Request to Join Further Consultations 
 
 
Communication from Australia 
 
 
 The following communication, dated 11 May 2 007, from the delegation of Australia to the 
delegation of China, the delegation of Mexico and to the Chairman of the Dispute Settlement Body, is 
circulated in accordance with Article 4.11 of the DSU. 
 
_______________ 
 
  Pursuant to paragraph 11 of Article 4 of the Understanding on Rules and Procedures 
Governing the Settlement of Disputes  (DSU), Australia notifies the Government of the People's 
Republic of China that, in light of the substantial trad e interest of Australia, it desires to be joined in 
the supplemental consultations requested by Mexico in the communication entitled China – Certain 
Measures Granting Refunds, Reductions or Exemptions from Taxes and Other Payments  
(WT/DS359/1/Add.1).    
 China's acceptance of Australia's earlier request to be joined in the consultations requested by 
Mexico in this dispute is appreciated by Austra lia, and we look forward to participating in the 
supplemental consultations.     As noted in our earlier request, Australia's trad e interests in this matter are substantial.  
Australia's trading relationship with China contin ues to grow.  In 2006, two-way merchandise trade 
was valued in excess of A$ 46 billion.  In that year, China became Australia's second largest trading 
partner for the first time.  Measures adopted by Ch ina can significantly affect trade between our two 
countries, as well as trade with third country market s.  Australian producers compete with Chinese 
producers within China and Australia, as well as in th ird country markets.  Australia therefore has a 
clear interest in the trading environment within which that competition takes place being consistent 
with China's WTO obligations.      Australia looks forward to receiving your reply.
