its antidumping proceedings which Japan has challenged in the dispute " United States - Measures

ENTRY INTO FORCE OF CANADA'S AQUATIC ANIMAL HEALTH REGULATIONS 
 
Communication from Canada 
  
 The following communication, received on 12 Octo ber 2011, is being circulated at the request 
of the Delegation of Canada. 
 
_______________ 
  
1. The Government of Canada would like to info rm Members of the upcoming entry into force 
of its regulatory amendments regarding aquatic animal health, which could impact imports from 
Canada's trading partners. 
2. Canada notified the development,  adoption and entry into force of these new requirements to 
the WTO on 6 January 2010 (G/SPS/N/CAN/415) and 18 January 2011 (G/SPS/N/CAN/415/Add.1). 
3. On 22 December 2010, Canada's Health of Anim als Regulations were amended to include 
aquatic animals.  On 5 January 2011, aquatic an imal diseases were added to Canada's Reportable 
Diseases Regulations.  The purpose of these regulatory changes is to prevent the introduction into and 
spread within Canada of aquatic animal diseases. 
4. These regulatory changes will affect the import of finfish, molluscs and crustaceans.  
Specifically, the regulations will control the import of species of aquatic animals that are susceptible 
to diseases regulated by Canada, including those liste d by the OIE.  Schedule III1 of the Health of 
Animals Regulations provides lists of aquatic animals that will be subject to import controls.  Canada 
formulated these lists in accordan ce with the standards of the World Organisation for Animal Health 
(OIE) outlined in the Aquatic Animal Health Code. 
5. Effective 10 December 2011, importers of any of the aquatic animals (live or dead and 
including germplasm, carcases and offal of those animal s) listed in Schedule III of Canada's Health of 
Animals Regulations will require: 
1) an import permit issued by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency;  and  
2) a zoosanitary certificate signed by the Competent Authority of the exporting country 
of origin of the animals. 
6. Aquatic animals that are eviscerated or packag ed, processed or ready-to-eat products will not 
require an import permit or a zoosanitary certificate.   
                                                      
1 Schedule III of the Health of Animals Regulations  can be found at " http://laws-
lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/regulations/C.R.C.%2C_c._296/page-57.html#h-128 ". G/SPS/GEN/1122 
Page 2  
 
  7. Trading partners exporting regul ated aquatic animals to Canada will need to negotiate 
zoosanitary certificates with Canada by 10 December 2011.  As the date of entry into force of the new 
requirements is fast approaching, Canada encourag es implicated Members to contact the Canadian 
Food Inspection Agency in advance to minimize impact  on trade flows.  For more information, please 
contact the Canadian Mission in your territory or  Dr. Joanne Constantine of the Canadian Food 
Inspection Agency at +1 (613) 773 7426 or joanne.constantine@inspection.gc.ca.

ASSISTANCE TECHNIQUE 
L'Autriche fait un don de 200 000  euros en faveur du programme 
de formation de l'OMC à l'intent ion des pays en développement 
L'Autriche a fait un don de 200 000 euros (environ 240 000 CHF) en faveur du Fonds global 
d'affectation spéciale (FGASPDD) pour 2012.  Ce don porte la contribution totale de l'Autriche au 
FGASPDD à 2,66 millions d'euros (3,2 millions de CHF). 
 Ce don servira à financer des programmes d'assistance technique et des activités de formation à 
l'intention des pays en développement et des pays les moins avancés ainsi que des économies en 
transition.  L'objectif est d'améliorer leur capacité de participer de façon effective aux négociations dans le cadre de l'OMC et de faire en sorte qu'ils tirent pleinement profit des résultats obtenus 
pendant ces négociations. 
 "Je salue la contribution de l'Autriche, qui perme ttra aux pays en développement de renforcer leur 
participation au système commercial multilatéral", a déclaré le Directeur général de l'OMC, 
M. Pascal Lamy.  
Le Ministre fédéral de l'économie, de la famille et de la jeunesse de l'Autriche, 
M. Reinhold Mitterlehner, a dit:  "Cette contribu tion est une preuve concrète de la détermination 
de l'Autriche à aider les pays en développement et en particulier les pays les moins avancés à 
accroître leurs capacités commerciales, à trouver de nouveaux marchés et à faciliter leur 
intégration dans l'économie mondiale.  Il est essentiel que les pays en développement comprennent comment le système commercial multilatéral fonctionne, car le commerce peut jouer 
un rôle moteur en matière de croissance et de lutte contre la pauvreté."

Council for Trade in Goods of developments during the period covered by such reviews." 
 2. The Committee on Rules of Origin (CRO) held two meetings on 11 June and 
15 October 2009.  The CRO re-elected Ms. Vera T horstensen (Brazil) as Chairperson and [...] for 
2009.  Observer governments in the General Council of the WTO have observer status in the CRO.  In 
addition, representatives of the ACP, EFTA, I ADB, IMF, ITCB, OECD, UNCTAD, WCO and the 
World Bank attend meetings of the CRO in the  capacity of observers. 
 3. With regard to the work under Part II of  the Agreement, the CRO discussed [the issue 
"transitional review under paragraph 18 of the Protocol of Accession of the People's Republic of 
China"]. 
 
4. With regard to the work under Part III of the Agreement, the CRO, [took note of the 
notifications under Article 5 and pa ragraph 4 of Annex II of the Agre ement.  To date [80] Members 
have made notifications of non-preferential ru les of origin and [114] Members have made 
notifications of preferential rules of origin.  The Chairman expressed concern that a number of 
Members had not yet complied with the notificati on requirements.  He urged Members who had not 
yet notified to do so as early as possible]. 
 5. With regard to the Harmonization Work Pr ogramme under Part IV of the Agreement, the 
General Council, at its meeting on 27 July 2007, re cognized that delegations in the CRO felt that the 
difficulties they had encountered on the "implications " issue and in the sector of machinery was such

recommendation of delegations in the CRO was that  work on these issues be suspended until such 
guidance from the General Council would be fort hcoming.  The General Council then agreed
 that "in 
the meantime the CRO continue its work with a vi ew to resolving all technical issues including the 
technical aspects of the overall architecture, as soon as possible".  The General Council also took note  
of the statement that the General Council Chairman noted in this connection that "in terms of next 
steps, delegations had requested the CRO Chair to continue the technical and architecture discussions 
in the regular business of the CRO".    The CRO, at its meetings on 11 June a nd 15 October 2009 [...].

Communication from Chad
 
 
Corrigendum  
   Pursuant to a request by the Permanen t Mission of the Republic of Chad dated 
11 September 2009, the following corrections should be made to the document WT/CFMC/22. 
 
_______________ 
 
 1. On page 1, delete the word "brief" from the introductory title. 
2. On page 1, the first and second pa ragraphs should read as follows: 
"1. Cotton is of major economic and social importa nce to Chad as it has a direct impact on the 
majority of the population in terms of income and services.  More than 3 million Chadians derive the 
bulk of their income directly or indirectly from cott on growing.  In addition to the direct income that 
cotton injects into the rural world, it contributes to the construction of the social infrastructure 
(schools, medical clinics, wells, dirt roads for cott on, etc.) that is necessary for rural development." 
 "2. Cotton has been the driving force behind Chad 's socio-economic development for decades.  It 
is the country's main export, accounting for up to 40  per cent of export revenue and therefore playing 
a key role in Chad's economy after oil, which has only been exported since 2003.  The cotton sector is 
the leading borrower from the banking and financial system and the main source of subcontracts and 
supply contracts." 
 3. On page 3, delete point (i) and paragraph 10.
