INTRODUCTION

Complaint of Thailand

1.1 On 24 April 2006, Thailand requested consultations with the United States pursuant to Article 4 of the Understanding on Rules and Procedures Governing the Settlement of Disputes (the “DSU”), Article XXII:1 of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade 1994 (the “GATT 1994”) and Articles 17.2, 17.3 and 17.4 of the Agreement on Implementation of Article VI of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade 1994 (the “Anti-Dumping Agreement”) with respect to certain issues relating to measures imposed by the United States on imports of certain frozen warmwater shrimp from Thailand. Thailand and the United States held consultations, but failed to resolve the dispute.

1.3 At its meeting on 26 October 2006, the Dispute Settlement Body (DSB) established a Panel pursuant to the request of Thailand in document WT/DS343/7, in accordance with Article 6 of the DSU.

“To examine, in the light of the relevant provisions of the covered agreements cited by Thailand in document WT/DS343/7, the matter referred to the DSB by Thailand in that document, and to make such findings as will assist the DSB in making the recommendations or in giving the rulings provided for in those agreements.”
