A Handbook on Reading WTO Schedules
By
Peter Gallagher
Description
This
is a detailed guide on how to read WTO Schedules of Commitments for
Goods and Services. The Schedules are part of the Legal Texts of the
WTO Uruguay Round Agreements. They comprise about 27,000 pages of
specific commitments by the nearly 150 Members of the WTO on market
access conditions for their markets. Understanding how to interpret
the Schedules is essential for anyone wishing to glean information
for academic, official, or business purposes. Commissioned and
reviewed by the WTO Secretariat, this is a unique guide to
understanding the Schedules.
