Committee on Agricultural Trade establishes a Committee on Agricultural Trade which is comprised of representatives of each Party. The Committee will be a forum for the promotion of trade in agricultural goods between the Parties, monitoring and promoting the implementation of the agricultural goods section of this Chapter as well as consultation on the same. In Article 2.29, CPTPP Parties confirm the importance of transparency, cooperation and exchanging information related to the trade of “products of modern biotechnology”, as defined in CPTPP. The text specifically acknowledges that it does not require any changes to CPTPP Parties’ existing laws, regulations and policies. All provisions – such as the requirement to make publicly available certain information relating to documentation requirements to apply for authorisation of products of biotechnology – are subject to a Party’s existing laws, regulations and policies. In addition, when available and subject to domestic laws, regulations and policies, the Parties have agreed to share certain information relating to an occurrence of a low level presence (LLP) of material that is the product of modern biotechnology. A CPTPP country facing a LLP occurrence must ensure that the measures applied to address the LLP occurrence (with the exception of penalties) are appropriate to achieve compliance with its own laws, regulations and policies. In order to reduce the likelihood of trade disruptions from LLP occurrences, each exporting Party must also, again consistent with its domestic laws, regulations and policies, endeavour to encourage technology developers to submit applications to CPTPP Parties for authorisation of plants and plant products of modern biotechnology. Parties that authorise plant and plant products derived from modern biotechnology shall endeavour to allow year-round submission and review of applications for authorisation of the plants and plant products and to increase communications between CPTPP Parties relating to any new authorisations. A working group on products of modern biotechnology will also be established under the Committee on Agriculture. This working group, open to those Parties that choose to be part of it, will provide a forum for information exchange and cooperation on trade-related matters associated with products of modern biotechnology.
