AGREEMENT ON TEXTILES AND
CLOTHING
Members,
Recalling that Ministers agreed at Punta del Este that "negotiations in the
area of textiles and
clothing shall aim to formulate
modalities that would permit the eventual integration of this sector into
GATT on the basis of strengthened GATT
rules and disciplines, thereby also contributing to the objective
of further liberalization of
trade";
Recalling also that in the April 1989 Decision of the Trade Negotiations Committee
it was agreed
that the process of integration should
commence following the conclusion of the Uruguay Round of
Multilateral Trade Negotiations and
should be progressive in character;
Recalling further that it was agreed that special treatment should be accorded to
the leastdeveloped
country Members;
Hereby agree as follows:
Article 1
1. This Agreement sets out provisions
to be applied by Members during a transition period for
the integration of the textiles and
clothing sector into GATT 1994.
2. Members agree to use the provisions
of paragraph 18 of Article 2 and paragraph 6(b) of Article 6
in such a way as to permit meaningful
increases in access possibilities for small suppliers and the
development of commercially significant
trading opportunities for new entrants in the field of textiles
and clothing trade.1
3. Members shall have due regard to the
situation of those Members which have not accepted
the Protocols extending the Arrangement
Regarding International Trade in Textiles (referred to in this
Agreement as the "MFA") since
1986 and, to the extent possible, shall afford them special treatment
in applying the provisions of this
Agreement.
4. Members agree that the particular
interests of the cotton-producing exporting Members should,
in consultation with them, be reflected
in the implementation of the provisions of this Agreement.
5. In order to facilitate the
integration of the textiles and clothing sector into GATT 1994, Members
should allow for continuous autonomous
industrial adjustment and increased competition in their markets.
6. Unless otherwise provided in this
Agreement, its provisions shall not affect the rights and
obligations of Members under the
provisions of the WTO Agreement and the Multilateral Trade
Agreements.
7. The textile and clothing products to
which this Agreement applies are set out in the Annex.
1To
the extent possible, exports from a least-developed country Member may also
benefit from this provision.
Page 86
Article 2
1. All quantitative restrictions within
bilateral agreements maintained under Article 4 or notified
under Article 7 or 8 of the MFA in
force on the day before the entry into force of the WTO Agreement
shall, within 60 days following such
entry into force, be notified in detail, including the restraint levels,
growth rates and flexibility
provisions, by the Members maintaining such restrictions to the Textiles
Monitoring Body provided for in Article
8 (referred to in this Agreement as the "TMB"). Members
agree that as of the date of entry into
force of the WTO Agreement, all such restrictions maintained
between GATT 1947 contracting parties,
and in place on the day before such entry into force, shall
be governed by the provisions of this
Agreement.
2. The TMB shall circulate these
notifications to all Members for their information. It is open
to any Member to bring to the attention
of the TMB, within 60 days of the circulation of the notifications,
any observations it deems appropriate
with regard to such notifications. Such observations shall be
circulated to the other Members for
their information. The TMB may make recommendations, as
appropriate, to the Members concerned.
3. When the 12-month period of
restrictions to be notified under paragraph 1 does not coincide
with the 12-month period immediately
preceding the date of entry into force of the WTO Agreement,
the Members concerned should mutually
agree on arrangements to bring the period of restrictions into
line with the agreement year2, and to establish notional base levels of such
restrictions in order to
implement the provisions of this
Article. Concerned Members agree to enter into consultations promptly
upon request with a view to reaching
such mutual agreement. Any such arrangements shall take into
account, inter alia, seasonal
patterns of shipments in recent years. The results of these consultations
shall be notified to the TMB, which
shall make such recommendations as it deems appropriate to the
Members concerned.
4. The restrictions notified under
paragraph 1 shall be deemed to constitute the totality of such
restrictions applied by the respective Members
on the day before the entry into force of the WTO
Agreement. No new restrictions in terms
of products or Members shall be introduced except under
the provisions of this Agreement or
relevant GATT 1994 provisions.3 Restrictions
not notified within
60 days of the date of entry into force
of the WTO Agreement shall be terminated forthwith.
5. Any unilateral measure taken under
Article 3 of the MFA prior to the date of entry into force
of the WTO Agreement may remain in
effect for the duration specified therein, but not exceeding
12 months, if it has been reviewed by
the Textiles Surveillance Body (referred to in this Agreement
as the "TSB") established
under the MFA. Should the TSB not have had the opportunity to review
any such unilateral measure, it shall
be reviewed by the TMB in accordance with the rules and procedures
governing Article 3 measures under the
MFA. Any measure applied under an MFA Article 4 agreement
prior to the date of entry into force
of the WTO Agreement that is the subject of a dispute which the
TSB has not had the opportunity to
review shall also be reviewed by the TMB in accordance with the
MFA rules and procedures applicable for
such a review.
6. On the date of entry into force of
the WTO Agreement, each Member shall integrate into GATT
1994 products which accounted for not
less than 16 per cent of the total volume of the Member’s 1990
imports of the products in the Annex,
in terms of HS lines or categories. The products to be integrated
2The
"agreement year" is defined to mean a 12-month period beginning from
the date of entry into force of the WTO
Agreement and at the subsequent
12-month intervals.
3The
relevant GATT 1994 provisions shall not include Article XIX in respect of
products not yet integrated into GATT 1994,
except as specifically provided in
paragraph 3 of the Annex.
Page 87
shall encompass products from each of
the following four groups: tops and yarns, fabrics, made-up
textile products, and clothing.
7. Full details of the actions to be
taken pursuant to paragraph 6 shall be notified by the Members
concerned according to the following:
(a) Members maintaining restrictions
falling under paragraph 1 undertake, notwithstanding
the date of entry into force of the WTO
Agreement, to notify such details to the GATT
Secretariat not later than the date
determined by the Ministerial Decision of
15 April 1994. The GATT Secretariat
shall promptly circulate these notifications to
the other participants for information.
These notifications will be made available to
the TMB, when established, for the
purposes of paragraph 21;
(b) Members which have, pursuant to
paragraph 1 of Article 6, retained the right to use
the provisions of Article 6, shall
notify such details to the TMB not later than 60 days
following the date of entry into force
of the WTO Agreement, or, in the case of those
Members covered by paragraph 3 of
Article 1, not later than at the end of the 12th
month that the WTO Agreement is in
effect. The TMB shall circulate these notifications
to the other Members for information
and review them as provided in paragraph 21.
8. The remaining products, i.e. the
products not integrated into GATT 1994 under paragraph 6,
shall be integrated, in terms of HS
lines or categories, in three stages, as follows:
(a) on the first day of the 37th month
that the WTO Agreement is in effect, products which
accounted for not less than 17 per cent
of the total volume of the Member’s 1990 imports
of the products in the Annex. The
products to be integrated by the Members shall
encompass products from each of the
following four groups: tops and yarns, fabrics,
made-up textile products, and clothing;
(b) on the first day of the 85th month
that the WTO Agreement is in effect, products which
accounted for not less than 18 per cent
of the total volume of the Member’s 1990 imports
of the products in the Annex. The
products to be integrated by the Members shall
encompass products from each of the
following four groups: tops and yarns, fabrics,
made-up textile products, and clothing;
(c) on the first day of the 121st month
that the WTO Agreement is in effect, the textiles
and clothing sector shall stand
integrated into GATT 1994, all restrictions under this
Agreement having been eliminated.
9. Members which have notified,
pursuant to paragraph 1 of Article 6, their intention not to retain
the right to use the provisions of
Article 6 shall, for the purposes of this Agreement, be deemed to have
integrated their textiles and clothing
products into GATT 1994. Such Members shall, therefore, be
exempted from complying with the
provisions of paragraphs 6 to 8 and 11.
10. Nothing in this Agreement shall
prevent a Member which has submitted an integration programme
pursuant to paragraph 6 or 8 from
integrating products into GATT 1994 earlier than provided for in
such a programme. However, any such
integration of products shall take effect at the beginning of
an agreement year, and details shall be
notified to the TMB at least three months prior thereto for
circulation to all Members.
11. The respective programmes of
integration, in pursuance of paragraph 8, shall be notified in
detail to the TMB at least 12 months
before their coming into effect, and circulated by the TMB to
all Members.
Page 88
12. The base levels of the restrictions
on the remaining products, mentioned in paragraph 8, shall
be the restraint levels referred to in
paragraph 1.
13. During Stage 1 of this Agreement
(from the date of entry into force of the WTO Agreement
to the 36th month that it is in effect,
inclusive) the level of each restriction under MFA bilateral
agreements in force for the 12-month
period prior to the date of entry into force of the WTO Agreement
shall be increased annually by not less
than the growth rate established for the respective restrictions,
increased by 16 per cent.
14. Except where the Council for Trade
in Goods or the Dispute Settlement Body decides otherwise
under paragraph 12 of Article 8, the
level of each remaining restriction shall be increased annually
during subsequent stages of this
Agreement by not less than the following:
(a) for Stage 2 (from the 37th to the
84th month that the WTO Agreement is in effect,
inclusive), the growth rate for the
respective restrictions during Stage 1, increased by
25 per cent;
(b) for Stage 3 (from the 85th to the
120th month that the WTO Agreement is in effect,
inclusive), the growth rate for the
respective restrictions during Stage 2, increased by
27 per cent.
15. Nothing in this Agreement shall
prevent a Member from eliminating any restriction maintained
pursuant to this Article, effective at
the beginning of any agreement year during the transition period,
provided the exporting Member concerned
and the TMB are notified at least three months prior to the
elimination coming into effect. The
period for prior notification may be shortened to 30 days with
the agreement of the restrained Member.
The TMB shall circulate such notifications to all Members.
In considering the elimination of
restrictions as envisaged in this paragraph, the Members concerned
shall take into account the treatment
of similar exports from other Members.
16. Flexibility provisions, i.e. swing,
carryover and carry forward, applicable to all restrictions
maintained pursuant to this Article,
shall be the same as those provided for in MFA bilateral agreements
for the 12-month period prior to the
entry into force of the WTO Agreement. No quantitative limits
shall be placed or maintained on the
combined use of swing, carryover and carry forward.
17. Administrative arrangements, as
deemed necessary in relation to the implementation of any
provision of this Article, shall be a
matter for agreement between the Members concerned. Any such
arrangements shall be notified to the
TMB.
18. As regards those Members whose
exports are subject to restrictions on the day before the entry
into force of the WTO Agreement and
whose restrictions represent 1.2 per cent or less of the total volume
of the restrictions applied by an
importing Member as of 31 December 1991 and notified under this
Article, meaningful improvement in
access for their exports shall be provided, at the entry into force
of the WTO Agreement and for the
duration of this Agreement, through advancement by one stage
of the growth rates set out in
paragraphs 13 and 14, or through at least equivalent changes as may be
mutually agreed with respect to a
different mix of base levels, growth and flexibility provisions. Such
improvements shall be notified to the
TMB.
19. In any case, during the duration of
this Agreement, in which a safeguard measure is initiated
by a Member under Article XIX of GATT
1994 in respect of a particular product during a period of
one year immediately following the
integration of that product into GATT 1994 in accordance with
the provisions of this Article, the
provisions of Article XIX, as interpreted by the Agreement on
Safeguards, will apply, save as set out
in paragraph 20.
Page 89
20. Where such a measure is applied
using non-tariff means, the importing Member concerned
shall apply the measure in a manner as
set forth in paragraph 2(d) of Article XIII of GATT 1994 at
the request of any exporting Member
whose exports of such products were subject to restrictions under
this Agreement at any time in the
one-year period immediately prior to the initiation of the safeguard
measure. The exporting Member concerned
shall administer such a measure. The applicable level
shall not reduce the relevant exports
below the level of a recent representative period, which shall
normally be the average of exports from
the Member concerned in the last three representative years
for which statistics are available.
Furthermore, when the safeguard measure is applied for more than
one year, the applicable level shall be
progressively liberalized at regular intervals during the period
of application. In such cases the
exporting Member concerned shall not exercise the right of suspending
substantially equivalent concessions or
other obligations under paragraph 3(a) of Article XIX of GATT
1994.
21. The TMB shall keep under review the
implementation of this Article. It shall, at the request
of any Member, review any particular
matter with reference to the implementation of the provisions
of this Article. It shall make
appropriate recommendations or findings within 30 days to the Member
or Members concerned, after inviting
the participation of such Members.
Article 3
1. Within 60 days following the date of
entry into force of the WTO Agreement, Members
maintaining restrictions4 on textile and clothing products (other than restrictions
maintained under the
MFA and covered by the provisions of Article
2), whether consistent with GATT 1994 or not, shall
(a) notify them in detail to the
TMB, or (b) provide to the TMB notifications with respect to them which
have been submitted to any other WTO
body. The notifications should, wherever applicable, provide
information with respect to any GATT
1994 justification for the restrictions, including GATT 1994
provisions on which they are based.
2. Members maintaining restrictions
falling under paragraph 1, except those justified under a GATT
1994 provision, shall either:
(a) bring them into conformity with
GATT 1994 within one year following the entry into
force of the WTO Agreement, and notify
this action to the TMB for its information;
or
(b) phase them out progressively
according to a programme to be presented to the TMB
by the Member maintaining the
restrictions not later than six months after the date of
entry into force of the WTO Agreement.
This programme shall provide for all
restrictions to be phased out within a
period not exceeding the duration of this
Agreement. The TMB may make
recommendations to the Member concerned with
respect to such a programme.
3. During the duration of this
Agreement, Members shall provide to the TMB, for its information,
notifications submitted to any other
WTO bodies with respect to any new restrictions or changes in
existing restrictions on textile and
clothing products, taken under any GATT 1994 provision, within
60 days of their coming into effect.
4. It shall be open to any Member to
make reverse notifications to the TMB, for its information,
in regard to the GATT 1994
justification, or in regard to any restrictions that may not have been notified
4Restrictions
denote all unilateral quantitative restrictions, bilateral arrangements and
other measures having a similar
effect.
Page 90
under the provisions of this Article.
Actions with respect to such notifications may be pursued by any
Member under relevant GATT 1994
provisions or procedures in the appropriate WTO body.
5. The TMB shall circulate the
notifications made pursuant to this Article to all Members for their
information.
Article 4
1. Restrictions referred to in Article
2, and those applied under Article 6, shall be administered
by the exporting Members. Importing
Members shall not be obliged to accept shipments in excess
of the restrictions notified under
Article 2, or of restrictions applied pursuant to Article 6.
2. Members agree that the introduction
of changes, such as changes in practices, rules, procedures
and categorization of textile and
clothing products, including those changes relating to the Harmonized
System, in the implementation or
administration of those restrictions notified or applied under this
Agreement should not: upset the balance
of rights and obligations between the Members concerned
under this Agreement; adversely affect
the access available to a Member; impede the full utilization
of such access; or disrupt trade under
this Agreement.
3. If a product which constitutes only
part of a restriction is notified for integration pursuant to
the provisions of Article 2, Members
agree that any change in the level of that restriction shall not
upset the balance of rights and
obligations between the Members concerned under this Agreement.
4. When changes mentioned in paragraphs
2 and 3 are necessary, however, Members agree that
the Member initiating such changes
shall inform and, wherever possible, initiate consultations with
the affected Member or Members prior to
the implementation of such changes, with a view to reaching
a mutually acceptable solution regarding
appropriate and equitable adjustment. Members further agree
that where consultation prior to
implementation is not feasible, the Member initiating such changes
will, at the request of the affected
Member, consult, within 60 days if possible, with the Members
concerned with a view to reaching a
mutually satisfactory solution regarding appropriate and equitable
adjustments. If a mutually satisfactory
solution is not reached, any Member involved may refer the
matter to the TMB for recommendations
as provided in Article 8. Should the TSB not have had the
opportunity to review a dispute
concerning such changes introduced prior to the entry into force of
the WTO Agreement, it shall be reviewed
by the TMB in accordance with the rules and procedures
of the MFA applicable for such a
review.
Article 5
1. Members agree that circumvention by
transshipment, re-routing, false declaration concerning
country or place of origin, and
falsification of official documents, frustrates the implementation of this
Agreement to integrate the textiles and
clothing sector into GATT 1994. Accordingly, Members should
establish the necessary legal
provisions and/or administrative procedures to address and take action
against such circumvention. Members
further agree that, consistent with their domestic laws and
procedures, they will cooperate fully
to address problems arising from circumvention.
2. Should any Member believe that this
Agreement is being circumvented by transshipment, rerouting,
false declaration concerning country or
place of origin, or falsification of official documents,
and that no, or inadequate, measures
are being applied to address and/or to take action against such
circumvention, that Member should
consult with the Member or Members concerned with a view to
seeking a mutually satisfactory
solution. Such consultations should be held promptly, and within 30 days
Page 91
when possible. If a mutually
satisfactory solution is not reached, the matter may be referred by any
Member involved to the TMB for
recommendations.
3. Members agree to take necessary
action, consistent with their domestic laws and procedures,
to prevent, to investigate and, where
appropriate, to take legal and/or administrative action against
circumvention practices within their
territory. Members agree to cooperate fully, consistent with their
domestic laws and procedures, in
instances of circumvention or alleged circumvention of this Agreement,
to establish the relevant facts in the
places of import, export and, where applicable, transshipment.
It is agreed that such cooperation,
consistent with domestic laws and procedures, will include:
investigation of circumvention
practices which increase restrained exports to the Member maintaining
such restraints; exchange of documents,
correspondence, reports and other relevant information to the
extent available; and facilitation of
plant visits and contacts, upon request and on a case-by-case basis.
Members should endeavour to clarify the
circumstances of any such instances of circumvention or alleged
circumvention, including the respective
roles of the exporters or importers involved.
4. Where, as a result of investigation,
there is sufficient evidence that circumvention has occurred
(e.g. where evidence is available
concerning the country or place of true origin, and the circumstances
of such circumvention), Members agree
that appropriate action, to the extent necessary to address the
problem, should be taken. Such action
may include the denial of entry of goods or, where goods have
entered, having due regard to the
actual circumstances and the involvement of the country or place
of true origin, the adjustment of
charges to restraint levels to reflect the true country or place of origin.
Also, where there is evidence of the
involvement of the territories of the Members through which the
goods have been transshipped, such
action may include the introduction of restraints with respect to
such Members. Any such actions,
together with their timing and scope, may be taken after consultations
held with a view to arriving at a
mutually satisfactory solution between the concerned Members and
shall be notified to the TMB with full
justification. The Members concerned may agree on other remedies
in consultation. Any such agreement
shall also be notified to the TMB, and the TMB may make such
recommendations to the Members
concerned as it deems appropriate. If a mutually satisfactory solution
is not reached, any Member concerned
may refer the matter to the TMB for prompt review and
recommendations.
5. Members note that some cases of
circumvention may involve shipments transiting through
countries or places with no changes or
alterations made to the goods contained in such shipments in
the places of transit. They note that
it may not be generally practicable for such places of transit to
exercise control over such shipments.
6. Members agree that false declaration
concerning fibre content, quantities, description or
classification of merchandise also
frustrates the objective of this Agreement. Where there is evidence
that any such false declaration has
been made for purposes of circumvention, Members agree that
appropriate measures, consistent with
domestic laws and procedures, should be taken against the exporters
or importers involved. Should any
Member believe that this Agreement is being circumvented by such
false declaration and that no, or
inadequate, administrative measures are being applied to address and/or
to take action against such
circumvention, that Member should consult promptly with the Member
involved with a view to seeking a
mutually satisfactory solution. If such a solution is not reached,
the matter may be referred by any
Member involved to the TMB for recommendations. This provision
is not intended to prevent Members from
making technical adjustments when inadvertent errors in
declarations have been made.
Page 92
Article 6
1. Members recognize that during the
transition period it may be necessary to apply a specific
transitional safeguard mechanism
(referred to in this Agreement as "transitional safeguard"). The
transitional safeguard may be applied
by any Member to products covered by the Annex, except those
integrated into GATT 1994 under the
provisions of Article 2. Members not maintaining restrictions
falling under Article 2 shall notify
the TMB within 60 days following the date of entry into force of
the WTO Agreement, as to whether or not
they wish to retain the right to use the provisions of this
Article. Members which have not
accepted the Protocols extending the MFA since 1986 shall make
such notification within 6 months
following the entry into force of the WTO Agreement. The transitional
safeguard should be applied as
sparingly as possible, consistently with the provisions of this Article
and the effective implementation of the
integration process under this Agreement.
2. Safeguard action may be taken under
this Article when, on the basis of a determination by a
Member5, it is demonstrated that a particular product is being imported into its
territory in such increased
quantities as to cause serious damage,
or actual threat thereof, to the domestic industry producing like
and/or directly competitive products.
Serious damage or actual threat thereof must demonstrably be
caused by such increased quantities in
total imports of that product and not by such other factors as
technological changes or changes in
consumer preference.
3. In making a determination of serious
damage, or actual threat thereof, as referred to in
paragraph 2, the Member shall examine
the effect of those imports on the state of the particular industry,
as reflected in changes in such
relevant economic variables as output, productivity, utilization of capacity,
inventories, market share, exports,
wages, employment, domestic prices, profits and investment; none
of which, either alone or combined with
other factors, can necessarily give decisive guidance.
4. Any measure invoked pursuant to the
provisions of this Article shall be applied on a Member-by-
Member basis. The Member or Members to
whom serious damage, or actual threat thereof, referred
to in paragraphs 2 and 3, is
attributed, shall be determined on the basis of a sharp and substantial
increase
in imports, actual or imminent6, from such a Member or Members individually, and on the
basis of
the level of imports as compared with
imports from other sources, market share, and import and domestic
prices at a comparable stage of
commercial transaction; none of these factors, either alone or combined
with other factors, can necessarily
give decisive guidance. Such safeguard measure shall not be applied
to the exports of any Member whose
exports of the particular product are already under restraint under
this Agreement.
5. The period of validity of a
determination of serious damage or actual threat thereof for the purpose
of invoking safeguard action shall not
exceed 90 days from the date of initial notification as set forth
in paragraph 7.
6. In the application of the
transitional safeguard, particular account shall be taken of the interests
of exporting Members as set out below:
5A
customs union may apply a safeguard measure as a single unit or on behalf of a
member State. When a customs union
applies a safeguard measure as a single
unit, all the requirements for the determination of serious damage or actual
threat
thereof under this Agreement shall be
based on the conditions existing in the customs union as a whole. When a
safeguard
measure is applied on behalf of a
member State, all the requirements for the determination of serious damage, or
actual threat
thereof, shall be based on the conditions
existing in that member State and the measure shall be limited to that member
State.
6Such
an imminent increase shall be a measurable one and shall not be determined to
exist on the basis of allegation,
conjecture or mere possibility arising,
for example, from the existence of production capacity in the exporting
Members.
Page 93
(a) least-developed country Members
shall be accorded treatment significantly more
favourable than that provided to the
other groups of Members referred to in this
paragraph, preferably in all its
elements but, at least, on overall terms;
(b) Members whose total volume of
textile and clothing exports is small in comparison
with the total volume of exports of
other Members and who account for only a small
percentage of total imports of that
product into the importing Member shall be accorded
differential and more favourable
treatment in the fixing of the economic terms provided
in paragraphs 8, 13 and 14. For those
suppliers, due account will be taken, pursuant
to paragraphs 2 and 3 of Article 1, of
the future possibilities for the development of
their trade and the need to allow
commercial quantities of imports from them;
(c) with respect to wool products from
wool-producing developing country Members whose
economy and textiles and clothing trade
are dependent on the wool sector, whose total
textile and clothing exports consist
almost exclusively of wool products, and whose
volume of textiles and clothing trade
is comparatively small in the markets of the
importing Members, special
consideration shall be given to the export needs of such
Members when considering quota levels,
growth rates and flexibility;
(d) more favourable treatment shall be
accorded to re-imports by a Member of textile and
clothing products which that Member has
exported to another Member for processing
and subsequent reimportation, as
defined by the laws and practices of the importing
Member, and subject to satisfactory
control and certification procedures, when these
products are imported from a Member for
which this type of trade represents a significant
proportion of its total exports of
textiles and clothing.
7. The Member proposing to take
safeguard action shall seek consultations with the Member or
Members which would be affected by such
action. The request for consultations shall be accompanied
by specific and relevant factual
information, as up-to-date as possible, particularly in regard to: (a)
the
factors, referred to in paragraph 3, on
which the Member invoking the action has based its determination
of the existence of serious damage or
actual threat thereof; and (b) the factors, referred to in paragraph
4, on the basis of which it proposes to
invoke the safeguard action with respect to the Member or
Members concerned. In respect of
requests made under this paragraph, the information shall be related,
as closely as possible, to identifiable
segments of production and to the reference period set out in
paragraph 8. The Member invoking the
action shall also indicate the specific level at which imports
of the product in question from the
Member or Members concerned are proposed to be restrained;
such level shall not be lower than the
level referred to in paragraph 8. The Member seeking consultations
shall, at the same time, communicate to
the Chairman of the TMB the request for consultations, including
all the relevant factual data outlined
in paragraphs 3 and 4, together with the proposed restraint level.
The Chairman shall inform the members
of the TMB of the request for consultations, indicating the
requesting Member, the product in
question and the Member having received the request. The Member
or Members concerned shall respond to
this request promptly and the consultations shall be held without
delay and normally be completed within
60 days of the date on which the request was received.
8. If, in the consultations, there is
mutual understanding that the situation calls for restraint on
the exports of the particular product
from the Member or Members concerned, the level of such restraint
shall be fixed at a level not lower
than the actual level of exports or imports from the Member concerned
during the 12-month period terminating
two months preceding the month in which the request for
consultation was made.
9. Details of the agreed restraint
measure shall be communicated to the TMB within 60 days from
the date of conclusion of the
agreement. The TMB shall determine whether the agreement is justified
in accordance with the provisions of
this Article. In order to make its determination, the TMB shall
Page 94
have available to it the factual data
provided to the Chairman of the TMB, referred to in paragraph 7,
as well as any other relevant
information provided by the Members concerned. The TMB may make
such recommendations as it deems
appropriate to the Members concerned.
10. If, however, after the expiry of
the period of 60 days from the date on which the request for
consultations was received, there has
been no agreement between the Members, the Member which
proposed to take safeguard action may
apply the restraint by date of import or date of export, in
accordance with the provisions of this
Article, within 30 days following the 60-day period for
consultations, and at the same time
refer the matter to the TMB. It shall be open to either Member
to refer the matter to the TMB before
the expiry of the period of 60 days. In either case, the TMB
shall promptly conduct an examination
of the matter, including the determination of serious damage,
or actual threat thereof, and its
causes, and make appropriate recommendations to the Members concerned
within 30 days. In order to conduct
such examination, the TMB shall have available to it the factual
data provided to the Chairman of the
TMB, referred to in paragraph 7, as well as any other relevant
information provided by the Members
concerned.
11. In highly unusual and critical
circumstances, where delay would cause damage which would
be difficult to repair, action under
paragraph 10 may be taken provisionally on the condition that the
request for consultations and notification
to the TMB shall be effected within no more than five working
days after taking the action. In the
case that consultations do not produce agreement, the TMB shall
be notified at the conclusion of
consultations, but in any case no later than 60 days from the date of
the implementation of the action. The
TMB shall promptly conduct an examination of the matter, and
make appropriate recommendations to the
Members concerned within 30 days. In the case that
consultations do produce agreement,
Members shall notify the TMB upon conclusion but, in any case,
no later than 90 days from the date of
the implementation of the action. The TMB may make such
recommendations as it deems appropriate
to the Members concerned.
12. A Member may maintain measures
invoked pursuant to the provisions of this Article: (a) for
up to three years without extension, or
(b) until the product is integrated into GATT 1994, whichever
comes first.
13. Should the restraint measure remain
in force for a period exceeding one year, the level for
subsequent years shall be the level
specified for the first year increased by a growth rate of not less
than 6 per cent per annum, unless
otherwise justified to the TMB. The restraint level for the product
concerned may be exceeded in either
year of any two subsequent years by carry forward and/or carryover
of 10 per cent of which carry forward
shall not represent more than 5 per cent. No quantitative limits
shall be placed on the combined use of
carryover, carry forward and the provision of paragraph 14.
14. When more than one product from
another Member is placed under restraint under this Article
by a Member, the level of restraint
agreed, pursuant to the provisions of this Article, for each of these
products may be exceeded by 7 per cent,
provided that the total exports subject to restraint do not exceed
the total of the levels for all
products so restrained under this Article, on the basis of agreed common
units. Where the periods of application
of restraints of these products do not coincide with each other,
this provision shall be applied to any
overlapping period on a pro rata basis.
15. If a safeguard action is applied
under this Article to a product for which a restraint was previously
in place under the MFA during the
12-month period prior to the entry into force of the WTO Agreement,
or pursuant to the provisions of
Article 2 or 6, the level of the new restraint shall be the level provided
for in paragraph 8 unless the new
restraint comes into force within one year of:
(a) the date of notification referred
to in paragraph 15 of Article 2 for the elimination of
the previous restraint; or
Page 95
(b) the date of removal of the previous
restraint put in place pursuant to the provisions
of this Article or of the MFA
in which case the level shall not be
less than the higher of (i) the level of restraint for the last 12-month
period during which the product was
under restraint, or (ii) the level of restraint provided for in
paragraph 8.
16. When a Member which is not
maintaining a restraint under Article 2 decides to apply a restraint
pursuant to the provisions of this
Article, it shall establish appropriate arrangements which: (a) take
full account of such factors as
established tariff classification and quantitative units based on normal
commercial practices in export and
import transactions, both as regards fibre composition and in terms
of competing for the same segment of
its domestic market, and (b) avoid over-categorization. The
request for consultations referred to
in paragraphs 7 or 11 shall include full information on such
arrangements.
Article 7
1. As part of the integration process
and with reference to the specific commitments undertaken
by the Members as a result of the
Uruguay Round, all Members shall take such actions as may be
necessary to abide by GATT 1994 rules
and disciplines so as to:
(a) achieve improved access to markets
for textile and clothing products through such
measures as tariff reductions and
bindings, reduction or elimination of non-tariff barriers,
and facilitation of customs,
administrative and licensing formalities;
(b) ensure the application of policies
relating to fair and equitable trading conditions as
regards textiles and clothing in such
areas as dumping and anti-dumping rules and
procedures, subsidies and countervailing
measures, and protection of intellectual property
rights; and
(c) avoid discrimination against
imports in the textiles and clothing sector when taking
measures for general trade policy
reasons.
Such actions shall be without prejudice
to the rights and obligations of Members under GATT 1994.
2. Members shall notify to the TMB the
actions referred to in paragraph 1 which have a bearing
on the implementation of this
Agreement. To the extent that these have been notified to other WTO
bodies, a summary, with reference to
the original notification, shall be sufficient to fulfil the requirements
under this paragraph. It shall be open
to any Member to make reverse notifications to the TMB.
3. Where any Member considers that
another Member has not taken the actions referred to in
paragraph 1, and that the balance of
rights and obligations under this Agreement has been upset, that
Member may bring the matter before the
relevant WTO bodies and inform the TMB. Any subsequent
findings or conclusions by the WTO bodies
concerned shall form a part of the TMB's comprehensive
report.
Page 96
Article 8
1. In order to supervise the
implementation of this Agreement, to examine all measures taken
under this Agreement and their
conformity therewith, and to take the actions specifically required of
it by this Agreement, the Textiles
Monitoring Body ("TMB") is hereby established. The TMB shall
consist of a Chairman and 10 members.
Its membership shall be balanced and broadly representative
of the Members and shall provide for rotation
of its members at appropriate intervals. The members
shall be appointed by Members
designated by the Council for Trade in Goods to serve on the TMB,
discharging their function on an ad
personam basis.
2. The TMB shall develop its own
working procedures. It is understood, however, that consensus
within the TMB does not require the
assent or concurrence of members appointed by Members involved
in an unresolved issue under review by
the TMB.
3. The TMB shall be considered as a
standing body and shall meet as necessary to carry out the
functions required of it under this
Agreement. It shall rely on notifications and information supplied
by the Members under the relevant
Articles of this Agreement, supplemented by any additional
information or necessary details they
may submit or it may decide to seek from them. It may also
rely on notifications to and reports
from other WTO bodies and from such other sources as it may deem
appropriate.
4. Members shall afford to each other
adequate opportunity for consultations with respect to any
matters affecting the operation of this
Agreement.
5. In the absence of any mutually
agreed solution in the bilateral consultations provided for in
this Agreement, the TMB shall, at the
request of either Member, and following a thorough and prompt
consideration of the matter, make
recommendations to the Members concerned.
6. At the request of any Member, the
TMB shall review promptly any particular matter which
that Member considers to be detrimental
to its interests under this Agreement and where consultations
between it and the Member or Members
concerned have failed to produce a mutually satisfactory solution.
On such matters, the TMB may make such
observations as it deems appropriate to the Members
concerned and for the purposes of the
review provided for in paragraph 11.
7. Before formulating its
recommendations or observations, the TMB shall invite participation
of such Members as may be directly
affected by the matter in question.
8. Whenever the TMB is called upon to
make recommendations or findings, it shall do so, preferably
within a period of 30 days, unless a
different time period is specified in this Agreement. All such
recommendations or findings shall be
communicated to the Members directly concerned. All such
recommendations or findings shall also
be communicated to the Council for Trade in Goods for its
information.
9. The Members shall endeavour to
accept in full the recommendations of the TMB, which shall
exercise proper surveillance of the
implementation of such recommendations.
10. If a Member considers itself unable
to conform with the recommendations of the TMB, it shall
provide the TMB with the reasons
therefor not later than one month after receipt of such
recommendations. Following thorough
consideration of the reasons given, the TMB shall issue any
further recommendations it considers
appropriate forthwith. If, after such further recommendations,
the matter remains unresolved, either
Member may bring the matter before the Dispute Settlement Body
and invoke paragraph 2 of Article XXIII
of GATT 1994 and the relevant provisions of the Dispute
Settlement Understanding.
Page 97
11. In order to oversee the
implementation of this Agreement, the Council for Trade in Goods shall
conduct a major review before the end
of each stage of the integration process. To assist in this review,
the TMB shall, at least five months
before the end of each stage, transmit to the Council for Trade
in Goods a comprehensive report on the
implementation of this Agreement during the stage under review,
in particular in matters with regard to
the integration process, the application of the transitional safeguard
mechanism, and relating to the
application of GATT 1994 rules and disciplines as defined in
Articles 2, 3, 6 and 7 respectively.
The TMB's comprehensive report may include any recommendation
as deemed appropriate by the TMB to the
Council for Trade in Goods.
12. In the light of its review the
Council for Trade in Goods shall by consensus take such decisions
as it deems appropriate to ensure that
the balance of rights and obligations embodied in this Agreement
is not being impaired. For the
resolution of any disputes that may arise with respect to matters referred
to in Article 7, the Dispute Settlement
Body may authorize, without prejudice to the final date set out
under Article 9, an adjustment to
paragraph 14 of Article 2, for the stage subsequent to the review,
with respect to any Member found not to
be complying with its obligations under this Agreement.
Article 9
This Agreement and all restrictions
thereunder shall stand terminated on the first day of the
121st month that the WTO Agreement is
in effect, on which date the textiles and clothing sector shall
be fully integrated into GATT 1994.
There shall be no extension of this Agreement.

ANNEX
LIST OF PRODUCTS COVERED BY THIS
AGREEMENT
1. This Annex lists textile and
clothing products defined by Harmonized Commodity Description
and Coding System (HS) codes at the
six-digit level.
2. Actions under the safeguard
provisions in Article 6 will be taken with respect to particular textile
and clothing products and not on the
basis of the HS lines per se.
3. Actions under the safeguard
provisions in Article 6 of this Agreement shall not apply to:
(a) developing country Members' exports
of handloom fabrics of the cottage industry, or
hand-made cottage industry products
made of such handloom fabrics, or traditional
folklore handicraft textile and
clothing products, provided that such products are properly
certified under arrangements established
between the Members concerned;
(b) historically traded textile
products which were internationally traded in commercially
significant quantities prior to 1982,
such as bags, sacks, carpetbacking, cordage, luggage,
mats, mattings and carpets typically made
from fibres such as jute, coir, sisal, abaca,
maguey and henequen;
(c) products made of pure silk.
For such products, the provisions of
Article XIX of GATT 1994, as interpreted by the Agreement on
Safeguards, shall be applicable.
