Technical Discussions. 1. A Party may, through Contact Points, request technical discussions with another Party on any sanitary or phytosanitary measure affecting trade between it and that other Party. The other Party shall respond promptly to any such request. The two Parties shall seek to clarify any measure at issue and, where there is any remaining difference of view, shall endeavour to find a mutually acceptable solution, taking into account the objectives of trade facilitation and of minimising the negative trade effects of sanitary and phytosanitary measures. In the case of measures affecting the export interests of a developing country Party, the Parties concerned should seek to resolve any concerns in a timely manner.
