Dear Ambassadors/Permanent Representatives,   I am forwarding to Members under cover of this letter the 13
th version of the Evolving 
Table on Cotton Development Assistance (WT/ CFMC/6/Rev.12) in advance of the next 
Round of the Director-General's Consultative Framework Mechanism on Cotton (DGCFMC).   
  The update reflected in this version of th e Evolving Table (ET) was made possible by 
contributions from Australia, Brazil, the EU (and several of its Member States), Japan and the 
US, and from several multilateral institutions, namely, the AfDB, CFC, FAO, ITC, IMF and the World Bank.  Of particular significance is  the support and contri butions from Brazil, 
China and India on the platform  of South-South Cooperation. 
  Participants in the DGCFMC have acknowledg ed that the modified structure of the 
ET, introduced in the previous ve rsion, gives enhanced visibility to this monitoring tool.  The 
attached Table reflects the steady progress regi stered with new projects added and several 
completed activities moved to the respective Anne xes.   To be noted, in particular, was the 
high increase in disbursed amounts reported in Part II - Active Activities, which almost 
doubled, from US$618 million in the previous version to US$1.1 billion in this updated 
version.     While recognising this positive development, there is still scope for improvement by reducing more substantially the gap between co mmitments and disbursements, which remains 
too high.  This becomes particularly visible in the description of Parts I and II of the Table 
that is included below.  In th is vein, participants should also strive to improve reporting, in 
particular with respect to some long-standing projects, so  that we can have a clearer picture of 
the situation of those projects in the field.    The updated commitments and disburseme nts of active operati onal activities are 
highlighted as follows:    
 In Part I, on Cotton Specific Development Assistance , the number of individual 
beneficiaries stands at 20.   The total number of commitments is 51, and the total 
value of these commitments approximates US$309 million.  Disbursement flows amount to US$92 million.

 In Part II, on Agriculture and Infrastructure-R elated Development Assistance , 
the number of individual beneficiaries is 29.  The total number of commitments is 
49, and the total value of these commit ments stands at US$4.72 billion.  The 
disbursement flows stan d at US$1.1 billion.   
  I am also pleased to attach the 5
th version of the Domestic  Cotton Sector Reform 
Table (WT/CFMC/21/Rev.4).  This update reflects  inputs received from Benin, Burkina Faso 
and Mali.     I have decided to convene the 17
th Round of the DGCFMC fo r 29 June 2012.  Deputy 
Director-General Harsha Var dhana Singh will chair the cons ultations on my behalf.  The 
updated 13th version of the Evolving Table will form the basis for this Round of 
consultations.

3. Trigger level: 
 (as calculated in Annex 1)   11.1 tonnes 
4. Volume of imports entering 
 territory in current period  16.3 tonnes 
5. Period of application:  from 24 February 2010 to 31 December 2010 
 
  
SPECIAL SAFEGUARD:  VOLUME-BASED:  Annex 1 to MA:3 
 
Information required for the calculation of the Trigger Level 
 
 
Imports in the 3 preceding years: 2006: 0.7 tonnes 
  2007: 23.8 tonnes   2008: 2.1 tonnes   Average: 8.9 tonnes 
 
And the import penetration is taken into account: 
 Consumption in the 3 preceding years: 2006:  4,593.7 tonnes   2007: 4,169.0 tonnes   2008:  4,195.5 tonnes   Average:  4,319.4 tonnes 
 
Calculation of trigger level (pursuant to Article 5 of the Agreement on Agriculture): 
 Import penetration = 8.9 / 4,319.4   = 0.21% (base trigger therefore equals 125%) 
 
Trigger level = (125% x 8.9 tonnes)   = 11.1 tonnes   Where the domestic consumption is not taken into account, the trigger level is 11.1 tonnes.

 Guía para la aplicación de la Ley de segurid ad de los productos de consumo del Canadá 
 
 Como complemento del último aviso relativo a la Ley de seguridad de los productos de 
consumo del Canadá (C CPSA), publicado el 5 de abril de 2011 (G/TBT/N/CAN/290/Add.2), el 
Canadá ha publicado un proyecto de informe sobr e evaluación de riesgos que propone limitar a 130 
partes por millón el contenido de cadmio en alha jas para niños.  Se considera que esta cantidad 
protege a los niños de corta edad de una intoxicación por cadmio en caso de ingestión accidental de estos productos o de que se los lleven a la boca repetidamente.  Los interlocutores comerciales 
afectados por esta directriz pueden presentar ob servaciones hasta el 10 de octubre de 2011. 
 
 El proyecto de informe de evaluación de riesgo está disponible en el sitio Web del Ministero de Salud del Canadá http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/  o en los enlaces que se indican más abajo.  Sírvanse
