The World Trade Organization (WTO) has released documents pertaining to the trade policy review of Norway. This process involves a detailed examination and evaluation of member countries' trade policies at regular intervals, as mandated by WTO agreements.
The available documents include a "Secretariat report," which is an independent analysis conducted by the WTO Secretariat. Additionally, there is a "Government report," which provides a policy statement from the Norwegian government under review.
Both reports are discussed in the Trade Policy Review Body (TPRB), where all WTO members participate. The discussions aim to evaluate significant developments that may affect the global trading system.
The chairperson's concluding remarks will be available on the day of the second meeting, providing further insights into the discussions held during this review process.
Trade Policy Reviews ensure transparency and accountability among WTO members by monitoring their trade-related policies. The frequency of these reviews varies depending on each country's size within the global economy.
