Multilateral Rules Sample Clauses

Multilateral Rules. At the multilateral level, the basis of the multilateral trading system is con- tained in the GATT 1994 and the other multilateral agreements on trade in goods that form part of the WTO Agreement. These agreements include the Agreement on Safeguards, which is the main regulatory body on safeguard matters. The Agreement on Safeguards is a normative development derived from Article XIX of the GATT 1994. This provision is the main authority for the imposition of safeguard measures. As the preamble of the Agreement on Safeguards recognizes, the Agreement on Safeguards is a response to the ‘need to clarify and reinforce the disciplines of GATT 1994, and specifically those of its Article XIX (Emergency Action on Imports of Particular Products)’. In addition to Article XIX, the GATT 1994 contains other provisions that have an impact on the conduct of safeguard-related matters such as Article X. Article X:1 requires the publication of rules of general application on trade restrictions or methods relating to their establishment. It applies to safeguard procedures and specific safeguard measures as recognised in Article 3.1, first sentence of the Agreement on Safeguards,5 as well as to the publication of the final determination of a safeguard investigation, in accordance with Article 3.1, third sentence of the Agreement on Safeguards,6 and the decision to impose a safeguard measure. In addition, Article X:3(a) requires the uniform, impartial and reasonable administration of laws and regulations that must be published in accordance with Article X:1. This provision requires that domestic safeguard regulations must be applied in the light of those standards. Article XIII of the GATT 1994 requires the non-discriminatory adminis- tration of restrictions and tariff-rate quotas among exporting supplying coun- tries. This provision is applicable when a Member imposes a safeguard in the form of a quantitative restriction or a tariff-rate quota (TRQ).7 At the time of 5 See Chapter 3, Section 3.3. 6 See Chapter 3, Section 5.1. 7 Panel Report, US – Line Pipe, paras. 7.30–7.50.
