SINGAPORE ISSUES

 

COMPETITION POLICY

INVESTMENT

TRADE FACILITATION

TRANSPARENCY IN GOVERNMENT PROCUREMENT

 

Note

In July 2004 the General Council of the WTO decided that the Interaction between Trade and Competition Policy (in addition to Investment, and Transparency in Government Procurement) would no longer form part of the Work Programme set out in the Doha Ministerial Declaration and therefore that no work towards negotiations on any of these issues will take place within the WTO during the Doha Round.
