3. GATT Ministerial
:
Meeting
November 1982
To maintain Hong
Kong's rights
under GATT.
Since the last report, a fourth
round of consultation was held on
29 July. ExCo advised on 24 August
that Hong Kong should proceed with
reference of the dispute to the GATT
unless France made an improved offer
that was acceptable. As the French
proposals at the last round of
consultations on 29 September fell
short of Hong Kong's expectation,
Hong Kong has requested the GATT
Council to set up a panel to give
a ruling on the matter. The
request was accepted by the GATT, and the panel is in the process of
being established.
Hong Kong has participated through
the Geneva Office in the Preparatory
Committee for the Ministerial
meeting.
