Normas Federales de Seguridad de los Vehí culos Automóviles – Espejos retrovisores  
ORGANISMO: Administración Na cional de Seguridad del Tráf ico por Carretera (NHTSA), 
Departamento de Transportes (DOT)  
MEDIDA: Anulación de un procedimiento regulador  
 RESUMEN: A raíz de una solicitud de apertura de  un proceso regulador, en 2005 la Administración 
Nacional de Seguridad del Tráfico por Carrete ra (NHTSA) propuso la modificación de la 
Norma Federal de Seguridad de los Vehículos Autom óviles N° 111, "Espejos retrovisores", para que 
se prescribiera que los camiones cerrados de p eso bruto nominal comprendido entre 4.536 Kg 
(10.000 libras) y 11.793 Kg (26.000 libras) estuvier an equipados con un sistema retrovisor capaz de 
indicar la presencia de objetos situados directamente detrás del vehículo. Los datos más precisos obtenidos desde la publicación del Aviso de propuest a reguladora en 2005 indican que el parque de 
camiones medianos está involucrado sólo en 4 de la s 183 víctimas mortales debidas a los accidentes 
ocasionados por las maniobras de marcha atrás.  Además, la recientemente promulgada Ley Cameron Gulbranson relativa a la seguridad del transporte de niños 2007\1\ (Ley de seguridad K.T. 2007), 
dispone que la NHTSA revise la No rma Federal sobre visibilidad posterior, con el fin específico de 
reducir los accidentes debidos a maniobras de retr oceso de los vehículos, que afectan a niños y 
personas discapacitadas. Después de examinar est os elementos, la Administración considera más 
adecuado abordar la seguridad del retroceso de los camiones cerrados como parte de un amplio 
esfuerzo para tratar de manera gene ral la seguridad de la parte posterior de los vehículos, así como 
aportar soluciones una vez completadas la investigaci ón y la recopilación en curso de los datos sobre 
la seguridad del retroceso de los vehículos. En consecuencia se anula el procedimiento regulador 
indicado.

Questions Posed by CANADA  
Regarding Documents G/SCM/W/535 and G/SCM/W/537

Delegation of Canada.   
_______________ 
  
BARBADOS 
 
 Canada refers to documents  G/SCM/W/535 dated 12 April 2006, which was sponsored by 14 
Members and co-sponsored by Guatemala in G/SCM/W/535/add.1, and G/SCM/W/537, a 
communication from Panama dated 23 June 2006, whic h was co-sponsored by Costa Rica and Jordan 
in G/SCM/W/537/Add.1 and Add.2 respectively.  Canada would like to submit the following questions to all proponents of the aforementioned documents.   Q1. Recalling that the objective of G/SCM/39 was to  provide an extension of the transition period 
for the progressive elimination of export subsidy programmes of a number of Members, as called for 
in Article 27.4 of the SCM Agreement, we  would ask the proponents of G/SCM/W/535 and 
G/SCM/W/537 to inform the Committee on Subsidies and Countervailing Measures of the individual efforts, if any, they have undertaken to gr adually bring these export subsidy programmes into 
conformity with their WTO obligations.    
Q2. Could the proponents of both documents also explain how further extension of this phase-out 
period would ensure that these efforts are finally successfully undertaken in order to avoid a similar situation at the end of any new extended phase-out pe riod for certain export subsidy programmes?     
  Q3. Recalling that the previous extension of the phase-out period for certain export subsidy 
programmes was for an additional period of 6 year s, could the proponents of both documents explain 
the rationale for a proposed extension of 11 years?

Cotton Projects
 
 
Communication from Benin 
 
  The following communication, dated 7 October 2008, is being circulated at the request of the delegation of Benin. 
 
_______________ 
 
 
STATUS OF THE SUPPORT PROGRAMME FOR DYNAMIC 
PRODUCTION ACTIVITIES (PADYP) 
 
 
I. OBJECTIVES 
1. The PADYP's priority aim concerns the agricu ltural development of cotton-growing areas, 
combined with the strengthening of dynamic produc tion activities.  Specifically, it will focus on: 
(a) Upstream consolidation of the cotton sector and strengthening of the Family Farm 
Council (CEF);  and, 
(b) strengthening the professional and inte rprofessional structures of the sector. 
II. EXPECTED RESULTS 
2. As a result of project implementation, it will be possible to: 
(a) Increase the income and profit margins of farms;  and 
(b) control production costs, raise yiel ds and increase average sales prices. 
III. PROJECT COST 
3. The total project cost is estimated at CFAF 6.5 billion or €10 million, 10 per cent of which is 
to be financed by the beneficiaries and the re mainder by a grant from the French Development 
Agency (AFD). 
4. The State's contribution will take the form of  tax exemptions for the purchase of project 
equipment. WT/CFMC/W/42 
Page 2  
 
   
IV. DISBURSEMENTS 
5. None.  The project has not yet been implemen ted.  Project management recruitment is 
currently under way. 
V. PROGRESS IN PROGRAMME FORMULATION 
6. The PADYP formulation process started in 2003 following the favourable response from the 
AFD to the request for financing of the second ph ase of the Farming System Diversification and 
Improvement Project (PADSE).  The appraisal process for that project has been delayed by about one year. 
7. Following the feasibility study used as a basis for drawing up the above-mentioned 
programme, the following actions were taken in the formulation process: 
(a) Assessment and follow-up mission by Mr Pouilles from 10 to 18 July 2006; 
(b) initiation of pre-qualification procedures and sorting activities – selection of two 
international offices following pre-qualificati on – signing of the funding convention; 
(c) preparation of the invitation to tender fo r project management selection purposes. 
VI. REMAINING ACTION TO BE TAKEN 
8. Project management recruitment.  This is at th e initial bid stage.  The technical proposal has 
been analysed and the AFD has issued an opi nion signalling no objection.  Following project 
management recruitment, the remaining stages, namely notification of award, service order and 
signature of the contract will pave the way for actual implementation of the PADYP in the 
first quarter of 2008.
