Text 4: The World Trade Organisation
The World Trade Organisation (the WTO) was established on 1 January 1995, and is the legal and institutional basis of the multilateral trading system. It provides the principal contractual obligations determining how governments frame and implement domestic trade legislation and regulations.
The essential functions of the WTO are:
administering and implementing the multilateral and plurilateral trade agreements which together make up he WTO;
acting as a forum for multilateral trade negotiations;
seeking to resolve trade disputes;
overseeing national trade policies;
cooperating with other international institutions involved in global economic policy-making.
In accordance with the “most favoured nation” (MFN) clause, members are to grant to the products of other members no less favourable treatment than that accorded to the products of any other country. Quotas are generally outlawed, but tariffs or customs duties are legal in the WTO. The WTO Agreement on agriculture is designed to provide increased fairness in farm trade. The WTO agreement on intellectual property will improve conditions of competition. And another agreement will do the same for trade in services.
Developing countries are given transition periods to adjust to the more difficult WTO provisions. Least-developed countries are given even more flexibility for their goods.
The WTO authorities are:
the Ministerial Conference.
the General Council.
three Councils:
for Trade in Goods
for Trade in Services
for Trade-Related Aspects of intellectual
Property Rights
four Committees:
on Trade and Development
on Balanceof Payment
on Trade and Environment
on Budget, Finance and Administration
