Abstract

The subject of the interaction between trade and competition policy was added to the work programme of WTO as a result of decisions taken at the 1996 Singapore Ministerial Conference. The Working Group which has been established is expected to study and analyse “issues raised by Members relating the interaction between trade and competition policy, including anti-competitive practices,” and to “identify areas that merit further consideration in the WTO framework.” In carrying out analytical work, the Group is expected to take into account the provisions of the Agreement on Trade-Related Investment Measures, provisions in WTO law on investment and competition policy, and discussions in the Working Group on Trade and Investment.
