It reviews the phase 1 discussions and the proposals received on export subsidies and competition; export restrictions and taxes; market access; domestic support, and the treatment of developing countries. It also summarises the phase 2 discussions on: tariff quota administration; tariffs; amber box domestic support; export subsidies and export credits; state trading enterprises; export taxes and restrictions; food security and food safety; rural development; geographical indicators; green and blue box domestic supports; special agricultural safeguards; environment; trade preferences; food aid; consumer information and labelling; the development box and single commodity dependent and small island states and other issues.
