Committee on Trade in Civil Aircraft
DRAFT REVISED PROTOCOL AND PRODUCT COVERAGE ANNEX
Note by the Secretariat
Revision
1. This current draft of the Protocol and product coverage annex ("PCA") revises the draft
contained in TCA/W/5 and Corr. 1.  It is based on the discussions in the meeting of the Committee of
14 June 2000 (TCA/M/10, paras. 15-45) as well as on comments submitted by Members since
June 2000.  A meeting of the Technical Sub-Committee of the Committee on Trade in Civil Aircraft
will take place on Tuesday 24 October 2000 in order to provide an opportunity for Signatories todiscuss this draft.  Signatories are reminded that a further meeting of the Technical Sub-Committee is
scheduled for Tuesday, 14 November 2000, one day prior to the 15 November 2000 meeting of the
Committee.
2. In the current draft, proposed insertions to the text of the Protocol (1986) and PCA already
indicated in TCA/W/5 remain in bold  font.  Additional proposed insertions (since TCA/W/5 and
Corr. 1) are indicated in bold and underlined  font.  Proposed deletions to the text of the Protocol
(1986) and PCA already indicated in TCA/W/5 remain in strikeout  font.  Additional proposed
deletions (since TCA/W/5 and Corr. 1) are indicated in double strikeout  font.  Explanatory footnotes
in square brackets have been inserted for the purposes of clarification in the drafting process, and are
not intended for inclusion in the final version of the Protocol and PCA.  Certain discrepancies
between the current text of the PCA and the text of the Harmonized System are also indicated.  In
addition, certain typographical and technical errors in TCA/W/5 have been corrected.
3. At the Committee meeting on 14 June 2000, one Signatory raised the issue of whether the
revised draft protocol and PCA should continue to refer to the Customs Cooperation Council
Nomenclature ("CCCN") (revised) in addition to the Harmonized System.1  While the Agreement on
Trade in Civil Aircraft does not impose an explicit legal obligation upon Signatories to use any
particular system for product classification, all Signatories to the Agreement currently apply theHarmonized System.
2  Therefore, while this current draft continues to refer to the CCCN (revised),
Signatories may wish to consider whether it is necessary to retain references to the CCCN (revised) in
the draft revised protocol.  If Signatories agree that such references are no longer necessary,
consequential changes would be necessary in the PCA (e.g., the heading of the first column currently
reads "CCCN (Revised) heading Ex"; it could be revised to read "HS heading Ex" and the codes inthat column could be transposed accordingly).
4. In addition, as products are technically classified in the Harmonized System under "headings"
and "subheadings" rather than under "codes", Signatories may wish to consider whether the draft
                                                     
1 See TCA/M/10, para. 24.  The Harmonized System (HS) nomenclature, which was developed in the
World Customs Organization (formerly the Customs Cooperation Council) entered into force on 1 January 1988through a Convention.  As of 25 February 2000, the HS Convention had 85 contracting parties (EC counted asone) and an additional 78 countries applying the HS without being contracting parties to the HS Convention.
2 That is, they are either a contracting party to th e Harmonized System Convention or, although not a
contracting party to the Convention, they apply the Harmonized System.TCA/W/5/Rev.1
Page 2
revised protocol should refer throughout to the more precise technical terms ("headings" and
"subheadings") rather than the more generic term ("codes") (e.g., the heading of the second column of
the draft PCA currently reads "HS Code Ex";  Signat ories may wish to consider whether this column
should read "HS subheading Ex").
5. Once Signatories have agreed upon the changes to be made to the protocol and the PCA, the
revised draft protocol and PCA would be presented to the Committee for adoption.  At the
24 October 2000 meeting of the Technical Sub-Committee, Signatories may therefore wish to discuss
specific modalities and timing for the adoption and entry into force of the Protocol.TCA/W/5/Rev.1
