Importation of Fruits and Vegetables: Final Rule  (Importation de fruits et légumes.  Règle finale)
 
  Le Service d'inspection zoosanitaire et phyt osanitaire (APHIS) modifie la réglementation 
concernant les fruits et légumes à l'effet de citer un certain nombre de fruits  et légumes en provenance 
de parties du monde déterminées comme pouvant êt re importés aux États-Unis sous certaines 
conditions spécifiées.  Beaucoup de ces fruits et légumes peuvent être importés avec un permis, mais 
n'étaient pas explicitement cités da ns la réglementation.  Pour pouvoi r entrer dans le pays, tous ces 
fruits et légumes seront inspectés et éventuellement tr aités à leur point de première arrivée suivant les 
prescriptions d'un inspecteur.  En outre, certain s de ces fruits et légumes seront soumis à une 
obligation de traitement ou devront respecter d'au tres conditions particuliè res.  L'APHIS reconnaît 
aussi des régions de plusieurs pays comme indemn es de certaines mouches des fruits, ajoute, modifie 
ou supprime certaines définitions, modifie des exig ences en matière de traitement pour des produits 
spécifiés et apporte diverses autres modificati ons.  Ces mesures permettront d'améliorer la 
transparence de la réglementation tout en con tinuant à protéger le pays contre l'introduction 
d'organismes de  quarantaine via des fruits et légumes importés.
 
 
 Entrée en vigueur de la règle le 8 décembre 2005.

JAMAICA 
 El Canadá hace referencia al documento G/ SCM/W/535, de fecha 12 de abril de 2006, que 
fue patrocinado por 14 Miembros y copatrocinado por Guatemala en el documento G/SCM/W/535/Add.1, y al documento G/SCM/W/537,  una comunicación de Panamá, de fecha 23 de 
junio de 2006, que fue copatrocinada por Costa Rica y Jordania en los documentos G/SCM/W/537/Add.1 y Add.2, respectivamente.  El Ca nadá desearía plantear las siguientes preguntas 
a todos los proponentes de los documen tos mencionados anteriormente. 
Pregunta 1
 
 Recordando que el documento G/SCM/39 tenía como objetivo conceder una prórroga del 
período de transición para la el iminación progresiva de los pr ogramas de subvenciones a la 
exportación de varios Miembros, conforme a lo dispuesto en el párrafo 4 del artículo 27 del 
Acuerdo SMC, rogamos a los proponentes de lo s documentos G/SCM/W/535 y G/SCM/W/537 que 
informen al Comité de Subvenciones y Medid as Compensatorias sobre los esfuerzos que ha 
desplegado cada uno, en su caso, para poner gra dualmente esos programas de subvenciones a la 
exportación en conformidad con las obligaciones que  le corresponden en el marco de la OMC. 
Pregunta 2  
 ¿Podrían los proponentes de ambos documentos e xplicar asimismo de qué manera una nueva 
prórroga de este período para la el iminación gradual garan tizaría finalmente el éxito de esos esfuerzos 
a fin de evitar que se produzca una situación similar al  final de cualquier nuevo período de prórroga 
para la eliminación gradual de  determinados programas de subvenciones a la exportación? 
Pregunta 3  
 Recordando que la prórroga anterior del período  para la eliminación gradual de determinados 
programas de subvenciones a la exportación se otor gó por un período adicional de 6 años, ¿podrían 
los proponentes de ambos documentos explicar las razones que justifican la prórroga propuesta 
de 11 años?

I. INTRODUCCIÓN 
 A tenor de lo dispuesto en el párrafo 1 de l artículo 13 del Acuerdo SMC, antes de la 
iniciación de una investigación en materia de der echos compensatorios se invitará a los Miembros 
exportadores que puedan estar sujetos a esa inves tigación a celebrar consultas con el Miembro 
importador con objeto de dilucidar la situación respecto de las cuestiones a que se refiere el párrafo 2 
del artículo 11  (información contenida en la solicitud escrita) y llegar a una solución mutuamente 
convenida.  China considera que la obligación de  que se trata no se establece con la suficiente 
precisión por lo que se han planteado en la prácti ca varios problemas que socavan considerablemente 
la efectividad de las consultas previas a la iniciación.

REPORT (2007) OF THE WORKING GROU P ON TRADE, DEBT AND FINANCE  
TO THE GENERAL COUNCIL 
 
Draft
 
  
1. Under the Chairmanship of Mr. Ravi Bangar (India), the Working Group met on 
14 September 2007, after a series of informal consulta tions held by the Chairman. The minutes of this 
meeting are contained in WTO Document WT/WGTDF/M/15.   
2. In its two previous meetings held in 2006, the Group had found no consensus on possible 
recommendations (if any) on steps that might be ta ken within the mandate and competence of the 
WTO, according to the terms of paragraph 36 of the Doha Ministerial Declaration. Consultations held 
by the Chair aimed at identifying whether Members s till had an interest in the topics that had provided 
the basis for earlier examination, and whether ne w topics that would fall within the scope of 
paragraph 36 of the Doha Declaration had emer ged in the meantime – taking into account the 
requirements to avoid duplication of work undertaken in other bodies of the WTO.  
3. After an exchange of views during the formal meeting of 14 September 2007, and in view of 
the willingness of some Members to revisit certain topics of interest or concern to them, it was 
suggested that these Members follow-up with written submissions. When such submissions will be 
made available to other Members, further informal consultations will be held by the Chairman with a 
view to examine how they might help the Work ing Group pursue its work in a more focused and 
productive way.  
4. On [xx] November 2007, the Working Group adopted its Annual Report (2007) to the 
General Council on a lapse-of-time basis.
