES – TRADE DESCRIPTION OF SARDINES
Request to Join Consultations
Communication from Chile
The following communication, dated 3 May 2001, from the Permanent Mission of Chile to
the Permanent Delegation of the European Commission, the Permanent Mission of Peru and to the
Chairman of the Dispute Settlement Body, is circulated in accordance with Article 4.11 of the DSU.
_______________
I refer to the request for consultations by Peru in connection with the trade description of
sardines, circulated as document WT/DS231/1 on 23 April 2001.
The Chilean fishing industry – including the exploitation of sardine and sardine by-product
resources – is of considerable importance both in terms of share in the country's GDP and generation
of employment.  A substantial portion of this production is sold on foreign markets, much of it on the
Community market.  In view of these considerations and pursuant to Article 4.11 of the Dispute
Settlement Understanding, the Government of Chile asks to be joined in the above-mentioned
consultations on the basis of its substantial and systemic trade interest in the case.
I look forward to hearing from you concerning the date and place of the consultations and
take this opportunity to express once again the assurances of my highest consideration.

TOPIC 4*-ARTICLE 5.6"SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES"
Paper byNewZealand
Thefollowing communication, dated 8September 1997, hasbeenreceived fromthePermanent
Mission ofNewZealand.
_______________
Following discussions atthelastmeeting oftheAdHocGroup inJuly1997, NewZealand
agreed toprepare a“negative list”ofcircumstances thatwere not“special ”.
NewZealand ’sprevious discussion paper G/ADP/AHG/W/5 should bereadinconjunction
withthispaper. Itattempted todefine “special circumstances ”andtheconditions which could lead
toitsuseinterms ofArticle 5.6oftheAgreement.
Intheearlier discussion paper, itwassuggested thataconsistent approach totheconsideration
ofwhetheracircumstancemightbesufficientlyspecialtojustifyself-initiationbyinvestigatingauthorities
would betoconsider whether ornotthere areexisting provisions intheAgreement which would deal
withthesituation.
Onthisbasis, thefollowing isanon-exhaustive, negative listwhich members could consider
tobenotspecial:
- difficulties inascertaining thelevelofsupport foranapplication because there area
large number ofproducers orafragmented industry;
- difficulties relating totheavailability ofinformation toanindustry;
- Government agencies other thantherecognised investigating authority requesting the
initiation ofaninvestigation, except insituations where theagency concerned isclearly
acting “byoronbehalf oftheindustry ”asaco-ordinator ofinformation.
Theexclusion offragmented industries isbased ontheexistence ofFootnote 13,which provides
abasis fordealing withsuchindustries.
Theexclusion relating totheavailability ofinformation arises fromtheAgreement provisions
regarding information thatis“reasonably available ”.
Theexclusion ofGovernment agencies, other thanthose acting inaco-ordinating role,would
ensure thatundue Government influence hasnotbeenbrought tobearontheinvestigating authorities.

La Commission européenne a imposé des mesures de sauvegarde provisoires à l'importation
de certains produits en acier, avec effet à compter du 28 mars 2002.
Étant donné qu'il n'a pas été possible de résoudre ce problème dans le cadre de plusieurs
réunions et contacts avec les autorités compétentes de la CE, les autorités turques ont décidé de
recourir aux procédures multilatérales de l'OMC.
À cet égard, les autorités de mon pays m'ont chargé de demander la tenue de consultations
avec les Communautés européennes, conformément au paragraphe 4 de l'article 12 de l'Accord sur lessauvegardes.
La République de Turquie réserve ses droits pour ce qui est du recours aux mesures
correctives prévues dans l'Accord sur les sauvegardes et dans le Mémorandum d'accord sur le
réglement des différends.
J'attends votre réponse et souhaite qu'une date et un lieu mutuellement satisfaisant soient fixés
