Introduction

1. At the first meeting of the Negotiating Group on Tropical Products held on 26 February 1987, there was a general agreement that the work in the initial phase should start on the basis of the seven product groups selected for the purpose of the consultations on tropical products held in the Committee on Trade and Development in 1982-84, in the understanding that this would not constitute a definition of tropical products nor an exhaustive listing and that other products might be included as negotiations proceed. As a first step in compiling background material for negotiations, the Group agreed that the secretariat should be invited to update and revise the background documentation prepared for the 1982-84 consultations including, as appropriate, data on the new Harmonized System of tariffs, so as to provide the Group with a summary of current trade flows and the tariff and non-tariff measures relating to the seven individual product groups covered by the consultations.

2. This document provides background material for negotiations with respect to one of the seven product groups covered by the 1982-84 consultations - natural rubber and tropical wood. This document covers the eleven developed country markets as in the background documentation prepared for the consultations. As far as this product group is concerned, any additional information that the Group might wish to have included as background material will be circulated as addenda to this document.

3. The first two sections of this document cover natural rubber and tropical wood, respectively. Section III documents the activities of international organizations relevant to these two product sub-groups. Each of the first two sections includes product information and, under the heading "the commercial policy situation", tables which show tariff rates (MFN and GSP) according to the new Harmonized System classifications, an overview of the tariff situation and information on non-tariff measures. Each of the first two sections also provides data on trade flows and consumption.

4. With respect to the eleven markets referred to above, MTN.GNG/NG6/W/15/Add.l provides tariff and trade flow data extracted from the 1984 Tariff Study files. These data are presented according to tariff classifications used before the adoption of the Harmonized System. With respect to pre-HS tariff items, the secretariat has added corresponding new HS-based tariff item numbers and tariff rates on a provisional basis. It is expected that these data will help identify broadly, if not precisely, major suppliers and the amount of trade involved with respect to the new HS-based tariff items.

A number of participants in the Uruguay Round, including developed countries, have adopted new tariff schedules based on the Harmonized System. The United States and Canada have adopted an internationally standardized tariff nomenclature for the first time. However, it may be noted that import data according to HS-based tariff items will not be available before 1989 or 1990. Thus, there is no other choice but to use the latest available import data for 1984, which are presented according to pre-HS tariff classifications, i.e. CCCN. TSUS or CTS.

MTN.GNG/NG6/W/15/Rev.1 Page 3

SECTION I; Natural rubber and rubber products

A. Product information

5. Virtually all of the commercially important types of natural rubber (hevea, balata, gutta percha and chicle) are grown in the tropical zone. While there are certain products which are most frequently made from either natural or synthetic rubbers, many rubber items are made from several types of rubber combined, which may have been co-polymerized, compounded, laminated or otherwise associated with one another and with other fillers, extenders, colouring agents and/or re-enforcement materials such as textile or metal-threads or fabrics.

6. Rubber and most rubber products fall within CCCN/HS Chapter 40. Natural and synthetic rubbers are distinguishable only at the level of raw material. At the level of semi-manufactured and finished rubber products, no distinction is made between those of natural and synthetic rubbers under such international nomenclatures as CCCN and HS. However, in certain national tariff schedules (e.g. those of the United States and Japan) certain semi-manufactured natural rubber products sometimes enjoy lower tariff treatment than for corresponding synthetic rubber products.

B. The commercial policy situation

(a) Tariffs

7. Tables 1 to 5 show the tariff rates (MFN and GSP) of eleven developed country markets with respect to natural rubber, unvulcanized rubber products, vulcanized rubber products, rubber tyres and tubes, and other rubber articles. The MFN and GSP rates indicated in these tables are new rates based on the Harmonized System. Tariff data in the tables are presented in a way to show the tariff escalation as clearly as possible. Tariff rates other than MFN and GSP rates are given in MTN.GNG/NG6/W/15/Add.l.

An overview of the tariff situation

8. In developed countries natural rubber is generally imported free of duty as an essential raw material. With regard to rubber products, MFN duties of industrialized countries have been significantly reduced as a result of past multilateral trade negotiations. Practically all products in CCCN Chapter 40 (with the exception of rubber tyres and tubes in certain cases) enjoyed the 50 per cent tariff reduction in the 1964-67 Kennedy Round and the tariff reduction according to a harmonization formula in the 1973-79 Tokyo Round. Further, the GSP introduced by developed countries in the 1970s has covered industrial products extensively, including most rubber products and has eliminated or reduced many duties applicable to developing countries in the sector.

Chapter 40 of the CCCN does not cover all "rubber articles". Rubber toys, bathing caps, rubber footwear and (hardened rubber) buttons, pipestems, etc., are, for instance, classifiable in other CCCN/HS Chapters.

Explanatory Notes to Tables

Symbols used in the tables

* = MFN tariff reductions and GSP improvements after the 1982-84 consultations on tropical products (to the extent that information is available to the secretariat)

MFN rate (under the HS-based tariff - effective 1 January 1988, except the United States having delayed its adoption)

B = MFN rate fully bound P = MFN rate partially bound U = MFN rate not bound A = MFN rate applied actually on a temporary basis or otherwise

Examples: (a) 0%B,) Two bound rates at zero and 10 per cent apply on 10ZB ) the HS item

(b) 10%B ) MFN rate is bound at 10 per cent, but a rate of 8%A ) 8 per cent is actually applied on the HS item.

GSP rate (under the HS-based tariff - effective 1 January 1988, except the United States having delayed its adoption)

Blank space means that as the MFN rate is already zero, GSP is irrelevant. no GSP treatment for MFN dutiable item

(...%) = GSP rate whose application is subject to quantitative limitations (i.e. ceiling or quota)

Notes: 1. Information on country limitations for the GSP application is given in footnotes.

2. Tariff rates other than MFN and GSP rates are available in MTN.GNG/NG6/W/15/Add.l.

3. "No GSP treatment" includes the cases where the GSP rate, though it remains on domestic legislation or regulation, no longer offers a preferential margin as a result of the reduction of the relevant MFN rate to or below the GSP rate.

4. Unless otherwise qualified, a single GSP rate indicated against two or more MFN rates means that all indicated dutiable MFN rates have been covered by the GSP rate indicated.

9. Nordic countries (Finland, Norway and Sweden) and Switzerland provide developing countries MFN duty-free treatment or unlimited GSP duty-free treatment for all items in Chapter 40 with the exception that Finland excludes "4011 rubber tyres" from GSP and does not apply GSP on certain rubber products from Hong Kong. The United States also grants such treatment with some exceptions (HS Nos. 4008.21, 4011.50, 4013.20, ex 4015.19, 4015.90 and 4016.95).

10. Canada grants natural rubber other than sheets and strip MFN duty-free treatment. Sheets and strip and most other rubber products are subject to MFN duties of 10.2-11.7 per cent or GSP rates of 6.5-7.5 per cent. Rubber gloves and apparel are subject to MFN duties of 22.5-25 per cent or GSP rates of 15-16.5 per cent.

11. Japan has granted all items in Chapter 40 MFN or GSP duty-free treatment. While its GSP treatment is subject to monthly-controlled ceiling limitations and maximum country amounts, these limitations are flexibly administered. In other words, imports under GSP are allowed to continue after quantitative limitations have been reached unless a particular decision is taken not to apply GSP any longer. With respect to tyres and tubes for other than motor cars, however, the maximum country amount is not flexibly administered.

12. The EEC has also granted developing countries MFN or GSP duty-free treatment. In 1988, all items in Chapter 40 except rubber tyres and tubes are granted unlimited GSP duty-free treatment as non-sensitive items. With respect to rubber tyres and tubes, GSP is not applicable to Romania and GSP imports from other GSP beneficiaries are subject to country-by-country ceiling limitations (see Table 6). The Republic of Korea is no longer a beneficiary of the EEC GSP scheme since 1988.

13. In Austria rubber products are generally dutiable at 5-20 per cent. Austrian GSP rates on all rubber products are equal to one-half of corresponding MFN rates.

14. In Australia presently applied MFN rates on rubber products are at the level of 15-25 per cent (mostly unbound) except for rubber garments for which the MFN rate is 60 per cent. GSP rates of Australia are uniformly 5 percentage points less than corresponding MFN rates.

15. In New Zealand MFN duties of 20-55 per cent (mostly unbound) apply on most rubber products. Its GSP covers all rubber products except certain rubber tyres and tubes. Its GSP rates are mostly 10-20 per cent less than corresponding MFN rates.

The expression "provide developing countries duty-free treatment" is used in this document to provide a succinct picture of the tariff situation affecting exports from developing countries. Details of such treatment, i.e., whether "duty-free" is on an MFN basis, bound or unbound, or under the GSP, are shown in tables.

(b) Non-Tariff Measures

16. Norway restricts imports of new pneumatic tyres for passenger cars from Japan and the Republic of Korea. New Zealand maintains import licensing controls on rubber products in line with their industry development plans. Tyres and tubes will be transferred to "licensing on demand" as of 31 March 1989 and other rubber products will be similarly liberalized as of 1 January 1990. Japan restricts imports of rubber adhesives containing more than 5 per cent of benzine by volume of solvent (HS ex 4005, 4016) in accordance with the requirements of the Industrial Safety and Health Law.

17. Amongst EEC members, Portugal maintains quantitative import restrictions on such rubber products as rubber plates and sheets, rubber tubing, rubber apparel and miscellaneous rubber articles. However, those restrictions will be removed on 31 December 1992 as provided for in the accession agreement of the country with the EEC. Five EEC member countries maintain restrictions on rubber tyres and tubes. Spain restricts imports of rubber tyres and inner tubes. Greece restricts imports of tyre cases, tyre flaps and tubeless tyres and Ireland restricts imports of used tyre cases and tubeless tyres for bicycles. Italy and Portugal restrict imports of rubber tyres from Japan.

C. Trade flows and consumption

18. Between 1981 and 1986 world production of natural and synthetic rubbers increased by 12 per cent from 12.2 million tons to 13.7 million tons, of which natural rubber accounted for 30-33 per cent. The estimated world rubber consumption was only slightly different from world production.

19. Table 7 shows main exporters of natural rubber and their exports in 1981-1986. All of them are countries in the tropical zone. Table 8 shows main importers of natural rubber and their imports in 1981-1986. Major markets for natural rubber include EEC, United States, Japan, China, USSR, Republic of Korea and Canada. Table 9 shows the consumption of natural and synthetic rubbers in main consuming countries.

20. Developed countries generally import natural rubber to complement their production of synthetic rubber. Brazil and India produce both natural and synthetic rubbers and import both of them to complement their own production.

21. Tables 10, 11 and 12 show main importers and exporters as well as their imports and exports in 1980-1984 with respect to rubber semi-manufactures, rubber tyres and tubes, and other rubber articles. World exports and imports of rubber semi-manufactures amounted to US$1.56 billion and US$1.61 billion, respectively. Those of rubber tyres and tubes amounted to US$7.35 and US$7.91 billion, respectively, and those of other rubber articles, US$2.10 billion and US$2.27 billion respectively.

22. Exporters and importers of the three categories of rubber products are numerous although a major part of trade in rubber products takes place between developed countries. Major exporters of rubber tyres and tubes include EEC, Japan, Canada, Republic of Korea, United States, Brazil, Austria, Yugoslavia, Sweden and Israel.

SECTION II: Tropical wood and wood products

A. Product information

(a) Tariff and statistical classifications

23. CCCN/HS Chapter 44 covers wood and most wood products and CCCN/HS Chapter 94 covers furniture including wooden furniture. Under the CCCN, wood and wood products were classified only according to the stage of processing and product forms or uses. Under the Harmonized System, however, most commercially important varieties of tropical wood have been separately identified at the fifth or sixth digit level under four-digit headings covering logs (4403) , sawn wood (4407), veneers (4408) and plywood (4412). Certain less important varieties of tropical wood falls within fifth or sixth digit HS code numbers for "other" varieties of wood.

24. Under the SITC, wood and wood products are often separated between "of coniferous wood" and "of non-coniferous wood" for statistical purposes. Most tropical wood falls within the category of "non-coniferous wood".

(b) Use of tropical wood

25. Tropical wood often has a pleasant appearance. This aesthetic value is often combined with physical qualities such as easy processing, good resistance and durability. Therefore, tropical wood of relatively high value is used for decoration (particularly in the form of veneers) , for furniture, for windows, doors and frames, for ceilings, walls, parquet floors and stairways, for fine carpentry, for boats and light vessels, for sports articles and industrial implements and for lathing, carving,

decorative objects and precision instruments. Tropical wood, often of medium value, that can be peeled is used for plywood and matches. Medium value tropical wood is also used as packaging and a large number of diversified goods (e.g. farming implements, rustic garden furniture and household equipment).

26. A detailed analysis of problems of international trade in forestry products is available in GATT document MDF/W/52, dated 15 August 1986. For example, developing countries' forest resource situation is examined on pages 60-64 of the document.

B. The commercial policy situation

(a) Tariffs

27. Tables 13-16 show the tariff rates (MFN and GSP) of eleven developed country markets with respect to (i) tropical wood in the rough and sawn, (ii) veneer, plywood, etc., (iii) wood articles and (iv) wood furniture.

An overview of the tariff situation

28. In developed countries tropical wood is generally imported free of duty as raw material. With regard to wood products, MFN duties of industrialized countries have been significantly reduced as a result of past multilateral trade negotiations. Most products in CCCN Chapters 44 and 94 (with the exception of certain sensitive items) enjoyed the 50 per cent tariff reduction in the 1964-67 Kennedy Round and the tariff reduction according to a harmonization formula in the 1973-79 Tokyo Round. Further, the GSP introduced by developed countries in the 1970's has covered industrial products extensively, including most wood products, and has eliminated or reduced duties applicable to developing countries in this sector to a large extent.

29. Nordic countries (Finland, Norway and Sweden) and Switzerland now provide developing countries MFN duty-free treatment or unlimited GSP duty-free treatment for all items in CCCN/HS Chapters 44 and 94.

30. The United States also grants such treatment with some exceptions (plywood, not tongued, grooved or rabbetted; certain miscellaneous wood articles). Canadian imports of logs, sawn wood and veneer sheets are granted MFN duty-free treatment. Most other wood products are subject to MFN duties of 4-15 per cent. The Canadian GSP scheme covers all of these wood products at the rates of 0-10.5 per cent.

31. With respect to all items in Chapters 44 and 94 Japan provides developing countries MFN or GSP duty-free treatment, with the exception that plywood is dutiable on an MFN basis and that GSP rates on certain sawn tropical woods (lauan, etc.,) and sheets for plywood are positive at one-half of corresponding MFN rates. Japan's GSP on wood products are subject to different types of ceiling limitations and maximum country amounts as indicated in Table 17. Japan has made significant MFN duty reductions and GSP improvements following the 1982-84 consultations on tropical products.

32. The EEC also provides developing countries MFN or GSP duty-free treatment except for planed or sanded sawn tropical wood. However, GSP imports of some sensitive items are subject to quota/ceiling limitations (see Table 18 for details) Romania is excluded from the application of GSP on certain wood items. The Republic of Korea is no longer a beneficiary of the EEC GSP scheme since 1988.

33. In Austria rough and sawn wood except planed or sanded sawn wood has been granted MFN or GSP duty-free treatment. Wood products are subject to MFN duties of 6-18 per cent and wood furniture, MFN duties of 7-27 per cent. All wood products have been covered by GSP at one-half of corresponding MFN rates.

34. In Australia rough and sawn wood (except planed or sanded sawn wood) as well as veneer sheets have been granted MFN or GSP duty-free treatment. MFN duties on other wood products range between 15 per cent and 30 per cent (mostly unbound). The Australian GSP scheme covers all of these wood products. GSP rates of Australia are uniformly 5 percentage points less than corresponding MFN rates. If MFN rates are reduced, GSP rates will be automatically reduced.

35. In New Zealand rough and sawn wood (except sanded or finger-joined sawn wood) have been granted MFN duty-free treatment. MFN duties on most wood products range between 10 per cent and 40 per cent (mostly unbound) . The New Zealand GSP scheme covers all wood products at 0-25 per cent.

(b) Non-tariff measures

36. Apart from quotas maintained by Denmark (EEC) on imports of wooden seats and wooden furniture from the Republic of Korea, only New Zealand maintains some non-tariff measures on products in this category. Recently liberalized products, i.e. exempt from licensing, include plywood, laminated wood, veneer sheets and sheets for plywood, shaped wood (excluding balsawood), wooden cases, wooden frames, and builders carpentry and joining (L/5640/Add.18/Supp.1) . Remaining products are subject to automatic licensing (licence on demand): fibreboard (CCCN ex 4419, HS4411) and wooden headings and mouldings (CCCN ex 4419, HS 4409).other articles of wood (CCCN ex 4428, HS ex 4421.90 etc.), and household utensils (CCCN ex 4424, HS ex 4419.00 and ex 4421.90). Wood shingles (CCCN 4428, HS 4418.50) are still subject to basic import licences. (Import Licensing Schedule 1987)

37. The construction industry and the wood processing industry are the users of wood and wood products: domestic building techniques and regulations necessarily influence buying patterns. Technical standards for the use of wood products, which differ substantially from import market to import market, and phytosanitary measures to control insect pests may create obstacles to trade (cf. MDF/W/52, "Problems of International Trade in Forestry Products", 15 August 1986).

C. Trade flows

38. Tables 19-24 show main importing and exporting countries and their imports and exports in 1980-1984 with respect to the following six categories of products:

Total of market economy countries (not including Taiwan Province)

42. Among the exporting countries of plywood listed in Table 21, main exporting countries of tropical wood plywood include Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, Philippines, Republic of Korea, Gabon, Hong Kong and Cote d'Ivoire . Main markets for plywood include EEC, United States, Saudi Arabia, Hong Kong, Singapore, Sweden, Canada, Australia, Japan, Nigeria, Norway, Kuwait, Oman, Yemen, Switzerland, Egypt and Algeria.

43. Among the exporting countries of wood articles (HS 4414-4416, 4418-4420, ex 4421.90), main exporting countries of tropical wood articles include Malaysia, Thailand, Taiwan Province (China) Republic of Korea, Philippines, Singapore, Brazil, Hong Kong, Cuba, India, Mexico, Indonesia and Honduras. Main markets for wood articles include EEC, United States, Saudi Arabia, Switzerland, Japan, Canada, Algeria, Iraq, Norway, Austria, Australia, Finland, Sweden, Singapore, Hong Kong, Israel, Libya, Nigeria, Bahamas and Mexico.

44. As shown in Table 24 covering furniture of all materials, a large majority of trade in furniture and parts takes place among industrialized countries. According to an ITC study , the bulk of furniture imports from developing countries consist of wooden furniture (primarily, living room and dining room furniture) and wooden furniture parts and components, as well as rattan and bamboo seating and other furniture. Among the exporting countries of furniture and parts listed in Table 24, main developing countries' exporters include Taiwan„Province (China) , Yugoslavia, Hong Kong, Philippines, Singapore, China , Republic of Korea, Thailand, Mexico, Turkey, Brazil, Malaysia and India. The United States is by far the largest market for furniture and parts from developing countries, followed by EEC, Japan, Australia and Canada.

2 China and Taiwan Province are not covered by Tables 19-24. Taiwan's

exports of wood articles and furniture amounted to US$451 million and US$721 million respectively in 1984.

45. Import data for tropical wood and some of their products (sawn wood, veneers and plywood) are available for some countries in terms of cubic meter (Table 2 5 ) . The table below shows the total of nine countries covered by the table.

46. As far as these nine countries are concerned, their imports of all wood in four forms increased from 84.3 million m in 1981 to 95.3 million m in 1986. -However, their imports of tropical wood decreased from 24.8 million m to 21.7 million in the period. With regard to tropical wood, the share of sawn wood and plywood increased at the expense of logs. However, the share of sawn wood in tropical wood trade is still much lower than that in all wood trade.

47. A major factor affecting the level of consumption and imports of wood and wood products is new housing construction, which is in turn largely influenced by the general economic situation. Another major factor which will affect the level of future trade in tropical wood would be the supply of such wood. A 1985 report called "Tropical Forests: A Call for Action" by an International Task Force convened by the World Resources Institute, the World Bank and the UNDP provides the following information on supply prospects:

"Developing countries possess nearly half the world's closed forests, but they produce only 21 per cent of its industrial timber. Many developing countries have both large natural forests and ecological conditions that are suitable for fast-growing industrial plantations. However, a decline in the area of accessible commercial forests is causing serious problems. In most of these countries current levels of forest management and reforestation fall far short of what is needed to limit imports and sustain exports. Exports to

industrialized countries are very important for some developing countries, but the most critical problem for the future is the growing inability of many countries to meet their domestic needs for industrial forest products.

"Imports of forest products by developing countries are increasing sharply, even in such countries as Nigeria, Thailand, and Mexico which should readily be able to supply their own domestic needs. Imports have risen from about US$6 billion in the early 1970s to almost US$10 billion today.

"In fourteen developing countries with suitable conditions for an expanded industrial forestry programme, imports of manufactured forest products now total nearly US$4 billion a year. Unless action is taken, this level of imports will continue to rise sharply.

"Over the past decade, exports of industrial forest products by developing countries have averaged about US$7 billion (1984 prices) and rank fifth overall in non-oil exports. The value of exports has risen sharply during this time but it is doubtful that this rate of growth will continue unless additional investment is made to sustain the productivity of industrial forest resources.

"In a number of countries, notably Cameroon, Gabon, Ivory Coast, Malaysia and the Philippines, current rates of timber harvesting and insufficient investment in forest management and reforestation will lead to a sharp decline in exports within 10-15 years. On a smaller scale, the same trend is perceptible in many other countries. In Ghana, for example, exports have fallen from a high of 124 million cubic meters in 1973 to 11 million cubic meters in 1982.

"By the end of the century, the thirty-three developing countries that are now net exporters of forest products will be reduced to less than ten, and total developing country exports of industrial forest products are predicted to drop from their current level of more than US$7 billion to less than US$2 billion."

SECTION III; Activities of international organizations

48. Several international organizations undertake work which is relevant and complementary to negotiations in the GATT on tropical products. With respect to inter-governmental facilities to compensate for shortfalls in commodity export earnings, the IMF Compensatory Financing Facility and the STABEX programme for ACP countries are noteworthy as measures of financial transfers to stabilize export earnings, while the variety of development projects and financial arrangements to promote and diversify commodity exports are numerous. Certain products in this group are covered by STABEX operations: unmanufactured wood (CCCN 4403, 4404, 4405) and rubber (4001).

Food and Agriculture Organization (FAQ)

49. The FAO Commodities and Trade Division pioneered commodity research and techniques for international co-operation in commodities, including natural rubber. This Division, whose activities are geared towards improving the functioning of international trade in agricultural commodities, monitors the world market situation and advises developing countries on the implementation of their national commodity policies. The FAO Forestry Department produces a monthly bulletin on tropical forest products in world timber trade.

50. Among regional agencies of the United Nations the ECE/FAO Agriculture and Timber Division services the ECE Timber Committee which reviews market developments and economic and technical aspects of the wood processing industry.

United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD)

51. Under United Nations auspices, UNCTAD is a major forum for international commodity action. Its principal achievements have been the Integrated Programme on Commodities (IPC) , established as a result, of Resolution 93(IV) at UNCTAD IV and the Agreement on the Common Fund for Commodities. Agreements on natural rubber and tropical timber have been established under the Integrated Programme.

52. A second International Agreement on Natural Rubber was formally adopted on 20 March 1987 by the United Nations Conference on Natural Rubber. Seven producers and thirty-three consumers representing about 9C per cent of world trade on natural rubber have embarked on the process to put in place a successor instrument to the 1979 INRA that expired on 22 October 1987. Ratification by countries representing at least 75 per cent of both exports and imports will be needed before the agreement is operational; until inception of the second agreement no later than 1 January 1989, buffer stock purchases will be suspended.

53. The new agreement has retained the same reference price, 201.66 Malaysia/Singapore cents (about 87 US cents) a kilo and the same intervention prices, "floor" and "ceiling" prices remaining at 150 and 270 cents respectively. The major change in the new agreement is the reference price review mechanism which will now be automatic. If the daily market indicator price is above the upper "intervention" price ("may sell") or below the lower ("may buy") for six months, the reference price is adjusted by 5 per cent unless the International National Rubber Organization decides on a higher adjustment. As a further step in tailoring the agreement more closely to market developments, price reviews take place every fifteen rather than, as previously, every eighteen months.

54. The buffer stock remains the sole price stabilization instrument; its maximum volume is unchanged at 550,000 tonnes. Financing of the buffer stock is shared equally by producers and consumers according to their respective trade shares within each of the groups. The provisions for borrowing to finance stock purchases have been eliminated.

International Tropical Timber Organization

55. Following a resolution of the United Nations Conference on Tropical Timber held in November 1983, the Secretary-General of UNCTAD convened a Preparatory Committee for the first session of the International Tropical Timber Council. Tropical timber is defined as non-coniferous tropical wood for industrial uses which is grown in the tropical zone; the term covers logs, sawnwood, veneer sheets and plywood. The International Tropical Timber Agreement established to provide an effective framework for cooperation and consultation between producing and consuming countries entered into force provisionally on 1 April 1985. The first meeting of the International Tropical Timber Organization took place in Yokahama in March 1987. Members currently numbering forty-one, represent more than 95 per cent of tropical timber trade.

56. In addition to encouraging policies to manage and conserve tropical forests the objectives of the International Tropical Timber Agreement are to (i) provide the expansion and diversification of international trade in tropical timber, (ii) encourage further processing and improve marketing and distribution activities in producing member countries and (iii) improve market intelligence.

United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO)

57. The Wood and Wood Products Industry is one of the industries included in consultations between developed and developing countries directed towards the industrialization of developing countries. The first consultations which took place in 1983 addressed problems and made recommendations concerning the development of processing industries and the promotion of wood and wood products.

International Trade Centre UNCTAD/GATT (ITC)

58. The ITC is the focal point for technical co-operation regarding the promotion of developing countries trade. With respect to rubber the ITC is in the process of implementing a project on Integrated Export Development support in natural rubber products. For tropical timber and timber products ITC is carrying out two multi-year interregional projects on builders wood work and wood-based panels. Various proposals on export development are awaiting financing.

International Organization for Standardization (ISO)

59. The ISO has been engaged in standardization work in the field of forestry, timber and wood products since 1947. Several hundred international standards cover aspects such as terminology, classification, dimension and test methods on such products as sawn timber, plywood and furniture.

International Rubber Study Group

60. This intergovernmental organization has as its principal objective, the comprehensive compilation of statistical information on production, consumption and trade in natural and synthetic rubber.
