STATE TRADING  
QUESTION FROM THE EUROPEAN UNION  
REGARDING NORWAY'S N EW AND FULL NOTIFICA TION1 
The following communication, dated 1 7 May 2018, is being circulated at the request of the 
Delegation of the European Union . 
 
_______________  
 
 
The EU is grateful to Norway for this notification and would like to ask Norway some clarifications. 
In particular:  
 
The EU understands that Vinmonopolet is a government -owned alcoholic beverage retailer in 
Norway which is the only company allowed to sell beverages containin g an alcohol content higher 
than 4.75% in Norway. Retail monopoly rights granted by the Norwegian authorities to 
Vinmonopolet imply that:  
 
a. exclusive or special rights or privileges, in the meaning of paragraph 1 of the 
Understanding on the Interpretation o f Article XVII of the General Agreement on Tariffs 
and Trade 1994, have been granted to Vinmonopolet; and  
b. in the exercise of these exclusive or special rights or privileges Vinmonopolet influences 
the level or direction of imports or exports of alcohol thr ough its purchases or sales.  
Question  
 
In the light of the above, could Norway explain why it has decided not to notify Vinmonopolet as 
an STE in their new and full notification to the Working Party on State Trading Enterprises?

  QUESTIONS POSÉES PAR L'UNION EUROPÉENNE À LA TURQUIE AU SUJET  
DE SA NOTIFICATION AU TITRE DE  L'ARTICLE 7:3 DE L'ACCORD  
SUR LES PROCÉDURES DE LICENCES D'IMPORTATION 
La communication ci-après, datée du 27 mars 2014, est distribuée à la demande de la délégation 
de l'Union européenne.  
_______________ 
  Il est fait référence ici à la notification relative aux licences d'importation de la Turquie 
(G/LIC/N/3/TUR/13 ) distribuée par l'OMC le 4 février 2014. 
A. S'agissant des renseignements contenus dans la notification, l'UE souhaite poser les 
questions suivantes: 
1. Mesure "2 COMMUNIQUÉ RELATIF AUX IMPORTATIONS: 13/4": L'UE estime que l'objet 
n'est pas indiqué explicitement. Les autorités turques pourraient-elles préciser un peu plus et clarifier l'objet de cette mesure? 
2. Les autorités turques pourraient-elles donner des explications supplémentaires afin de 
démontrer que l'approbation de l'Office du sucre turc ne vise pas à restreindre la quantité ni la valeur des importations de marchandises? 
3. Les autorités turques pourraient-elles préciser si l'expression anglaise "the customs 
entrance manifest" signifie plus exactement "customs declaration" (déclaration en 
douane)? 
B. Autres mesures en matière de licences d'importation 
Il apparaît que la Turquie impose aussi des prescriptions en matière de licences qui ne sont 
pas mentionnées dans cette notification. L'UE demande donc à la Turquie de communiquer des renseignements supplémentaires sur les mesures ci-après qu'elle applique: 
 régime de licences d'importation pour les biens anciens-d'occasion-remis en état; 
 régime de licences au titre de la surveillance visant les importations de certains 
produits (définis dans divers communiqués); 
 régime de certificats de conformité pour la  fourniture de produits tirés du pétrole 
autres que les combustibles, d'origines nationale et étrangère. 
S'agissant de ces mesures, l'UE souhaite poser les questions suivantes: 4. La Turquie pourrait-elle indiquer pourquoi ces mesures ne figurent pas dans la 
notification annuelle? 
5. La Turquie pourrait-elle, pour chaque me sure, préciser le fondement juridique et la 
source d'information dont les gouvernements et les négociants peuvent tirer tous les 
renseignements concernant l'application de ces mesures de licence: les procédures de 
présentation des demandes, l'admissibilité des requérants, l'organe administratif auquel il faut s'adresser, la base sur laquelle les licences sont accordées, le délai de traitement des demandes, etc.?

  COLOMBIA - MEASURES RELATING TO THE IMPORTATION

REQUEST BY PANAMA FOR ARBITRATION UNDER ARTICLE 21.3(C) OF THE DSU  
The following communication, dated 8 August  2016, from the delegation of Panama to 
the Chairperson of the Dispute Settlement Body, is circulated at the request of that delegation.  
_______________  
On 22 June 2016, the Dispute Settlement Body (DSB) adopted the rulings and recommendations 
of the Panel Report, as modified by the Appellate Body Report, in Colombia - Measures Relating to 
the Importation of Textiles, Apparel and Footwear  (DS461) . 
At the meeting of 2 1 June 2016, Colombia informed the DSB of its intention to implement the 
recommendations and rulings, and stated that it would need a reasonable period of time in which 
to do so . 
Given that  the 45 -day period provided fo r in Article  21.3(b) of the Dispute Settlement 
Understanding ( DSU) has expired  without the parties having been able to reach an agreement on 
the reasonable period of time for implementation, P anama requests that this reasonable period of 
time be determined through binding arbitration within 90  days after the adoption of the 
recommendations and rulings, pursuant to Article  21.3(c) of the DSU . 
Panama  hopes to enter into the consultations provided  for in footnote  12 of the DSU within 
ten days following  the receipt of this request, with a view t o the prompt appointment of 
the arbitrator .
