ACWL finalises paper on Giving Legal Effect to the Results of the Doha Round
In response to requests by its developing country Members and least developed countries, the ACWL has finalised a background paper that analyses, compares and assesses the main methods available to give legal effect to the results of the Doha Round.
A draft of the paper was discussed at a seminar held at the ACWL on 8 June 2006. 54 delegates and lawyers attended the seminar and engaged in the discussions, including 31 from developing and least developed countries and 13 from developed countries, the WTO Secretariat and the ICTSD. We would like to thank all participants for their comments, including Professor John H. Jackson who presented extensive comments at the seminar, and Professor William J. Davey for written comments. A paper copy has been sent to all participants.
The finalised paper is also available electronically by clicking on the weblink below:
