The attached five graphs were presented at the Special Joint meeting of the TBT and SPS
Committees on Procedures for Information Exchange, 6-7 November 1995. The graphs and examples
are intended to help clarify the distinction between SPS and TBT measures in order to facilitate a better
understanding of the different coverage of the two Agreements and, subsequently, to facilitate the correct
notification of such measures.
