Committee on Subsidies
and Countervailing Measures
BACKGROUND AND TECHNICAL EXPLANATION
Note by the Secretariat
This paper is an update of G/SCM/29, the factual report on compliance with the annual
notification obligations under Article 25 of the Agreement.
The attached table shows, by notifying Member, the dates of submission1 of each notification
due (three new and full notifications and four updates) since the entry into force of the WTO
Agreements.  Nil notifications are identified as such.
Where a single notification covers more than one period, and thus carries multiple document
symbols, the date of submission appears in the table only once, and a range of symbols is used toindicate all of the periods covered by that notification.  These symbols are explained in a series of
notes at the end of the table.  The symbol “NS” indicates that no notification has been submitted by
the Member for the relevant period.  Only those Members that have made at least one subsidy
notification to date are included in the table.
The following Members have not made any subsidy notifications:  Albania (08.09.00),
Angola, Bangladesh, Barbados, Belize, Central African Republic, Chad, Congo, Croatia
(30.11.00), Democratic Republic of Congo, Dj ibouti, El Salvador, Estonia (13.11.99),
Georgia (14.06.00), Grenada (22.02.96), Guinea Bissau, Republic of Guinea, Guyana, Haiti,
Kenya, Kuwait, Kyrgyz Republic (20.12.98), Lesotho, Madagascar, Malawi, Maldives, Malta,
Mauritania, Moldova (27.07.01), Mongolia (29.01.97), Mozambique, Myanmar, Niger, Papua
New Guinea (09.06.96), Rwanda, St. Lucia, St. Vincent and Grenadines, Sierra Leone, Solomon
Islands (26.07.96), Tanzania, Togo .  For those Members that are not original WTO Members, the
dates of entry into force are indicated in parentheses.
Analysis
New and full notifications
• Compliance with the triennial obligation to provide a new and full subsidy notification remains
low, in terms of both the number of Members submitting notifications and the timeliness of thosenotifications.
• For 1995, only 72 (counting the EC as a single Member) have submitted a new and full
notification.
                                                     
1 In the few cases where the date of submission does not appear in the notification, the date of
circulation is shown instead.G/SCM/37
Page 2
• Of these 73 notifications, 60 were submitted after the 30 June 1995 due date.2  The tardiness of
these notifications ranged from two weeks to 6 y ears, (with an average tardiness of 14 months).
• For the 1998 new and full notifications, the submission rate was considerably lower, with just 51
notifications submitted.
• 48 of these notifications were submitted after the 30 June 1998 due date.3  The tardiness of these
notifications ranged from a few days to 6 years, (with an average tardiness of 8 months).
• For the 2001 new and full notifications, the submission rate was even lower than in previous
years, as only 22 of 142 Members (counting the EC as a single Member) have submitted new and
full notifications to date.
.
• Of these 22 notifications, 3 were in combined notifications covering more than one period.
• One improvement was that of the 22 notifying Members, four (including one newly-acceded
Member) were notifying for the first time.
• Of the 22 notifications, eight were submitted after the 29 of June due date, with tardiness ranging
from a few days to 3½ months.
Updating notifications
• Compliance for updating notifications has been considerably lower than for the new and full
notifications.  The number of Members submitting such notifications has consistently been less
than the number submitting new and full notifications, and has declined significantly in each
update period.  The vast majority of such notifications have been submitted after the due date.
• In addition, updating notifications very frequently are in combined notifications covering more
than one period.  Thus, in practice these notifications do not provide up-to-date information  on anannual basis, regarding changes since the most recent new and full notification, as envisioned in
the Agreement.
• Only 52 updating notifications for 1996 were received, only two of which were submitted by
30 June 1996.
4
• Only 44 updating notifications for 1997 were received, only five of which were submitted by
30 June 1997.
• Only 43 updating notifications for 1999 have been received to date, only eight of which were
submitted by 30 June 1999.5
                                                     
2 Two Members submitting 1995 new and full notifications became Members after 30 June 1995.
These notifications  has not been included  in the calculation of average tardiness.
3 Two Members submitting 1998 new and full notifications became Members after 30 June 1998.
These notification have not been included  in the calculation of average tardiness.
4 One Member submitting a 1996 updating notification became a Member after 30 June 1996.
5 One member submitting a 1999 updating notification became a Member after 30 June 1999.G/SCM/37
Page 3
• Only 35 updating notifications for 2000 have been received to date, only seven of which were
submitted by 30 June 2000.
• Thus, only 174 of the nearly 500 updating notifications6 due through 30 June 2000 have been
submitted, i.e., only about a one-third compliance rate.  Of these, only 22 were submitted by therespective 30 June deadlines.
• Of the 174 updating notifications, 93 were in combined notifications covering more than one
period, and were submitted much less frequently than annually.
                                                     
6 Based on an assumed constant WTO membership of 123 (counting the EC as a single Member) since
30 June 1996, when the first updating notification was due.G/SCM/37
