SUDÁFRICA - MEDIDAS ANTIDUMPING SOBRE EL 
PAPEL SIN MADERA, SIN RECUBRIR 
 
Comunicación presentada por Indonesia
 
  
La siguiente comunicación, de fecha 20 de novi embre de 2008, dirigida por la delegación de 
Indonesia al Presidente del Órgano de Solución de Diferencias, se distribuye a petición de Indonesia.  
_______________ 
 
 
 La República de Indonesia desea informar al Ór gano de Solución de Dife rencias de que retira 
su solicitud de celebración de consultas di stribuida con la signatura WT/DS374/1. 
  En su solicitud de celebración de consultas de fecha 9 de mayo de 2008, Indonesia planteó preocupaciones con respecto a la continuación de la imposición por la República de Sudáfrica de 
medidas antidumping sobre las importaciones de papel blanco sin madera, sin recubrir, de tamaño A4, 
procedentes de Indonesia y la realización de un pr ocedimiento de examen por extinción con respecto a 
estas medidas antidumping.   El 10 de junio de 2008, la Misión Permanen te de la República de Sudáfrica ante la OMC 
informó a Indonesia de que, en respuesta a las pr eocupaciones que este país había planteado, el 
Ministro de Comercio e Industria de Sudáfrica pr omulgó una modificación de la Lista de la Ley de 
Aduanas e Impuestos Indirectos por la que se  retiran las medidas antidumping impuestas a las 
importaciones de papel blanco sin madera, sin rec ubrir, de tamaño A4, procedentes de Indonesia, con 
efecto retroactivo a partir del 27 de noviembre de 2003.  La modificación fue notificada en los Avisos 
Nº R.630 y R.631 publicados en el Nº 31123 del Diario  Oficial del Gobierno, de  4 de junio de 2008.  
Además, la Comisión de la Administración del Co mercio Internacional de Sudáfrica rescindió el 
procedimiento de examen por extinción relativo a estas medidas antidumping en una reunión que celebró el 10 de junio de 2008.  En consecuencia,  se ha puesto fin a las medidas antidumping y los 
importadores pueden obtener el reembolso de los derechos antidumping pagados después del 27 de 
noviembre de 2003. 
 
 Como las medidas adoptadas por la República de  Sudáfrica son suficientes para resolver las 
preocupaciones planteadas en la solicitud de celeb ración de consultas presentada por Indonesia, este 
país retira por la presente la solicitud de celebra ción de consultas distribuida con la signatura 
WT/DS374/1 de todo ulterior estudio con arregl o a las disposiciones del Entendimiento sobre 
Solución de Diferencias. 
  El retiro de dicha solicitud se entiende sin pe rjuicio de los derechos que le corresponden a 
Indonesia en virtud del Acuerdo por el que se est ablece la Organización Mundial del Comercio. 
  Se ruega tengan a bien distribuir la presen te comunicación a los Miembros del Órgano de 
Solución de Diferencias.

 La siguiente comunicación, de fecha 28 de ab ril de 2005, se distribuye a petición de la 
delegación de la República Popular China.   
 
Respuesta a la pregunta 2 d), que había quedado sin contestar 
 Pregunta 2 d)
 
  Como ya han tenido ocasión de señalar la s CE y otros Miembros de la OMC, el 
artículo 56 del Reglamento (y las disposicion es correspondientes del artículo 7 de la Ley de 
Comercio Exterior) en su actual redacción no parece  ser compatible con las normas de la OMC.  
¿Podría explicar China por qué ha considerado ne cesario el mantenimiento de esa cláusula en el 
reglamento modificado?  ¿Se ha aplicado la cláusula en algún caso concreto y en qué 
circunstancias prevé China que sería de aplicación? 
 Respuesta
 
  El término país (región) empl eado en el artículo 56 del Reglamento Antidumping abarca tanto 
a Miembros como a no miembros de la OMC.  Cuando China adopte las medidas correspondientes contra un Miembro de la OMC, lo hará en cumpli miento de las obligaciones dimanantes de la OMC.  
Hasta ahora, el artículo 56 no ha sido aplicado.

VENEZUELA'S NON-AUTOMATIC IMPORT LICENSING PROCEDURES 
 
Replies by the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela to the Questions from Mexico

 The following communication, dated 22 April 2010,  is being circulated at the request of the 
delegation of Venezuela.  
_______________ 
  
 In response to the questions raised by the delegation of Mexico in document G/LIC/Q/VEN/5 
of 27 April 2009, we note that certificates of no national production or insufficient national production are not a requirement for importation into the territory of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela.  Rather, they are required for the Commission for the Administration of Currencies 
(CADIVI) to be able to grant foreign exchange authorization under Presidential Decree No. 2320 of 
27 February 2003, as part of the exchange pol icy introduced under the Foreign Exchange 
Administration Regime set up by Exchange Agreemen t No. 1 between the former Ministry of Finance 
and the Central Bank of Venezuela published in the Gaceta official  (Official Journal) of the 
Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela No. 37625 of 5 Fe bruary 2003 and reprinted owing to clerical 
errors in Official Journals Nos. 37641 of 27 Febr uary 2003, 37649 of 13 March 2003, and 37653 of 
19 March 2003. 
  As the certificates of no national production and insufficient national production are clearly 
not import licences, they do not fall within the scope of Article 1 of the Agreement on Import Licensing Procedures.

DISSEMINATION OF THE INTEGRATED DATA BASE (IDB) AND  
THE CONSOLIDATED TARIFF SC HEDULES (CTS) DATABASE 
 
Communication from the International Co ffee Organization (ICO) on Dissemination 
 
of the Integrated Database (IDB) and the Consolidated Tariff Schedules (CTS) Database  
 
 
 The following communication, dated 3 May 2007, is being circulated at the request of the 
International Coffee Organization (ICO).  
_______________ 
 
 
 I refer to paragraph 5 of document G/MA/ 115, containing the dissemination policy for the 
WTO Integrated Database (IDB) and the Consolid ated Tariff Schedules (CTS) database, and would 
like to request access for the Intern ational Coffee Organization (ICO) to both.  The ICO undertakes to 
use the information contained there in accordance w ith the terms and conditions set out in document 
G/MA/115.   The ICO is the main intergovernmental orga nization for coffee, bringing together producing 
and consuming countries to tackle the challenges f acing the world coffee sector through international 
cooperation.  Its 77 Members include 45 coffee expor ting and 32 importing countries, all of whom are 
also either Members of or are negotiating thei r accession to the WTO.  Relevant background 
information about the ICO follows by post.  Please  note that the ICO is invited as an observer to 
meetings of the Committee on Trade and Deve lopment dealing with commodities issues. 
  In accordance with Section D, paragraph 9 of  document G/MA/115, the ICO would designate 
Mr. Denis Seudieu, Chief Economist, as the focal point for the distribution of the IDB and CTS 
user-identification code and passwords.   The ICO is aware of the comprehensive information contained in the databases and is convinced that access will strengthen its capacity  to adequately respond to requests of Member 
countries and to better contribute to their effective participation in the ongoing WTO negotiations.  I 
would therefore be grateful if you could place th is request before the Committee on Market Access 
for consideration and approval.

TITLE:  Energy Conservation Program: Compliance Date Regarding the Test Procedures for Walk-In 
Coolers and Freezers and the Certification for Metal Halide Lamp Ballasts and Fixtures  AGENCY:  Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (OEERE), Department of Energy (DOE) 
 
ACTION:  Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NOPR)  SUMMARY:  This document clarifies the compliance date by which manufacturers must begin to use 
portions of a recently promulgated test procedure (i.e., the 15 April 2011 final rule) when certifying 
walk-in coolers and walk-in freezers. This document also proposes regulatory text changes to reflect 
U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) intent that only manufacturers of components of walk-in coolers 
and walk-in freezers are required to submit certif ication reports.  Additionally, the NOPR proposes 
clarifications as to the types of test data needed  to support the certification of compliance per DOE's 
existing test procedures for walk-in coolers and wa lk-in freezers and the recently promulgated test 
procedure for this equipment. Finally, this doc ument proposes to extend the compliance date for 
certification of metal halide lamp ballasts and fixtures. 
 DATES:  DOE will accept comments, data, and in formation regarding the notice of proposed 
rulemaking (NOPR) postmarked no later than 30 Augus t 2011. See section III, "Public Participation", 
for details.
