21 February 1996.  On 22 April 1996,the APB issued its report, modifying
the Panel Report on the interpretation
of GATT Article XX(g), butconcluding that Article XX(g) was not
applicable in this case. The APB report
and the Panel Report as modified bythe APB report, were adopted by the

law and legal interpretations developed
by the Panel.  The report of the APBwas circulated on 13 July 1998. The

the Canadian regional aircraft
industry constitutes export subsidies.
