MODIFICACIÓN PROPUESTA DEL APÉNDICE I DEL JAPÓN 
 
Comunicación del Japón de conformidad con el
  
párrafo 6 a) del artículo XXIV1 del ACP  
 
 
 La siguiente comunicación, de fecha 21 de j unio de 2010, se distribuye a petición de la 
delegación del Japón. 
_______________ 
 1. De conformidad con el párrafo 6 a) del ar tículo XXIV del Acuerdo sobre Contratación 
Pública (en adelante "el Acuerdo"), el Gobierno  del Japón notifica por la presente al Comité de 
Contratación Pública la siguiente modificación de carácter puramente formal propuestas en relación con el Anexo 3 del Apéndice I del Acuerdo: 
Anexo 3 
- Sustitúyase "National Science Museum" por "National Museum of Nature and 
Science" de la lista de entidades (Grupo B) y la lista de entidades que contratan los 
servicios indicados en el Anexo 4 (Grupo B), respectivamente.  
 - Añádase "National Institute of Occupational Sa fety and Health" a la lista  de entidades 
(Grupo B) y a la lista de entidades que c ontratan los servicios indicados en el 
Anexo 4 (Grupo B), respectivamente. 
2. La modificación anterior se debe a que en abril de 2007 se modificó el nombre en inglés del 
museo para aclarar que se trata de un museo de ciencia y naturaleza.  Esa modificación no altera el nivel del alcance mutuamente convenido previsto en el Acuerdo. 
3. En el anexo A del presente documento se muestra la modificación propuesta de las páginas 
correspondientes del Anexo 3 (páginas 2/5 y 4/5) de l Apéndice I sobre la base de esta notificación del 
Japón.  En el anexo B se indica cómo quedarían dichas páginas una vez introducida la modificación 
propuesta sobre la base de la notificación.

rectificaciones, las transferencias de entidades de un An exo a otro o, en casos excepcionales, las enmiendas de 
otro tipo que afecten a los Apéndices I a IV serán notif icadas al Comité, y en la notificación se facilitará 
información en cuanto a las probables consecuencias del cambio en el al cance mutuamente co nvenido previsto 
en el Acuerdo.  Las rectificaciones, transferencias o enmiendas de otro tipo de ca rácter puramente formal o 
menores surtirán efecto a condición de qu e en un plazo de 30 días no se presen te objeción a ellas.  De no ser así, 
el Presidente del Comité convocará prontamente una reunión del Comité.  El Comité examinará la propuesta y 
las posibles demandas de arreglos compensatorios, con el fin de mantener un equilibrio de derechos y 
obligaciones y un nivel comparable del alcance mutuamente conven ido previsto en el presente Acuerdo antes de 
la notificación de que se trate.  En caso de que no se lle gue a un acuerdo, podrá llevarse adelante la cuestión con 
arreglo a las disposiciones del artículo XXII.
