Description

Summary
"This volume gives a detailed account of the parameters for technical standards and measure seeking to protect health and environment. Included are commentaries on those provisions of GATT 1994 which are equally relevant in this context, namely Articles III, IX and XX. The article by article commentaries draw from a considerable body of case law and the work by the TBT and SPS Committee. Attention is given to substantive requirements as well as the necessary standard setting procedures. Apart from a thorough analysis of the relevant and most recent jurisprudence the commentary seeks to give answers to newly emerging problems, as for example genetically modified (GMO) foods. It is a tool for practitioners and academics working in this field of WTO law."--BOOK JACKET.
