TRADE AND ENVIRONMENT COMMITTEE TO THE WTO:
The
Sub-Committee on Trade and Environment of the Preparatory Committee
to the World Trade Organization will meet for one day on 12 July
1994 in Geneva. In essence, the issues to be discussed in this
Committee will be a continuation of those dealt with by the
recently revived and now defunct Group on Environmental Measures
and International Trade. This meeting will give a first reading to
issues that the governments feel should be given priority, building
on discussions held within the GATT. The Sub-Committee has a
two-and-a-half year mandate to examine its terms of reference as
established in the Marrakech Declaration on Trade and Environment.
Information will be available from the Secretariat and in "Trade
and Environment," published by the GATT. For information on
receiving this publication, contact Sabrina Shaw, Economic Affairs
Officer, Technical Barriers to Trade and Trade and Environment
Division, GATT Secretariat, 154 Rue de Lausanne, 1211 Geneva 21,
Switzerland, fax: +41-22 731-4206.
