ANNEX VII(b) OF THE AGREEMENT ON SUBSIDIES AND COUNTERVAILING MEASURES 
UPDATING GNP PER CAPITA FOR MEMBERS LIST ED IN ANNEX VII(b) AS FORESEEN IN  
PARAGRAPH 10.1 OF THE DOHA MINISTER IAL DECISION AND IN ACCORDANCE  
WITH THE METHODOLOGY IN G/SCM/38 
Note by the Secretariat 
Addendum 
In paragraph 10.1 of the Doha Ministerial Deci sion on Implementation-Related Issues and 
Concerns (document WT/MIN(01)/17, para. 10.1) Ministers:  
"Agree[d] that Annex VII(b) to the Agreement on Subsidies and Countervailing 
Measures includes the Members that are listed therein until their GNP per capita reaches US$1,000 in constant 1990 dollars for three consecutive years. This decision 
will enter into effect upon the adoption by the Committee on Subsidies and 
Countervailing Measures of an appropriate methodology for calculating constant 1990 dollars. If, however, the Committee on Subsidies and Countervailing Measures does 
not reach a consensus agreement on an appropriate methodology by 1 January 2003, 
the methodology proposed by the Chairman of the Committee set forth in G/SCM/38, Appendix 2 shall be applied. A Member shall not leave Annex VII(b) so long as its GNP per capita in current dollars has not reached US$1,000 based upon the most recent 
data from the World Bank." 
Pursuant to this paragraph, as of 1 January 2003, the methodology set forth in document 
G/SCM/38, Appendix 2 applies. 
 
As foreseen in paragraph 10.1 of the Doha Minist erial Decision on Implementation-Related Issues 
and Concerns and in application of the methodology in G/SCM/38, the Secretariat informs the 
Committee of updated calculations reflecting: (i) GNI
1 per capita in constant 1990 dollars covering 
the three most recent years for which data are available (2011-2013)2; and (ii) GNI per capita in 
current dollars for the year 2013.  
                                               
1 The World Bank data series formerly identified as  Gross National Product (" GNP") is now published as 
Gross National Income ("GNI"). This change reflec ts the implementation of the System of National 
Accounts 1993 ("SNA 93"). Although the underlying concepts are different (GNP being a measure of product, and GNI being a measure of income), the values calculated are the same. 
2 Figures for 1990-1999 are as already contained in G/SCM/38. As agreed in G/SCM/38, step 3, values 
of GNI per capita at constant 1990 dollars for the period 1990 - 1999 are not modified with subsequent revisions of the series. To derive GNI per capita at constant 1990 dollars for 2000, the growth rates for 2000 over 1999 at constant 1995 dollars, derived as foreseen in G/SCM/38 table B, have been applied to the 1999 GNI per capita values in constant 1990 dollars, as set forth in G/SCM/38, table C. Similarly, the growth rates of 2001 over 2000, 2002 over 2001, 2003 over 2002, 2004 over 2003, 2005 over 2004, 2006 over 2005, 2007 
over 2006, 2008 over 2007, 2009 over 2008, 2010 over 2009, 2011 over 2010, 2012 over 2011, and 2013 
over 2012 have been applied to data for 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, and 2012, respectively. G/SCM/110/Add.12
