DIRECTOR-GENERAL'S CONSULTATIVE FRAMEWORK MECHANISM 
ON COTTON 
 
Evolving Working Table  
 
Revision  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  Explanatory Notes
 
 
The High-Level Session on Cotton took place from 15 to 16 March 2007.  The exchange of 
views provided guidance for several changes to be made to the format and methodology of the Cotton Development Assistance Table.  As follow-up a nd pursuant to the HLS outcomes (TN/AG/SCC/7), 
the following specific changes have been introduced to the Table:  
• Re-division of the Evolving Table into 3 parts . The new Table now distinguishes between 
assistance directly related to cotton; assistance  which may be related to cotton when provided 
under more general agricultural or infrastructur e support programs; and assistance in the form 
of available resources for cotton which requires specific applications to be made by cotton-
producing countries.  
Part I of the table is entitled "Cotton Specific Development Assistance;" Part II "Agriculture 
and Infrastructure-Related Development Assi stance," and Part III "Available/Accessible 
Resources."  This new structure has necessitated that a number of entries in the previous Table be re-classified to make the distinction clearer between the different types of assistance 
provided to the cotton sector. 
• Sectional summary breakdown of value and operational status of development 
assistance :  The attached Table has been reorganised to provide only "sectional totals" for the 
value and operational status of the development assistance.  The objective has been to better 
reflect the development assistance picture on the ground. These sectional summaries can be 
found on pages 9 of Part I and 15 of Part II.

responsibility and without prejudice to the positions of Members and to their rights and obligations under the WTO WT/CFMC/6/Rev.2 
Page 2  
 
   In Part III, the sectional summary (on page 19) is  designed to reflect the new contents of this 
section.  As follow-up to the HLS, Part III will s hortly be further revised to contain joint IMF 
and World Bank Multilateral Debt Relief Initiativ e (MDRI) entries in the "Values" column**, 
and non-project tied grants. In the column  entitled "Cotton Available Amounts", the 
Secretariat will be entering actual cotton-rela ted expenditure from MDRI resources as soon as 
these are reported to it by Members.  The va lues for this column cannot be determined ex 
ante.   The sectional summary reflects this. 
 
• Entries prior to, and completed by, 2004 have been deleted :  Pre-2004 entries can be found 
in previous versions of the Table (WT/L/670).  
• Disbursement column : As signalled in the last version of the Table (WT/L/670: 
paragraph 3), a new column has been created on disbursement status.  The purpose is to 
monitor commitments and disbursements by the development community.
