EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES – REGIME FOR THE IMPORTATION, 
SALE AND DISTRIBUTION OF BANANAS 
 
Recourse to Article 21.5 of the DSU by Ecuador
 
 
Request to Join Consultations  
 
Communication from Dominica 
 
 
 The following communication, dated 30 November  2006, from the delegation of Dominica to 
the delegation of the European Communities, the de legation of Ecuador and to the Chairman of the 
Dispute Settlement Body, is circulated in accordance with Article 4.11 of the DSU.  
_______________ 
  
 Member States of the WTO were notified in WT/DS27/65 of 20 November 2006, entitled 
European Communities – Regime for the Importation,  Sale and Distribution of Bananas, Recourse to 
Article 21.5 of the DSU by Ecuador , that Ecuador requested cons ultations with the European 
Communities, pursuant to Article 4 of the Unders tanding on Rules and Procedures Governing the 
Settlement of Disputes (DSU) and Article XXIII of the GATT regarding compliance of the EC 
measures with Articles I, II and XIII of the GATT 1 994.  In its revised note, WT/DS27/65/Rev.1 of 
29 November 2006, Ecuador submitte d a new request superseding the former, for consultations under 
Article XXII relative to consultations, indicating that it did not "intend[ed] to exclude participation by 
other interested parties in the consultations".  
 The content of the request for consultations indicates, without any doubt, that it is the 
preferential regime from which the Commonwealth of Dominica, the Windward Islands and other 
Caribbean producers, as Members of ACP banana-expor ting States benefit, which is essentially being 
contested by Ecuador.  
 You are well aware of the significance to th e economies of the ACP banana-producing States 
and to the economy of the Commonwealth of Dominica a nd we thus have a substantial interest in the 
EC banana trade.  Thus, in accordance with Article  4.11 of the Dispute Settlement Understanding, on 
behalf of the Commonwealth of Dominica, I formally advise you of the interest of the ACP States of which my country is a member, to participate fully  in the consultations wh ich will be held between 
the European Communities and Ecuador. 
  I look forward to your support and approval of our formal request to participate in these consultations.

2. À la page 1, les premier et deuxième paragraphes doivent se lire comme suit : 
"1. Le coton revêt un poids économique et social majeur pour le Tchad car il a un impact direct 
sur la majorité de la population en termes de reve nus et des services.  Plus de trois millions de 
tchadiens tirent directement ou indirectement l'essentiel  de leurs revenus de la culture du coton.  En 
plus des revenus directs que cette culture injecte dans  le monde rural, elle participe à la construction 
des infrastructures sociales (écol es, dispensaires, puits, pistes co tonnières, etc.) nécessaires au 
développement rural." 
"2. Au Tchad, cette culture constitue le mote ur du développement socioéconomique du pays 
depuis des décennies.  C'est le premier produit d' exportation car il fournit jusqu'à 40% des recettes 
d'exportation jouant ainsi un rôle  prépondérant dans l'économie tc hadienne après le pétrole dont 
l'exportation ne remonte qu'en 2003.  Il est le premie r emprunteur du système bancaire et financier, le 
premier pourvoyeur de marché de s ous-traitance et de fournitures." 
3. À la page 3, supprimer l'alin éa i) et le paragraphe 10.

NOTIFICATION OF LAWS AND REGULATIONS UNDER 
ARTICLE 12.6 OF THE AGREEMENT 
 
Replies to the Questions Posed by the UNITED STATES
1 
Regarding the Replies by EL SALVADOR2 
 
  The following communication, dated 5 May 2009, is being circulated at the request of the 
delegation of El Salvador
. 
 
_______________ 
 
 
Question 1  
 
 Please refer to the United States' question 7 re questing the identification of the national 
newspapers that would publish resolutions regarding  the initiation of a safeguard investigation 
and the imposition of preliminary and/or final measures.  El Salvador states that there is no 
official journal yet for the Central American Inte gration System;  however, there is no mention 
of which national newspapers would publish these notifications.  Could El Salvador please 
identify which national newspap ers would publish these notifications? 
 
Reply  
  As stated in Article 38 of the Central American Regulations on Safeguard Measures (hereinafter the " Regulations "), resolutions in respect of the initiation of an investigation and the 
application of provisional safeguard measures and the final resolution shall be published " in one of the 
daily newspapers with national circulation " and in the Diario Oficial de El Salvador  (Official 
Journal). 
Question 2
 
 
 Please refer to the United States' question 8 regarding the semi-annual report that each 
state party shall submit to the Executive Commit tee for Economic Integration, through SIECA, 
on the implementation of the Regulations .  El Salvador's response seems to indicate that each 
interested party affected by a safeguard action undertaken by El Salvador will receive notification of the semi-annual report submitte d to the Executive Committee for Economic 
Integration.  However, the Regulations  indicate that the submitted report does not pertain to a 
particular safeguard investigation or meas ure;  rather, the report pertains to the 
implementation of the Regulations  themselves.  Please clarify whether and how these 
semi-annual reports will be accessible to the public.

  Reply
 
  The term " interested party " is to be understood as defined in Article 1 of the Regulations , 
hence the reference to Article 43 of this legal instrument.  
 The obligation contained in Article 41 refers  to the information to be submitted to the 
Executive Committee for Economic Integration by a State Party to the Regulations on the 
implementation of this instrument.  This informa tion is submitted for the purpose of discussions on 
the application of the provi sions and the commitments of the Parti es, i.e. each State Party, as defined 
in the Regulations ;  there are no plans to make such information public at this stage.

  The Committee on Regional Trade Agreements (CRTA) agreed, on 13 October 2006, to recommend to the CTG the adoption of a common format  for such notifications, as contained in the

systematic and coherent way.  The notifica tion would be reproduced, as appropriate, in a 
multi-symbol official WTO document.

Delegation of India.

PROPOSAL ON GATT ARTICLE VIII 
 
 
I. INTRODUCTION 
1. In paper TN/TF/W/77, India had presented certain proposals for improvement and 
clarification of GATT Article VIII.  The present submission presents India's textual suggestions for those proposals. The modalities set out in Annex D place special emphasis on the identification of 
needs and priorities of developing countries as an inte gral part of the trade facilitation negotiations.  It 
is against this background that the current proposals are made. 
II. PROPOSALS 
• For border clearance of goods, and in particular for clearance of agriculture and food 
products, member states of a customs union shall adopt the same border procedures.  This shall include adoption of same standards including specifications, terminologies and 
definitions, inspection, sampling and test methods.  
• All documentation requirements re lating to import clearance shall be uniform for all member 
states of a customs union.  
• Norms for authorized trader status shall be applied uniformly by all member states of a 
customs union.  
• A customs union shall generally apply a harm onized risk management system across the 
entire customs union.  
• In case of rejection of a food consignment on accoun t of failure to meet certain standards, an 
option shall first be given to the exporter to return the rejected goods to the exporter; only 
upon failure by the exporter to exercise this op tion within a reasonable period of time, can a

  III. TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE 
2. Most of the proposals are aimed at improving bo rder clearance procedures through procedural 
improvements.  This may not require specific techni cal assistance.  Some other proposals are more in 
the nature of systemic issues and may not again re quire any significant amount of technical assistance 
and capacity building.  There may however be need to organize Workshops at the international level 
to apprise the border clearance officials of the requi rements in force.  We are open to discuss these 
issues.
