délégation de Sri Lanka.  
_______________ 
 
 
 Comme vous vous en souviendrez, Sri Lanka  a engagé des négociations au titre de 
l'article XXVIII du GATT dans le document SECR ET/HS/26 dans le but de transposer ses 
concessions dans la nomenclature du  Système harmonisé.  La Section I-A de la Partie I de la Liste VI 
- Sri Lanka énumérait les lignes tarifaires pour les quelles les négociations n'avaient pas encore abouti 
au moment où elle a été annexée au Protocole de  Marrakech annexé au GATT de 1994.  Les résultats 
finals de ces négociations ont été communiqués aux Membres dans le document G/SECRET/HS/11 
du 23 novembre 2005.   Conformément aux procédures de modification et de rectification des listes de concessions tarifaires
1, Sri Lanka présente pour distribution une annexe2 avec un projet de texte regroupant les 
amendements qui seront apportés à la Liste VI. 
 
_______________ 
  
 Si aucune objection n'est notifiée au Secrétaria t dans un délai de trois mois à compter de la 
date du présent document, les rectifications et modi fications apportées à la Liste VI – Sri Lanka seront 
considérées comme approuvées et seront officiellement certifiées.
