Last week, India appealed a WTO dispute panel ruling that found New Delhi’simport restriction on US Poultry, Chicken and Eggs. India is seeking to appeal on the ground that the Panel failed to make objective assessment of the arguments made and evidence presented before it. Further, India challenges the Panel finding that there exists a less restrictive alternative to meet India’s objective of preventing spread of avian flu and the finding of unjustifiable and arbitrary discrimination between members with identical conditions. The AB has 90 days to issue its report, its decision will not interfere with the factual findings made in the Panel report. The gLAWcal Team LIBEAC project Thursday, 05 February 2014 (Source:ICTSD)
