AGREEMENT ONTEXTILES AND CLOTHING
Purpose ofNotifications intheAgreement onTextiles andClothing (ATC)
1. Akeyobjective oftheATC istobring about theintegration ofthetextiles andclothing
sector intoGATT rules andtothereby progressively diminish thescope ofthisAgreement until
itexpires attheendof2004.Thisprocess isbeing carried outoverthe10-year transition period
bytheprogressive integration oftheproducts covered bytheATC -16percentofthevolume ofthe
Member 's1990 imports aschosen bythatMember wasintegrated atthebeginning ofstage 1
(1January 1995), afurther 17percentwillbeintegrated atthebeginning ofstage 2(1January 1998)
and18percentatthebeginning ofstage 3(1January 2002). Thefinal49percentoftheproducts
coveredbythisAgreementwillbeautomaticallyintegratedwhentheATCexpireson31December2004.
Asproducts areintegrated, theyareremoved from thescope oftheATC andanyquotas onthose
products willbeeliminated. Bythismeans, thecurrent extensive system ofbilateral quota measures
willbeeliminated.
2. TheATC requires thenotifications ofeachofthesteps andactions which must betaken in
thisprocess, todocument thembothforreview purposes bytheTextiles Monitoring Body (TMB) and
toinformallWTOMembers,forinformationandtransparency.Anumberofnotificationswererequired
in1995 tosetthestarting points forthetransition, thatis,listings ofquotas already inplace on
1January 1995 andproducts tobeintegrated atthebeginning ofthefirstphase .Further
notifications willberequired in1996andinthefollowing years torecord theintegration programmes
forthesecond andthird phases, andtoinform Members ofanyactions taken inrelation tothis
requirement. These provisions areallcontained inArticle 2.
3. Asecond important goaloftheATC istheelimination ofallQRsontextiles andclothing
outside theMFA which arenotconsistent withGATT rules.Thisrequired notification in1995
oftheinitial situation ineachMember, thatis,thelisting ofallQRsmaintained byWTO Members,
whether GATT consistent ornot,followed bynotification ofprogrammes created todealwithany
ofthese QRswhich were GATT-inconsistent. Again, thepurposes ofnotification were thesame -
torecord thestarting point, thatis,allQRsineffect attheoutset, toinform theTMB ofthesituation
andactions tobetaken, foritsreview purposes, andfortheinformation ofallWTO Members for
transparency. These provisions areinArticle 3.
4. Thethird main areaisthespecial safeguard mechanism inArticle 6which hasnolessthan
eight notification requirements, ifrecourse ishadtothisArticle. Iwillcome tothose indetail later.
Suffice ittosaythatthenotification requirements ofthevarious stepsinthesafeguard process ensure
thatthecarefully negotiated criteria fortaking suchaction willbemetandfulltransparency provided.
TheTMB is,ofcourse, called upon toreview every aspect ofsafeguard actions.
5. Other Articles alsorequire notification ofvirtually every action taken andinmany cases
provide forrecourse totheTMB byaffected Members iftheyfeeltheirrights arebeing infringed by
theactions ofothers.
Notification Requirements intheATC
6. Intotal, theAgreement onTextiles andClothing contains 37references tonotifications by
WTO Members, mostofwhich aretotheTextiles Monitoring Body (inonecasetotheTMB Chairman).
Some ofthese notifications require information fromallWTO Members atspecific times, suchasthe
listsofproducts forintegration intoGATT, while others areadhoc,toadvise ofspecific actions taken
byindividual Members under theAgreement suchasasafeguard action.TEX-I -Page3
7. Tosimplify thisprocess, Iwilldivide thenotification requirements intofoursections:
(a) abrief review ofthenotifications which have already been received bytheTMB
in1995;
(b) those withfixed time-frames which arerequired in1996;
(c) those withfixed time-frames which arerequired inlateryears; and
(d) adhocnotifications which arerequired when certain actions aretaken.
Notifications in1995
8. TheTMB circulated atotalof131notifications in1995, including:
(a) thelistsofallMFA quotas inplace on31December 1994, submitted bythefour
Members maintaining suchquotas: Canada, theEU,Norway andtheUS-thesequotas
were carried overintotheATC asitsstarting point (Article 2.1);
(b) notifications made byMembers oftheirdecision whether ornottheywished toretain
therighttousethesafeguard mechanism intheATC (Article 6.1);
(c) those Members retaining therighttousethesafeguard werethenrequired tosupply
theirlistsoftextile andclothing products tobeintegrated intoGATT forthefirststage
(Articles 2.6and2.7(b));
and
(d) inaddition, notifications ofquantitative restrictions outside theMFA weremade by
anumber ofMembers (Article 3).
9. Anumber ofother notifications havealsobeenmade totheTMB relating primarily tothe
application ofthespecial safeguard mechanism (Article 6),andthese arebeing circulated following
theirexamination bytheTMB.
Future Notifications withFixed Time-Frames
10. Turning fromtheevents of1995andlooking atthecurrent year, thereisonlyonenotification
obligation intheATC for1996 withafixed time-frame. AllMembers which retained therightto
usethespecial safeguard mechanisms (Article 6.1), andprovided theirintegration listsin1995 for
thefirststage (Articles 2.6and2.7(b)), arerequired bytheendof1996, toprovide theirintegration
listsforthesecond stage(Article 2.8(a)). Specifically, Article 2.11states: "Therespective programmes
ofintegration inpursuance ofparagraph 8...shallbenotified indetail totheTMB atleast12months
before theircoming intoeffect." Asstage 2willbegin on1January 1998, thenotifications willhave
tobemade before 1January 1997. Ineffect, bytheendof1996.
11. Thethirdstageoftheintegrationprocessbeingson1January2002and,therefore,thenotification
ofthose integration listswillnotberequired untiltheendoftheyear2000.
Notifications Required When Certain Actions areTaken
12. Putsimply, virtually every action taken byaMember under theTextiles Agreement andin
some cases notifications made toother WTO bodies must benotified totheTMB.
13. Taking theArticles inorder:TEX-I -Page4
14. InArticle 2,Ihavealready explained thefixed-time requirements tonotify thelistofproducts
tobeintegrated inthesecond stagebytheendof1996. Astoother specific actions which areprovided
forinthisArticle, notification isrequired ifaproduct isintegrated intoGATT earlier thanwould
otherwise berequired bytheMember 'sintegration programme (2.10). Notification isalsorequired
ifaquota istobeeliminated outside normal circumstances (2.15). Anyadministrative arrangements
concluded inrelation totheimplementation ofthisArticle, mustalsobenotified (2.17) asmustany
improvements inaccess provided tosmall suppliers under paragraph 18ofthisArticle (2.18).
15. InArticle 3,itisrequired thatMembers provide totheTMB notifications submitted toany
other WTO body withrespect toanynewrestrictions orchanges inexisting restrictions ontextile
andclothing products, made under anyWTO provision. Members havetheright tomake cross-
notifications inthisregard.
16. Article 4concerns changes inrules andpractices andArticle 5concerns actions incases
ofcircumvention intheprovisions oftheAgreement .Intheformer, ifmutual agreement onchanges
inrulesandpractices isnotreached, thematter canbereferred totheTMB forrecommendations (4.4).
Inrespect ofcircumvention, anyagreement reached bilaterally toresolved circumvention problems
must benotified totheTMB (5.4) and,intheabsence ofagreement, thematter canbereferred for
review andrecommendations (5.4-5.6).
17. Thisbrings ustoArticle 6,thespecial safeguard mechanism .ThisArticle haseightspecific
references tonotifications totheTMB. Toputitbriefly, notification isrequired when arequest for
consultations onapossible safeguard action ismade1(6.7); when anagreement isreached through
these consultations (6.9); ifanagreement isnotreached (6.10) andifaction istaken provisionally
in"critical" circumstances (6.11). Article 6hastimerequirements forthese notifications andforthe
TMB todoitswork.
18. Article 7isaverybroad provision relating toallobligation undertaken byMembers inthe
WTO Agreements touching upon textiles andclothing .Again toputitbriefly, Members mustnotify
totheTMB allactions taken anywhere intheWTO which "have abearing ontheimplementation
ofthisAgreement". Iftheaction taken isnotified toanother WTO body, thenanotification inthe
formofasummarywouldbesufficientfortheTMB.Membershavetherighttomakecross-notifications
inthisregard.
19. Article 8setsoutthebasic rules fortheTMB andprovides thatanyMember cannotify any
particular matter totheTMB forreview andrecommendation iftheMember considers thatanaction
taken isdetrimental toitsinterests (8.6), following consultations withtheother Member concerned.

Article 5
1. Members agree thatcircumvention bytransshipment, re-routing, falsedeclaration concerning
country orplace oforigin, andfalsification ofofficial documents, frustrates theimplementation of
thisAgreement tointegrate thetextiles andclothing sector intoGATT 1994. Accordingly, Members
should establish thenecessary legalprovisions and/or administrative procedures toaddress andtake
action against suchcircumvention. Members further agree that,consistent withtheirdomestic laws
andprocedures, theywillcooperate fullytoaddress problems arising from circumvention.
2. Should anyMember believe thatthisAgreement isbeing circumvented bytransshipment, re-
routing, falsedeclaration concerning country orplace oforigin, orfalsification ofofficial documents,
andthatno,orinadequate, measures arebeing applied toaddress and/or totakeaction against such
circumvention, thatMember should consult withtheMember orMembers concerned withaviewto

Member involved totheTMB forrecommendations.
3. Members agree totakenecessary action, consistent withtheirdomestic lawsandprocedures,
toprevent, toinvestigate and,where appropriate, totakelegal and/or administrative action against
circumvention practices within theirterritory. Members agree tocooperate fully, consistent withtheir

toestablish therelevant factsintheplaces ofimport, export and,where applicable, transshipment.
Itisagreed thatsuch cooperation, consistent withdomestic laws andprocedures, willinclude:
investigation ofcircumvention practices which increase restrained exports totheMember maintaining
suchrestraints; exchange ofdocuments, correspondence, reports andother relevant information toTEX-V -Page8
theextent available; andfacilitation ofplant visits andcontacts, upon request andonacase-by-case
basis. Members should endeavour toclarify thecircumstances ofanysuchinstances ofcircumvention
oralleged circumvention, including therespective roles oftheexporters orimporters involved.
4. Where, asaresult ofinvestigation, thereissufficient evidence thatcircumvention hasoccurred
(e.g.where evidence isavailable concerning thecountry orplace oftrueorigin, andthecircumstances
ofsuchcircumvention), Members agree thatappropriate action, totheextent necessary toaddress the
problem, should betaken. Suchaction mayinclude thedenial ofentry ofgoods or,where goods have
entered, having dueregard totheactual circumstances andtheinvolvement ofthecountry orplace
oftrueorigin, theadjustment ofcharges torestraint levels toreflect thetruecountry orplace oforigin.
Also, where there isevidence oftheinvolvement oftheterritories oftheMembers through which the
goods havebeentransshipped, suchaction mayinclude theintroduction ofrestraints withrespect to
suchMembers. Anysuchactions, together withtheirtiming andscope, maybetaken afterconsultations

theplaces oftransit. They notethatitmaynotbegenerally practicable forsuchplaces oftransit to
exercise control oversuchshipments.
6. Members agree thatfalse declaration concerning fibre content, quantities, description or
classification ofmerchandise alsofrustrates theobjective ofthisAgreement. Where there isevidence
thatanysuchfalsedeclaration hasbeenmade forpurposes ofcircumvention, Members agree that
appropriatemeasures,consistentwithdomesticlawsandprocedures,shouldbetakenagainsttheexporters
orimporters involved. Should anyMember believe thatthisAgreement isbeing circumvented bysuch
falsedeclaration andthatno,orinadequate, administrative measures arebeing applied toaddress and/or
totakeaction against suchcircumvention, thatMember should consult promptly withtheMember
involved withaviewtoseeking amutually satisfactory solution. Ifsuchasolution isnotreached,
