We would like to ensure the safety and the health of our people, and even plant and animal life in the Philippines, and also our environment. But we would also like to have access to quality goods, to cheaper goods, and we would like our businesses and our service providers to be able to have access to other markets as well," underscored DTI-CPG Asst. Secretary Atty. Ann Claire Cabochan in her closing remarks. She added, "we cannot afford not to look out to the rest of the world, because we cannot supply everything for our own people."
The TBT Agreement aims to ensure that standards, technical regulations, and conformity assessment procedures are non-discriminatory and do not create unnecessary obstacles to trade. The WTO features transparency as a fundamental principle of the multilateral trading system and under the Agreement, Members are required to notify technical regulations and conformity assessment procedures to provide opportunity to other Members to submit their comments and seek clarifications on pending technical regulations.
This year’s WTO-TBT National Workshop was the third one conducted following the first two workshops held last 04-06 September 2017 and 27-29 November 2018 in Taguig and Cebu City, respectively.
The DTI-BPS serves as the Philippines’ National Enquiry Point (NEP) and National Notification Authority (NNA) under the TBT Agreement. As the NEP, the DTI-BPS is responsible for the dissemination of WTO-TBT notifications on draft technical regulations and conformity assessment procedures among various stakeholders in the country and facilitates submission of comments from various stakeholders. The Bureau publishes the WTO-TBT notifications weekly through the WTO-TBT Notifications Bulletin. As NNA, the BPS acts as the sole notifier to the WTO of the draft technical regulations and/or conformity assessment procedures by the governmental bodies in the Philippines.
