skúsenostiam s uplatňovaním colných koncesií alebo zmenám v nomenklatúr e HS, či sa majú dodatky zmeniť tak, aby
zahŕňali dodatočné produkty a prediskutovať netarifné prekážky obchodu s produktmi informačných technológií. Takéto
konzultácie sa vykonávajú bez toho, aby to malo dopad na práva a povinnosti podľa dohôd WTO.
