  1  INTRODUCTION  
1. Pursuant to a request of the Chairman of the Trade Policy Review Body, to discuss "ways to 
improve the timeliness and completeness of notifications and other information flows on trade 
measures"  in the context of the Agreement on Subsidies and Countervailing Measures ("the 
SCM Agreement"), the Committee on Subsidies and Countervailing Measures ("the Committee") 
discussed this matter in several informal and regular meetings held since 2009. Docume nt 
G/SCM/W/546  dated 28 April 2009 which contained information on the notification obligations under 
the SCM Agreement and the level of compliance with each of these obligations, was circulated as a 
background Note for the Committee's discussions in this regard. In the course of the meetings held 
since 2009, Members indicated that updating this document on a regular basis would be useful for 
the Committee's future work on improving transparency in notifications. This fifteenth revision  
reflects developments since March  2023.  
2  NOTIFICATION PROVISIONS IN THE SCM AGREEMENT  
2. The notification requirements of the SCM Agreement1 can be divided into regular notification 
requirements, which apply in principle to all Members, and special notificat ion requirements, which 
apply to Members invoking particular provisions.   
3. With respect to regular notification requirements, Part VII of the SCM Agreement ("Notification 
and Surveillance") contains requirements regarding the notification of subsidies (Arti cle 25.1), 
countervailing measures (Article 25.11) and competent authorities that conduct countervailing duty 
investigations (Article 25.12). In addition, Article 32.6 in Part XI of the SCM  Agreement ("Final 
Provisions") requires notification of laws and r egulations relevant to the SCM Agreement.   
4. The SCM Agreement contains special notification requirements regarding certain aspects of 
the provisions of Article 27 on Special and Differential Treatment of Developing Country Members. 
Special notification requ irements also applied under provisions, which are no longer applicable, on 
non-actionable subsidy programmes (Article 8) and on transitional arrangements regarding existing 
programmes (Article 28) and transformation into a market economy (Article 29).   
2.1  Regular Notifications  
2.1.1   Notification of Subsidies under Article 25  
2.1.1.1   Articles 25.1 -7 
5. Article 25.1 of the SCM Agreement provides that, without prejudice to the provisions of 
Article  XVI:1 of the GATT 19942, Members shall make their subsidy notifications not later  than 
30 June of each year.3 Article 25.2 of the Agreement provides that "Members shall notify any subsidy 
as defined in paragraph  1 of Article  1, which is specific within the meaning of Article  2, granted or 
maintained within their territories".4 
6. Article 25.3 of the SCM Agreement contains certain requirements regarding the content of 
subsidy notifications. Thus, "the content of notifications should be sufficiently specific to enable other 
Members to evaluate the trade effects and to understand the operat ion of notified subsidy 
programmes", and Members are obligated to ensure that their subsidy notifications contain 
information on the form, amount, policy objectives and/or purpose and duration of the subsidy and 
statistical data permitting an assessment of  the trade effects of the subsidy.  
 
1 The relevant provisions of the SCM Agreement are reproduced in Annex A .  
2 Article XVI:1 of the GATT 1994 requires the notification of subsidies, including any form of price or 
income support, which have an impact on the exports or imports of the product benefiting from the subsidy.  
3 As ex plained below, based on a decision adopted by the Committee in May 2001, Members submit 
subsidy notifications under Article 25.1 of the SCM Agreement every second yea r. Infra, para. 12. 
4 Article 25.6 provides that a Member must also provide a nil notification if it considers that there are no 
measures in its territory that require notification. Article 25.7 recognizes that notification of a measure u nder 
Article 25 is without prejudice to its legal status under the GATT 1994 and the SCM Agreement.   G/SCM/W/546/Rev. 15

  7. In July 1995, the Committee adopted a questionnaire format for subsidy notifications under 
Article 25 of the SCM  Agreement and under Article XVI of the GATT 1994 ( G/SCM/6 ).5 This format 
replaced an existing format for notifications under Article XVI:1 of the GATT 1947 that had been 
adopted by the GATT Contracting Parties.6 In November 2003, the Committee adopted a revised 
version of this questionnaire format for subsidy notificat ions ( G/SCM/6/Rev.1 ).7 The adoption of the 
original format for subsidy notifications in 1995 and the adoption of the revised format for subsidy 
notifications in 2003 were based on discussions in the Working Party on Subsidy Notifications, which 
the Committee had established in February 1995 pursuant to footnote 54 to Article 25.3 of the 
SCM Agreement.8  
8. The status of subsidy notifications under Article 25.1 by WTO Members since 1995, as well as 
the periods covered by the last subsidy notif ication received from each Member, are shown in the 
tables in Annex B .9 The chart below illustrates the trends in the status of compliance with the 
obligations to notify subsidies during the pe riod 1995 -2023.10 It shows that the number of Members 
that have made subsidy notifications to date (either by notifying subsidies or by submitting a nil 
notification) has remained essentially stable over this period  except the last two  notification cycle s. 
The number of Members that have failed to make a notification , however, rose  sharply, as WTO 
membership has increased.

8 G/SCM/M/1 , para. 84.  
9 The state of compliance with the subsidy notification provisions of Article 25 has repeatedly been the 
subject of discussion in the Committee. See, e.g. G/SCM/M/123 , paras. 77 -110; G/SCM/M/121 , paras. 94 -107; 
G/SCM/M/119 , paras.107 -119.  
10 The data in the chart are structured on the basis of the fourteen  new and full subsidy notifications that 
Members have been required to make to date. Members were required to submit their 2023 new and full 
notifications by 30 June 2023. The data reflect the total f igures for each such notification "cycle", based on 
notifications received to date ( 2 October  2023). It should be noted that certain notifications were made after the 
year in which they were due. The timing for a newly -acceded Member's obligation to submit  its first subsidy 
notification is determined in its protocol of accession.  56 52 63 65 70 72 73 72 78 78 76 75 65 5029 2222 21 20 18 27 33 31 30 26 1614927 5958 60 59 61 53 48 50 54 62 73 85 105112133 143 146 149 151 153 153 159162 164 164 164 164

  9. Indeed, given the significant increase in the number of WTO Members since 199511, looking 
at the number of Members that notified and those that did not as a percentage of the tot al number 
of WTO Members in the year in which the notifications were due may be more informative than the 
absolute numbers shown in the chart above. The table below is presented for that purpose  which 
presents the trend of subsidy notifications between 1995 and 2023. A significant decline is observed 
in the percentage of Members notifying subsidies, decreasing from 50% in 1995 to 30% by 2023. 
Simultaneously, the p ercentage  of Members making a "nil" n otification has also reduced, moving 
from 26% in 1995 to 5% in 2023.  When combining the data for those that notified subsidies and 
those that made a "nil" notification, the overall rate of notifications has seen a notable decline. In 
1995, 76% of Members p rovided some form of notification, and this decreased to 3 5% by 2023.  On 
the other hand, the percentage of Members that did not submit  any form of notification has increased  
remarkably. Starting at 24% in 1995, this figure has almost tripled, reaching 6 5% in 2023.

2.1.1.2   Articles 25.8 -10 
10. Article 25.8 of the SCM Agreement stipulates that any Member may make a written request 
for information on the nature and extent of a subsidy granted or maintained by another Member, or 
for explanation why a specific measure is not considered as subject to  the requirement of notification. 
A list of requests made under this provision is presented in the table in Annex C .  
11. Article 25.10 provides that where a Member fails to notify a subsidy the not ification of which 
is required under the SCM Agreement, any other Member may bring this matter to the attention of 
the Member failing to notify. If the subsidy is still not notified, such Member may bring the matter 
to the notice of the Committee. The tabl e in Annex D  presents a list of notifications made under this 
provision.12  
2.1.1.3   Article 26.1  
12. Article 26.1 stipulates that the Committee shall examine new and full notifications of Members 
in special sessions to be held every third year a nd that updating notifications made in the intervening 
years are to be examined at each regular meeting of the Committee. In May 2001, the Committee 
decided that new and full subsidy notifications would be made every two years and that the annual 
updating notifications would be de -emphasised.13 The Committee extended this decision in 2003 and 
2005.14  
 
11 The number of WTO Members was 112 as at the end of 1995 and is now 164. The EU and each of its 
member States are counted individually in the figures in the chart and table . Thus , for example, for 2023, the EU 
and its 27 member States are counted as 28 WTO Members. Please note that the United Kingdom is considered 
as one of the EU member States with respect to the new and full subsidy notifications  prior to  the 2021 
notifications .  
12 The tables in Annexes C and D only list documents that contain explicit references to Articles 25.8 or 
25.10. These tables thus do not include the vast majority of the documents circulated in the G/SCM/Q2/ ... series, 
which contain questions and answers on subsidy noti fications or on non -notified subsidies without expressly 
referring to Articles 25.8 or 25.10.

  13. The Committee has adopted procedures for the review of new and full subsidy notifications, 
which provide that such review shall take place at special meetings  and be based on written 
questions and replies ( G/SCM/117 ).15 
2.1.2   Notification of Countervailing Measures  
14. Article 25.11 of the SCM Agreement requires Members to notify, without delay, all preliminary 
or final actions taken with respect to countervailing duties. It also stipulates that Members shall 
submit, on a semi -annual basis, reports on any countervailing duty actions taken within the 
preceding six months. In June 1995, the Committee agreed on a standard format for semi -annual 
reports16 and on the minimum information to be provided in reports under  Article  25.11 on all 
preliminary or final countervailing actions.17 At its regular meeting on 20  October 2009, the 
Committee adopted r evised versions of these two notification formats.18 The table in Annex E  shows 
the state of the notifications of semi -annual reports of countervailing measures since 1995.   
15. There is a significant number of Members that do not have a competent authority to conduct 
countervailing duty investigations and which theref ore have not imposed any countervailing 
measures and are unlikely to do so in the foreseeable future. In order to relieve these Members from 
the obligation to submit semi -annual reports of countervailing actions, the Committee, at its regular 
meeting on 20  October 200919, adopted a one -time notification format.20 A Member submitting this 
type of notification will not be expected to submit semi -annual reports of c ountervailing actions until 
such time a s it sets up a competent authority and starts conducting investigations. One -time 
notifications are circulated in the G/SCM/N/2 02/... series. A list of these notifications received so far 
is presented in Annex F .  
2.1.3   Notification of Competent Authorities  
16. Article 25.12 of the SCM Agreement stipulates that Members shall notify to the Committee 
which of their authorities are competent to conduct countervailing duty investigations in t heir 
territories and the domestic procedures that govern the initiation and conduct of such investigations. 
A list of Members which have submitted notifications under Article 25.12 is contained in Annex G .  
2.1.4   Notification of Countervailing Duty Legislation  
17. Article 32.6 of the SCM Agreement provides that Members shall notify to the Committee the 
changes in their laws and regulations relevant to the Agreement and in the administration of such 
laws and  regulations. A list of Members which have submitted notifications under Article 32.6 is 
contained in Annex H .  
 
15 These procedures were originally adopted in connection with the review of the 2005 new and full subsidy 
notifications. In April 2007, the Committee decided to apply the same procedures to the review of  the 2007 new 
and full notifications ( G/SCM/M/60 , para. 45). In May 2009, it decided to apply  them to the review of the 2009 
new and full subsidy notifications ( G/SCM/M /68, para. 36). In May 2011, the Committee decided to conduct the 
review of the 2011 new and full subsidy notifications also under the same procedures ( G/SCM/M/76 , para. 67). 
In April 2013, the Committee decided to conduct the review of the 2013 new and full subsidy notifications also 
under the same procedures ( G/SCM/M/85 , para. 51). In April 2015, the Committee again decided to conduct the 
review of notifications under these procedures ( G/SCM/M/93 , para. 42).  In April  2017, the Committee decided 
to conduct the review of the 201 7 new and full subsidy notifications also under the same pr ocedures 
(G/SCM/M/101 , para s. 53-54). In April 201 9, the Committee again decided to conduct the review of notifications 
under these procedures ( G/SCM/M/109 , para. 49). In April 20 21, the Committee decided to conduct the review 
of notifications under these procedures ( G/SCM/M/115 , para s. 101 -102). In May 2023, the Committee again 
decided to conduct the review of noti fications under these procedures ( G/SCM/M/123 , para s. 67-68).

  2.2  Special Notifications  
2.2.1   Notification of Non -Actionable Subsidies under Article 8.3  
18. Article 8.3 of the SCM Agreement required the notification of non -actionable subsidies.  
Article  8 is no longer applicable. No notification was received under Article 8.3 during the period in 
which Article 8 was in force.   
2.2.2   Notifications Related to the Provi sions of Article 27 Regarding Special and 
Differential Treatment of Developing Country Members  
2.2.2.1   Notifications Under Procedures Adopted for Extensions under Article 27 of the 
SCM Agreement  
19. Article 27 of the Agreement contains a series of special and differential treatment provisions 
for developing Members. Among these provisions is Article 27.2(b), which established an eight -year 
period from the date of entry into force of the WTO Agreement for the phase out of export subsidies 
by those developing Mem bers not covered by Annex VII of the Agreement. Article  27.4 establishes 
a mechanism pursuant to which this phase -out period can be extended under certain conditions. On 
27 July 2007, the General Council adopted procedures21 regarding the continuation of 
previously -granted Article 27.4 extensions for certain subsidy programmes.22 These procedures 
require annual updating notifications in respect of the programmes benefitting fr om extensions. At 
its fall 2012 regular meeting, the Committee granted the final e xtensions pursuant to these 
procedures, for calendar year 2013, based on the information notified in 2012.23 The table in Annex  I 
lists the programmes of the nineteen Members covered by these extensions. The final two-year 
phase -out period referred to in A rticle 27.4 began on 1 January 2014 for these programmes, such 
that the export subsidies thereunder h ad to be eliminated not later than 31  December 2015.24 The 
Members with extensions were required to provide transp arency notifications in respect of each o f 
the two  years of phase -out (in 2015 covering 2014, and in 2016 covering 2015).25 To date, fifteen  
of the beneficiary Members have submitted these final transparency notifications which were 
circulated in the G/SCM/N/299/...  series.26 
2.2.2.2   Notifications in Connection with the Export Competitiveness of a Member in a 
Given Product (Article 27.6)  
20. Article 27.5 of the SCM Agreement provides that a developing Member which reaches export 
competitiveness in a given product has to phase out its export subsidies for that product within 
two years. For Members in Annex VII which reach export competitiveness, this period is  eight years. 
Under Article 27.6, export competitiveness may be determined either on the basis of a notification 
by the developing Member at issue, or on the basis of a computation by the Secretariat conducted 
at the request of any Member. No developing Me mber has made such a notification of its own export 
competitiveness.  
2.2.2.3   Notification of Privatization Subsidies under Article 27.13  
21. Article 27.13 of the SCM Agreement exempts, for a limited period of time, certain subsidies 
granted in connection with privati zation programmes provided certain conditions are met. The table 
in Annex J  provides a list of notifications made under this provision.   
2.2.3   Notifications under the Transitional Arrangements Set Out  in Article 28.1(a)  
22. Article 28.1(a) of the SCM Agreement requires the notification of subsidy programmes in 
existence before the date a Member signed the WTO Agreement and which were inconsistent with 
 
21 WT/L/691 .  
22 The procedures on which the extensions were originally granted are contained in document G/SCM/39 .

provision is no longer applicable.   
2.2.4   Notifications under the Transitional Arrangements Set Out in Article 29.3  
23. Article 29.3 of the SCM Agreement requires t he notification of certain subsidies granted by 
Members which were in a process of transformation from a centrally -planned economy into a market 
economy. Annex L  shows the notifications made und er Article 29.3. This provision is no longer 
applicable.   
3  NOTIFICATION OF SUBSIDIES IN THE CONTEXT OF WTO ACCESSIONS  
24. In the context of accessions to the WTO, applicants are expected to provide information on 
(export) subsidies in the chapter on policies af fecting trade in goods of the memorandum on their 
foreign trade regime.27 Applicants typically make a commitment to submit a subsidy notification 
under Article 25 of the SCM Agreement after the entry into force of their protocol of accession:   
"The represe ntative of [X] confirmed that any subsidy programmes would be 
administered in conformity with the Agreement on Subsidies and Countervailing 
Measures and that all necessary information on programmes would be notified to the 
Committee on Subsidies and Counte rvailing Measures in accordance with Article 25 of 
the Agreement upon entry into force of [X's] Protocol of Accession."28 
25. In most cases, this commitment is contained in the re levant working party report.29  
_______________  
 
 
  
 
27 See the outline format for a memorandum on a foreign trade regime in document WT/ACC/1 . Applicants 
have also frequently provided information on subsidies by submitting (draft) subsidy notifications under Article  25 
of the SCM Agreement during th e accession process.   
28 P. J. Williams, A Handbook on Accession to the WTO  (2008), pp. 92 -93; WTO Secretariat, Technical 
Note on the Accession Process , WT/ACC/10/Rev.3 . 28 November 2005, pp.127 -131.  
29 In the case of China, paragraph 10.1 of the Protocol of Accession provides that China sh all provide a 
subsidy notification under Article 25 of the SCM Agreement, while Annex 5 of the Protocol contains a notification 
submitted by China  during the accession process. As reflected in paragraph 173 of the Working Party Report on 
China's accession to the WTO, the Working Party took note of a commitment by China to "progressively work 
towards a full notification of subsidies, as contemplated by Article 25 of the SCM  Agreement".   
In the case of Russian Federation, a specific timeline for the submissio n of this notification - 180 days 
after accession - was included in the Working Party Report on Russia's Accession (at Table 38 of Annex 2).  
In the case of Kazakhstan, the Working Party Report on Kazakhstan's Accession stipulated that the 
relevant notifica tion was to be submitted 120 days after accession (Table 4 at  para. 1150).  
In the case of Afghanistan, the Working Party Report on Afghanistan's Accession provides that all 
necessary information on notifiable programmes would be notified to the WTO Committ ee on Subsidies and 
Countervailing Measures according to Article 25 of the Agreement upon entry into force of Afghanistan's Protocol 
of Accession.  
In the case of Liberia, the Working Party Report on Liberia's Accession stipulated that the relevant 
notification was to be submitted within six months of the entry into force of Liberia's Protocol of Accession . G/SCM/W/546/ Rev.15

ANNEX A  
RELEVANT PROVISIONS OF THE SCM AGREEMENT  
Article 8  
 
Identification of Non -Actionable Subsidies  
 
8.3 A subsidy programme for which the provisions of paragraph  2 are invoked shall be notified in 
advance of its implementation to the Committee in accordance with the pr ovisions of Part  VII. Any 
such notification shall be sufficiently precise to enable other Members to evaluate the consistency of 
the programme with the conditions and criteria provided for in the relevant provisions of 
paragraph  2. Members shall also provi de the Committee with yearly updates of such notifications, 
in particular by supplying information on global expenditure for each programme, and on any 
modification of the programme. Other Members shall have the right to request information about 
individua l cases of subsidization under a notified programme.34 
_______________  
 34 It is recognized that nothing in this notification provision requires the provision of confidential 
information, including confidential business information.  
 
Article 25  
 
Notificati ons 
 
25.1 Members agree that, without prejudice to the provisions of paragraph  1 of Article  XVI of 
GATT  1994, their notifications of subsidies shall be submitted not later than 30  June of each year 
and shall conform to the provisions of paragraphs  2 through 6.  
 
25.2 Members shall notify any subsidy as defined in paragraph  1 of Article  1, which is specific within 
the meaning of Article  2, granted or maintained within their territories.  
 
25.3 The content of notifications should be sufficien tly specific to enable other Members to evaluate 
the trade effects and to understand the operation of notified subsidy programmes.  In this connection, 
and without prejudice to the contents and form of the questionnaire on subsidies54, Members shall 
ensure that their notifications contain the following information:  
 
(i) form of a subsidy (i.e. grant, loan, tax concession, etc.);  
 
(ii) subsidy per unit or, in cases where this is not possible, the total amount or 
the annual amount budgeted for that subs idy (indicating, if possible, the 
average subsidy per unit in the previous year);  
 
(iii) policy objective and/or purpose of a subsidy;  
 
(iv) duration of a subsidy and/or any other time -limits attached to it;  
 
(v) statistical data permitting an assessment o f the trade effects of a subsidy.  
 
25.4 Where specific points in paragraph  3 have not been addressed in a notification, an explanation 
shall be provided in the notification itself.  
 
25.5 If subsidies are granted to specific products or sectors, the notific ations should be organized 
by product or sector.  
 
25.6 Members which consider that there are no measures in their territories requiring notification 
under paragraph  1 of Article  XVI of GATT  1994 and this Agreement shall so inform the Secretariat 
in writing . G/SCM/W/546/Rev. 15 
 
- 9 - 
 
   
25.7 Members recognize that notification of a measure does not prejudge either its legal status 
under GATT  1994 or this Agreement, or the effects under this Agreement, or the nature of the 
measure itself.  
 
25.8 Any Member may, at any time, make a writte n request for information on the nature and 
extent of any subsidy granted or maintained by another Member (including any subsidy referred to 
in Part  IV), or for an explanation of the reasons for which a specific measure has been considered 
as not subject t o the requirement of notification.  
 
25.9 Members so requested shall provide such information as quickly as possible and in a 
comprehensive manner, and shall be ready, upon request, to provide additional information to the 
requesting Member. In particular, they shall provide sufficient details to enable the other Member to 
assess their compliance with the terms of this Agreement. Any Member which considers that such 
information has not been provided may bring the matter to the attention of the Committee.  
 
25.10  Any Member which considers that any measure of another Member having the effects of a 
subsidy has not been notified in accordance with the provisions of paragraph  1 of Article  XVI of 
GATT  1994 and this Article may bring the matter to the attention of  such other Member. If the 
alleged subsidy is not thereafter notified promptly, such Member may itself bring the alleged subsidy 
in question to the notice of the Committee.  
 
25.11  Members shall report without delay to the Committee all preliminary or final  actions taken 
with respect to countervailing duties. Such reports shall be available in the Secretariat for inspection 
by other Members. Members shall also submit, on a semi -annual basis, reports on any countervailing 
duty actions taken within the precedi ng six months. The semi -annual reports shall be submitted on 
an agreed standard form.  
 
25.12  Each Member shall notify the Committee (a) which of its authorities are competent to initiate 
and conduct investigations referred to in Article  11 and (b) its dome stic procedures governing the 
initiation and conduct of such investigations.  
_______________  
54 The Committee shall establish a Working Party to review the contents and form of the questionnaire 
as contained in BISD 9S/193 -194.  
Article 26  
 
Surveillance  
 
26.1 The Committee shall examine new and full notifications submitted under paragraph  1 of 
Article  XVI of GATT  1994 and paragraph  1 of Article  25 of this Agreement at special sessions held 
every third year. Notifications submitted in the intervening years ( updating notifications) shall be 
examined at each regular meeting of the Committee.  
Article 27  
 
Special and Differential Treatment of Developing Country Members  
 
27.4 Any developing country Member referred to in paragraph  2(b) shall phase out its export 
subsidies within the eight -year period, preferably in a progressive manner. However, a developing 
country Member shall not increase the level of its export subsidies55, and shall eliminate them within 
a period shorter than that provided for in this paragraph  when the use of such export subsidies is 
inconsistent with its development needs. If a developing country Member deems it necessary to 
apply such subsidies beyond the 8 -year period, it shall not later than one year before the expiry of 
this period enter i nto consultation with the Committee, which will determine whether an extension 
of this period is justified, after examining all the relevant economic, financial and development needs 
of the developing country Member in question. If the Committee determines  that the extension is 
justified, the developing country Member concerned shall hold annual consultations with the 
Committee to determine the necessity of maintaining the subsidies. If no such determination is made G/SCM/W/546/ Rev.15 
 
- 10 - 
 
  by the Committee, the developing country Member shall phase out the remaining export subsidies 
within two years from the end of the last authorized period.  
27.5 A developing country Member which has reached export competitiveness in any given product 
shall phase out its export subsidies for such product(s) over a period of two years.  However, for a 
developing country Member which is referred to in Annex VII and which has reached export 
competitiveness in one or more products, export subsidies on such products shall be gradually 
phased out over a p eriod of eight  years.  
 
27.6 Export competitiveness in a product exists if a developing country Member's export of that 
product has reached a share of at least 3.25  per cent in world trade of that product for two 
consecutive calendar years. Export competitiveness shall exist either (a) on the basis of notification 
by the developing country Member having reached export competitiveness, or (b) on the basis of a 
computation undertaken by the Secretariat at the request of any Member. For the purpose of this 
paragraph, a product is defined as a section heading of the Harmonized System Nomenclature. The 
Committee shall review the operation of this provision five  years from the date of the entry into 
force of the WTO Agreement.  
 
27.13  The provisions of Part  III shall not apply to direct forgiveness of debts, subsidies to cover 
social costs, in whatever form, including relinquishment of government revenue and other transfer 
of liabilities when such subsidies are granted within and directly linked to a privati zation programme 
of a developing country Member, provided that both such programme and the subsidies involved are 
granted for a limited period and notified to the Committee and that the programme results in 
eventual privatization of the enterprise concerne d.  
_______________  
55 For a developing country Member not granting export subsidies as of the date of entry into force of 
the WTO Agreement, this paragraph shall apply on the basis of the level of export subsidies granted in 1986.  
Article 28  
 
Existing Programmes  
 
28.1 Subsidy programmes which have been established within the territory of any Member before 
the date on which such a Member signed the WTO Agreement and which are inconsistent with the 
provisions of this Agreement shall be:  
 
(a) notified to the Committee not later than 90  days after the date of entry into force of 
the WTO Agreement for such Member;  and 
 
(b) brought into conformity with the provisions of this Agreement within three years of 
the date of entry into force of the WTO Agree ment for such Member and until then 
shall not be subject to Part  II. 
 
28.2 No Member shall extend the scope of any such programme, nor shall such a programme be 
renewed upon its expiry.   
 
Article 29  
 
Transformation into a Market Economy  
 
29.1 Members in the process of transformation from a centrally -planned into a market, free -
enterprise economy may apply programmes and measures necessary for such a transformation.  
 
29.2 For such Members, subsidy programmes falling within the scope of Article 3 , and notified 
according to paragraph  3, shall be phased out or brought into conformity with Article  3 within a 
period of seven  years from the date of entry into force of the WTO Agreement. In such a case, 
Article  4 shall not apply. In addition during the same period:  
 G/SCM/W/546/Rev. 15 
 
- 11 - 
 
  (a) Subsidy programmes falling within the scope of paragraph  1(d) of Article  6 shall not 
be actionable under Article  7; 
 
(b) With respect to other actionable subsidies, the provisions of paragraph  9 of 
Article  27 shall apply.  
 
29.3 Subsidy pr ogrammes falling within the scope of Article  3 shall be notified to the Committee by 
the earliest practicable date after the date of entry into force of the WTO Agreement. Further 
notifications of such subsidies may be made up to two years after the date o f entry into force of the 
WTO Agreement.  
 
29.4 In exceptional circumstances Members referred to in paragraph  1 may be given departures 
from their notified programmes and measures and their time -frame by the Committee if such 
departures are deemed necessary  for the process of transformation.  
Article  32 
 
Other Final Provisions  
 
32.6 Each Member shall inform the Committee of any changes in its laws and regulations relevant 
to this Agreement and in the administration of such laws and regulations.
