More DescriptionThis double DVD contains a complete set of all Trade Policy Review publications from 1989 to 2009. Trade Policy Reviews enable WTO members to examine collectively the trade policies and practices of individual members in all areas covered by the WTO agreements. Reviews are carried out by the Trade Policy Review Body (TPRB), which consists of the entire WTO membership. The Trade Policy Review Mechanism aims to encourage all WTO members to adhere to the WTO's rules, disciplines and commitments, and thus to contribute to the smoother functioning of the multilateral trading system. By the end of 2009, 305 Trade Policy Reviews had been conducted, covering 136 of the 153 WTO members. Japan, the European Union and the United States had been reviewed nine times; Canada eight times; nine members (Australia; Brazil; Hong Kong, China; Indonesia; Republic of Korea; Norway; Singapore; Switzerland and Thailand) five times; eight members (Chile, India, Malaysia, Mexico, Morocco, New Zealand, South Africa and Turkey) four times; 28 members three times; and 38 members twice.
