Textiles Surveillance Body
REPORT ON THE SIXTH MEETING HELD ON 25 -26 JULY1974
1. The Textiles Surveillance Body (TSB) held its sixth meeting on 25-26 July at theVilla Le Bocage.
2. The TSB approved the report on its fifth meeting which was subsequentlycirculated to the Textiles Committee in document COM.TEX/SB/27.
3. The TSB continued the discussion on how equity in treatment could best beassured between a member of the TSB and a non-member when their countries were bothinvolved in a dispute before it. Following its discussion the TSB adopted theguidelines set out in Annex I to this report regarding its internal procedure onthis matter. The point was made that, partly because of ambiguity involved in thetranslation into French of the second sentence of paragraph 6(d), a doubt had arisenas to its consistency with the preceding sentence. It was confirmed, therefore, thatthe full participation of the member and spokesman in the deliberations and draftingreferred to in the first sentence of this paragraph was not affected.
4. It was agreed that the views expressed by the parties involved ina disputebefore the TSB should be recorded in an annex to its recommendation on the dispute inquestion.
5. The TSB proceeded to assess the justification for the maintenance of restrictionson textiles by Mexico on the basis of a memorandum submitted by the Mexicanauthorities in accordance with the procedure agreed to by the TSB for the case ofMexico which is not a contracting party to the GATT, but is a party to theTextiles Arrangement. A delegation from Mexico presented the case before the TSB,and gave the necessary details and clarification the TSB sought from them in thisconnexion.
6. In considering this case, the TSB bore in mind the standards that would beapplied to developing countries which are contracting parties to the GATT.The TSBcame to the conclusion that, on the basis of the information submitted to it by theMexican authorities, Mexico was not required to terminate, at the present time,existing restrictions on textiles notified by it in accordance with Article 2,paragraph 1. The assessment by the TSB, and the conclusions arrived at, togetherwith the relevant documentation, are set out in Annex II (A to B) of this report.

7. The Mexican authorities exprossed their approciation to the TSB for itsexpeditious and efficiant consideration of the Mexican case, which, in the viewof the Mexican authorities, has placed Mexcio in a situation of equality withother developing countries which are contracting parties to GATT and parties totheArrangement Regarding International Trade in Textiles.
8. The TSB continued its review of the rotifications received from participatingcountries in accordance with Article 2, paragraph 1, since its last meeting. TheTSB had also before it all the details received, or clarifications sought,fromcertain participating countries with regard to carlier notifications. In thecourse of the review of these notifications, further questions were put bymembers, and the secretariat was requested to seek the necessary information fromthe countries concerned.
9.Mr. Garrido reminded the TSB that his term as a member would come to anendon 31 July, and that Mr. Dinzl would occupy the tripartite seat for the period1 August to 30 September 1974.
10. It was agreed that the next meeting of the TSB would be held on Thursdayand Friday, 19 and 20 September and, if necessary, through Saturday,21 September 1974.

ASSESSMENT BYTHE TSB OF THE JUSTIFICATION FOR THEMAINTENANCE OF RESTRICTIONS BY MEXCO
1. The TSE proceeded ta sasess the justification for the manitenance ofrestrictions on textiles by Mexico on the basis of the following documentsincluded in the Lnnexes t othis report.
(a) . memorandum submitted by HeXxco (.nnex II - B), as well as statisticalinformation attached threteo, in cacordance with the procedure agrede to bythe TSB (attached as nAnex Il - S);

2. The memorandum under (a) describes the situation in the textile sector, theoperation of the import licnesing system, th ejustification for the applicationof th esystem to th etxetil esector, and its non-discriminatory character andselective incidence. Th ememorandum also refers to the impracticability ofusnig alternative measures which would be consistent with the spirit of theGeneral ,gremeent. Data on production of, and trade in, the main groups oftextiles during th-e las- trgz eor f-or yaers, as well as other aneeral economicindicators, have also been supplied.
3. The TSB studi:d th edocumentary evidence submitted by the !exicanauthorities, and took note of the declaration and of th efurther informationgivneorally by th e1exican delegation. The case was considered with due regardto the standards that would be applied to devleopin gcountries which arecontracting parties t othe GTAT.
4. In conducting the examination, the TSB took into account the stage ofdveelopmnet of the Maxican economy and the contribution of the textile z3ctorto the GNP, and the general level of production nad employment in Ïe>xco. Itrecognized thatHow.cos' trade and develompnet needs vould have to be born einmind in any assessmnet of the justification for the restrictions maintained byit on imports of txetilse.
COM.TEX/SB/30 The TSB reiteratad that the foregoing related only to trade in textiles andwould not constituteany interpretation of the General Agreement,nor prejudice
inany way theprocadure to be followed were Mexico day to become acontrating party to the GATT.
6. The TSBappreciated the co-operation of the Mexican authorities insubmitting the necessary information, and the way in which they have presentedthe case before it.
CONCLUSIONS
A.-The TSB noted that the Mexican control system of imports was kept underconstant review with the objective that the controls would not remainindefinitely in force. The TSB noted, however, that a significant numberof textile items were restricted in various ways, and expressed the hopethat Mexico would soon find it possible to fully implement its objective.of trade liberalization, having regard to the fact that the basic objectivesstated in the Textiles Arrangement shall be to achieve the expansion oftrade, the reduction of barriers to such trade and the progressiveliberalization of world trade in textile products.
B. - The TSB came to the conclusion that Mexico was not required to terminate,at the present time, existing restrictions on textiles notified by it inaccordance with Article 2, paragraph 1.
C. - Th .TSB recommended that the Government of Mexico report before the endof 1975 on the evolution of the textiles industry, and on its relationshipto the restrictions then in affect.

ANNEX II-B
MEMORANDUM SUBMITTED BYMEXICO ON THE MEXICONPOLICYOF IMPORTCONTROLS .ONTEXTILESAND CLOTHING
I. GENERAL
Mexico's import control policy today reflects not so much a purely protectionistinterest as an imminently prospective programme of industrial promotion as part of thenational economic development plan.
The characteristics, of the economy of Mexico, as a developing country, havenecessitated the application of measures for channelling financial resources towardsproductive imports, i.e. imports of capital goods, which in turn help to reduce luxuryor non-essential purchases abroad.
The establishment by the Mexican Government of the industrial production instrumentknown as "manufacturing programmes", designed, through a system of gradual importsubstitution, to increase the national industrial input little by little, demonstratesprecisely one of the aspects of development policy involving the imposition of importcontrols, since this provides protection in the initial phases for undertakings whichmanufacture articles previously imported.
In addition, the instrument itself provides sufficient data so that once theconditions of the market are known, appropriate steps can be taken to ensure thehealthy development of Mexico's industry in terms of productive efficiency, proper useof installed capacity, valued added, price differences, rationalization and promotion.
The import control policy and the manufacturing programmes policy complement eachother to form in turn part of a series of instruments for industrial developmentestablished by the Governmentof Mexico, such as the Law to Promote Mexican Investmentsand Regulate Foreign Investments, and the Law on Registration of the Transfer ofTechnology and the Use and Exploitation of Patents and Trade-Marks.
Side by side with the machinery for the advance licence requirement, there isanother basic instrument, used not only Mexico but throughout the world, namely thecustoms tariff, this being the means of applying the tariff policy of a countryfornulated in accordance with this objectives of industrial development, importsubstitution, domestic market supply, stability of the trade balance, and in generalwith theeconomic development plans and objectives of national interest.
LEGAL FRAMEWORK
Mexican legislation has dealt in an eminently broad and clear-cut fashionwith the establishment or modification of controls on the importation. of goodswhere such controls clearly reflect the national political and economic objectives.The current provisions on the subject are the following:
(a) Law on the functions of the Federal Executive in economicmatters (30-XII-1950).
(b) Decree authorizing the Secretariat for Industry and Trade to determinewhich goods should be subject to import and export licences (26-IV-1948).
(c) Regulations governing the issue of import licences for goods subjectto restrictions (28-IX-1956).
(d) Regulatory Law on the second paragraph of Article 131 of thePolitical Constitution of the United States of Mexico (5-1-1961).
It is perhaps important to point out that within the legal norms governingthe establishment, of import controls there are orders requiring the MexicanGovernment to undertake regular investigation, in particular on the followingpoints connected with Article. 5 of the Regulatory Law referred to under (d) above:
1. The general trends of production, prices, the need for import articles,currency in circulation, and institutional credits.
2. Conditions governing the financing of foreign trade.
3. The country's international payment capacity, and in particular the financialsituation of the Federal Government.
4. The structure, trends and prospects of the balance of payments.
COM.TEX/SB/30Page 9
PRINCIPLES AND APPLICATION OFCONTROL ON IMPORTS OF MANUFACTURES
In general terms, the proposal to establish import controls implies thepromotion of national economic development, of which industrial development is aparticularly important aspect. To this end, control may be used: (a) brestricting imports; (b) by selecting the type of products to be imported;(c) by steering imports towards certain regions, and (d) by trying to meet thechanging demands of the market.
It may be pointed out that there are operative links between import controlsand manufacturing programmes which make it possible to manipulate the two instrumentsjointly with a view to carrying out the proposals they have in comon.
It should be mentioned that the controls are protectionist in character, butthey are designed to promote and develop a nascent industry on a sound footing.They are not conceived in a narrow sense with the idea or protecting individualundertakings regardless of the effects of such action at the national level.
Products coming under the regulations:
1. Imported products similar to those produced in the country and sold in Mexicoat prices lower than the prevailing consumer prices in the country of origin.
2. Imported products likewise manufactured in Mexico in acceptable conditions,quantities and quality but with a price differential of up to 25 per cent ascompared with the price applicable to the public in the place of origin, exceptwhere a greater differential is justified from the national point of view.
3. Product, under a manufacturing, programme which are authorized or approved inprinciple by the Secretariat.
4. Products intended for the Free Zones and Perimeters where the demand can bemet from national production in conditions of quantity, quality and price similarto those prevailing in the rest of the country, so that the conditions of supply canbe evened out
6. Products due to appear shortly on the market, in the case of producers whoseplants or expansion projects are in the course of installation and which complywith the conditions laid down by the Secretariat for Industry and Trade.
7. Primary commodities, components or materials produced in the country at acost enabling the finished products for which they are used to be sold at internationalprices.
COM. TEX/SB/30Page 10
8. Products which, even when there is a. deficit in domestic supply, entailsuch expense when imported that they have an adverse effect on Mexico's balanceof trade.
9. Products whose importation causes installed production capacity in thecountry to lie idle, provided that the beneficiary sector undertakes to make betteruse of the capacity in question.
10. Products for which there is a substitute in Mexico that can be manufacturedin similar conditions of supply to the international product.
Other more specific criteria governing the organization of import controlsare the following:
Administration and procedureThe specific rules applicable in administering import regulation are as
follows:1. Regulation applies exclusively to manufactured articles.
2. It is applied or withheld flexibly, on the basis of the following criteria:
(a) At the express request of national producers who consider that theycould work efficiently if they were given protection.
(b) With the backing of the official bodies which establish manufacturingprogrammes, where capacity to operate requires their application orliberalization.
(c) On the proposal of the Commissions or Committees set up to improve theconditions of production and supply of national products.
(d) On the proposal of producers of manufactures suitable for export.
3. The Secretariat for Industry and Trade determines the time-table and amountof imports with a view to correcting at any given moment any frictional or basicimbalance between supply and domestic demand.
4. Operational capacity has to be co-ordinated with the application of tariffsso as to prevent the one from hindering the other.

CONTROLS ON THE IMPORT OF TEXTILES AND CLOTHING
Tariff and non-tariff controls imposed by the Mexican Government on importsof textiles and clothing have a purpose similar to that affecting other articles;and here it must be pointed out that they likewise constitute mere instruments ofeconomic policy to stimulate the industrialization process in this area.
Mexico is a cotton-producing country and at the same time the main sector ofMexico's textile industry is concerned with the manufacture of cotton textile goods,but it still blacks an industry manufacturing textiles of artificial fibres,synthetic fibres and wool capable of fully supplying the domestic needs andproducing considerable surpluses for export.
Traditionally, Mexico has imported from abroad considerable quantities oftextile products which have invariably been more or less the equivalent of thetonnage exported. This situation on the one hand illustrates the limited natureof national production, and on the other calls for the gradual achievement of aframework favourable to industrialization, with import control as a supportingfactor.
Similarly, the products which were subjected to the requirement of priorauthorization before being imported are as a rule those for which nationalproduction is in its early stages, while at the same time there is a time elementwhich means that the control will not necessarily be in force indefinitely.Furthermore , as regards the tariff, there have been similar revisions of the tariffdesigned to reduce it so as to establish a climate of healthy development of thenational textile industry.
MachineryAs regards the machinery for the application of this policy, thee is a well-
defined co-ordination between the Federal Government and the production sectors,enabling the control measures and their operation to be enforced or waived. Thedirect controls forming part of the functions of the Secretariat for Industry andTrade are exercised through the action of Advisory Committees.
The Import Advisory Committees were set up in accordance with the Regulationsfor the issue of import licences for goods subject to restrictions, and they aremade up of representatives of the Secretariat forIndustry and Trade, which presidesover them, and representatives of other official hodies; and private institutionsand organs participate in an advisory capacity. These include importers andproducers.
CCM. TEX/SB/30Page 12
The members making up the existingCommittees have the capacity and knowledgeto give opinions on the matters under consideration, an effort being made to ensurethat the opinions given are fair andimpartial.
The functions of the Import Committees are as follows:
(a) To study and assess each import application submitted.
(b) Periodically to submit to the Secretariat for Industry and Tradesuggestions concerning import policies suitable for development in thebranches or groups with which each Committee is concerned, with dueregard to kindred matters in other branches.
The criteria generally required for the grant of import, licences are thefollowing:
I. The goods are not produced in the countrry and cannot be replaced by nationalproducts;
Il. Authorization is given for imports of goods similar to those of nationalorigin, in the light of their use and final destination;
III. The following criteria are also taken into consideration:
1. Prices. The national producer cannot selI the goods within thedifferential limit fixed at a reasonable level by the Secretariat for Industryand Trade, after consulting the sactors concerned.
2. Quality. The quality of the national product is not equal or similarto the import product; the import Advisory Committees then determine whether thenational product does or does not comply with the national or internationalstandards.
3. Delivery dates Ais a general rule, the delivery periods are fixedbetween the supplier and the national purchaser of the product in question, andin the event of problems arising, they are fixed by the Secretariat for Industryand Trade after hearing both interested parties, the following criteria beingborne in mind:
(a) Ordinary supply and demand for the product in question on the nationalmarket.
(b) The real needs of the user.
(c) The characteristics of production of the article in question, in otherwords, the question whether the article is mass-produced, procuced toorder, or whether its manufacture is highly specialized.
COM. TEX/SB/30Page 13
(d) The nature of the product, supply of the raw materials, parts andcomponents, both Mexican and foreign, the existing productioncapacity and its programming.
(e) The normal time required for delivery of the article in question,first of all within Mexico and in the country of origin, andsecondly, in a number of traditional supplier countries, in normalcircumstances.
(f) Existing stocks in the hands of manufacturers and distributors of theproduct in Mexico.
(g) The characteristics of the market (seasonal variations, increases orreductions in effective demand).
If the delivery dates fixed are not met, for unforeseeable reasons orthrough force majeure, the Secretariat for Industry and Trade may grant animport licence.
IV. Authorization is given for the importation of goods to undertakings whichhave previously obtained authorization for their manufacturing programme fromthe Secretariat for Industry and Trade in conformity with the stipulations ofthe same programme.
CONSIDERATIONS GOVERNING THE APPLICATION OFTHE SYSTEM OFA ANCE IMPORTLICENCESTOIMPORTSOFTEXTILESPRODUCTSOE Tr ZiPORTS OF Tl.-ddition te the considerations set furth yxplaining the Use oy the `MIeian
Government o? imortmcontrolsg as instruzents to u.de and promote the necessaryindustrial develoinent of the country, it is appropriate to indicate other reasonswhy such methods have been instituted in the textile manufacturing sector, in orderto mnae cleer, on the oae hanf, the importance o? thMt inaustry in the sexiceneconomy and, on the other, itsanresent situation sud the institutional supportmrequired for its i=ediate development.
In the m=.LPactering industry in Maxico, the textile sector (cotton, wool andartificial and synthetic fibres) has at present a predominant position: it takessecond place from the point of view of employment (225,000 workers), third placeas regards saeJries and wages (9,700 million pesos) and fourth place as regardsthe value nf its arooduction asd mhe emunt of investrent (21,500 million and28,000 million pesos respectively).
From 1971 to 1972 the textile sector had a growth rate of 10.1 per cent, butfron 1972 to 1973 it fell fo 8 per cent. The ?act that the volume of productiondecrec.sed is due to the scaacity of raw meteriels which occurred during the latteryear, although in sectors such as that of cotton textiles there were increases inproduwtion wnd exports, vhîch vas exceptional, in the general conditions of theworld economy.
The process of investment in the textile industry and the technical progresswhich resultedmref'lect thy Governaents police, which aims at consolidating theimprovement and ncdernization of equipment through measurls ff direct contro' o?ipooats, which shows thet it is not in fnct aiming at the irdiscriminate prohibitionof the entry intoufhe country of mano'actured articles -r capital goods.
Investments, of which the annual growth rate was 9.8 per cent between 1969and 1973 aud which amounted on average to 2,175 million pesos annually, made itrossibl to increase production equipment from 2.8 million spindles to 3.1 millionlu973 -zd from 71>,00 looms in the first year to 75,500 in the second. Further,the degree ofamodernization hcs consideranly increased. lu 1973 the cotton textilesector wam 75e7 per cent nodernized, that of artificial and synthetic fibres84.2 per cent and that of woollen textiles 67.5 per cent.
It should be emphasizeM here that, in 1exico, the cotton mindustry is the ostimportant because it hasf77.6 per cent n the spindnes il service aud 65.7 per centof the looms installed in the whole of the textile sector.
COM. TEX/SB/30Page 15
Imports of textile machines, equipment and spare parts amounted in 1973to 1,378.4 million pesos. For the period 1969-973, their average annual valuewas l,223 million pesos. The main countries supplying Mexico are the FederalRepublic of Germany, the United Kingdom, the United States of America, Switzerland,France, Italy and Japan.
As for exports of textile products,. there was a substantial increase from1971 to 1973, rising from 20,000 tons with a value of 323 million pesos in thefirst of those years to 53,000 tons and a value of 1,858 million pesos in thesecond year. On the other hand, Mexican imports of those articles went from24,000 tons with a value of 427. million pesos in 1971 to 20,000 tons with avalue of 983.5 million pesos in 19730. Those figures show that the foreign tradein textiles reflects the theefforts made by the national industry to penetrateinternational markets, on the one hand, and the requirements of the domesticmarket in respect of foreign products on the other, which would not be at allpossible if the direct import control measures applied by the Mexican Governmentwere not sufficiently flexible to allow of what is required by tha industrialand trade activity of the country. Before 1971, for example, the relationshipbetween the imports and exports of textile products was negative for Mexico.In 1969, imports amounted to 397 million pesos and exports to 211 million pesosonly, as compared with 510 million pesos for imports and 221 million pesos forexports in 1970.
The bulk of the imports are to be ascribed mainly to the artificial and,synthetic fibre textiles sector, in which one can say that Mexico is only startingto develop its industry. In 1973 alone, Mexico imported 17,367 tons of thosearticles, of which the value was 872 million pesos. The main supplying countriesare the united States, the United Kingdom, the Federal Republic of Germany,Canada, Switzerland, France and Japan.
Further, it should be noted that in Mexco the cotton sector., is the mainexporter of manufactured acticles, and that the latter, since the application ofthe former long-term GATT Agreement on the International Trade in Cotton Textiles,have invariably been subject to restrictions on entry into the large consumermarkets.
However, as our country is a natural producer of cotton fibres and as itpossesses an industry which has courageously endeavoured to modernize itself inorder to raise its productivity and improve the quality of its products withoutexposing itself to the serious consequences which would have resulted from anyshift in the work force, we have been able to maintain the rhythm of our exports,mainly since 1970, a year in which they reached 9,639 tons with a value of147 million pesos, attaining in 1972 19,455 tons with a value of 370 million pesos.We consider that 1973 was an exceptional year, and that such a short-term economicsituation is unlikely to occur again. On the contrary, it can be stated atpresent that international demand is in. a phase of stagnation and that consequentlyprices are following a downward trend. During: 1973, Mexico succeeded in exporting38,837 tons of cotten textiles, with a value of 1,055 million pesos (yarn andfabrics as production factors for the industries of the importing countries).
As regards the wool industry, Mexico has no large-scale undertaking. Ourcountry does not produce wool and consequently has to import large quantitiesof that fibre. But such consumption has tended to decrease in recent years.. In1971, apparent consumption amonted to 13,600 tons, in 1972 to 11,134 and in..973 to 10,258. That development is largely to be explained by the insufficiencyof world supplies and by the considerable rise in prices which had increased300 per cent since 1972.
As regards the part played by the system of advance import licences in thedevelopment of the Mexican textile industry, it is clear that our country isengaged in a process of immediate economic development based mainly on policiesof supporting agricultural and industrial activities and on measures of aneconomic character aimed at facilitating that development.
That is why it has been necessary to examine their problems and togivethe guidance and adopt the measures of promotion which were suitable,
ln the case of the textile industry, the three component sectors - cotton,artificial and synthetic fibres and wool - have similar problems in variousrespects.
In the first place, it must be made clear that the existence of our industrydepends on the constant importation of capital goods, as Miexico does not yetpossess an industry producing the machines and equipment which it needs.
Import control measures thus make it possible to determine the importanceof the various requirements and to guide investments. Similarly, in so far asthe textile production sectors tend to consolidate their structures with theaim of ensuring that domestic supply is adequate to cover home demand and makeit possible to reach foreign markets, which certainly does not make up forimports of capital goods, it is essential to avoid the iisorganization from whichproduction at the present stage would suffer if there were to be uncontrolledimports of competitive articles; so that the control measures in questionconstitute an effective means of prudently admitting such of those articles ascreate a healthy competition and stimulate an improvement of productivity.
They are also necessary not only because they meet the desire to baseinternal developments on indigenous factors, but also because they sometimeslimit the growth of trade imbalances which, in the case of textile products, arestill very obvious in respect of our exports.
TheMexicantextile industry, including the clothing industry, is situatedin thickly populated areas: the Federal District, Puebla, Jalisco,Nuevo Leon, and the State of Mexico. The rates of employment are at presentquite considerable: 310,000 workers and employees, that is to say nearly15 per cent. of the total labour force employed in the processing industry work
CO. TEX/SB/30Page 17
in that sector, which means that more than a million persons draw theirlivelihood from those activities. The irrational dismantling of these directimport control measures would resuIt in the immediate closing-down of manyundertakings which are still in a phase of structuration and consolidation, andalso of those which, having only limited capital, have not succeeded in reachinga level where production becomes efficient.
Furthermore, as is well known, Mexico has a frontier of 2,000 kilometreswith the United States. It is natural that the economic potential of thatnation should in many ways have an influence on the economic life of our country.A high proportion of Mexican trade is geared to the United States market:65 per cent of exports and 60 per cent of imports. .All those factors mean thatif we wish to promote our industrial development, including that of the textilessector, we must undertake the task of ordering and controlling the compositionand the level of imports.
It must be emphasized that Mexico does not apply the system in question ina discriminatory fashion in respect of any country. The heads of Mexican firmsin fact turn freely to there markets which are the most advantageous, both forimports and exports.
It should be repeated that the import licences are granted or refused inaccordance with the objectives mentioned above which have been fixedessentially with the object of guiding and promoting the industrialization ofthe country.
Up to the present, experience of the policy followed as regards directcontrol of imports shows that it has been effective at this stage of our processof development and, further, as at present applied, it offers the possibilityof taking rapidly, with all necessary flexibility, the necessary decisionsconcerning the problems resulting from the relationship between imports and thedomestic industrial process. The replacement of that means by other indirectmeans would certainly give a truly rigid character to imports, and wouldnaturally result in a really restrictive policy.

ANNEX 1Il - C
STATKNEMT BY THE REPRESENTATIVE OF MEXICO ATTHE MEETINGOF THE TSB ON25JULY 1970
M.r. Chairman, distinguished members of the Textiles Surveillance Body, andmembers of the secretariat of GATT.
I have the honour, as representative of the Mexican Gover'nment, .to tnrr4you a cordial message from the supreme authorities in my country and their good wishfor the success of the work of the Textiles Body in its difficult task of ensuringproper application of the Arrangement regarding international Trade in Textile .
The Mexican Government is following the outcome of your deliberations withinterest and is fully aware of the importance of the Textiles Surveillance Body asessential tool for the satisfactory development, on a just and equitable basis oftrade relations in the textile field, on the basis of the principles and provsLonsof the Arrangemant regarding International Trade in Textiles.
May I at tho same time, Mr. Chairman, express my thanks for the cordial welcome-you have just extended on behalf of the Textiles Survoilldnce Body, to the Moxicandelogation accompanying me; wc particularly appreciate, tho many efforts made, inconjunction with the members and secretariat of GATT, and the facilities you haveplaced at our disposal for thc satisfactory achivement of our task.
The fact that Moxco is attending this meeting is convincing proof of the dosizon the part of my Govornmxnot to participatc fully in thc multilaîteral mothods'at-dmechanisms aimod at solving the problems of international trade on an equitable hasabovc all, 'by applying sound principles designed to solve Mexico's problemssatisfactorily in thc light of its peculiar needs.
The above is particularly important in the case of developing countries likeMexico, since it emables them to give the proper priority to their development readyby applying general economic policies and specific instruments calculated to achivedto their full satisfaction, the goal of progressive development of' their ocoz10no1m
It ls on tho basis of this prînciplo, of a vin, he roprossivo devoic-ELLCUof Mexico s aconomv, which incidentally ls cmbodice- i ot;' o-t tic Gcr.rr.-cAgreement on Tariffs and Tradc, that Mexico is attending this mocting in accordncowith the terms of thc Textile Arrangement.
COM..TEX/SB/30Page664
Pursuant to the decision of the Textiles Surveillance Body at its lastmeeting and its request to the Mexicanauthorities to submit a memorandum givingthe pertinent in informationto enable .. to Body to access the justification formaintaining the restrictions spoiled byMexico to textiles, I have coma herepersona-lly to place the memorandum.in question before otu foer your considerationand to offer ary clarifications that may de necessary to enable you to make yourassessment.:
Cur attendance at this meeting should therefore be taken as a reflection ofa sincere spirit of co-operation iÎ ensuring the pr per application of theprovisions of the Textile Arrangement and at the same time as a formal appeal byMexi.co te the distinguished Survoillance Body te reach conclusion and a decisionon this matter bearing in mind constantly the new spirit of understanding,reflected irÀ the àrrangement regarding International Textile Trade, towards theproblems of the developing countries, while not losing sight of Mexico's goal,namely te work consistently and systematically in the field of domestic policy andin international relations te achieve the progressive development of its economy.
In the memorandum submitted by t'Iezcoto the Textiles Surveillance Body andnow in your possession, we explain the motives which have led us maintain thesystem of requiring a prier licence to import, not only .the textile sector,but in respect of the economy i. general, with a view to ensuring the economicdevelopment needed by the country.
Bearing in mind the views put forward and the hard facts of the process ofdevelopment of Mexico's economy, we look forward to working with you to furnishany explanations that may be required; and I should like to outline for yourbenefit sone general pointers te enable you te assess in a spirit of completeobjectivity the situation with which Mexico is faced today.
2.t the present tine, Mexico has 58 million inhabitants and is growing at anannual rate of 3.5 per cent. This maxces it vitally necessary to create800,000 new jobs each year and te provide all the indispensable services te gowith them. Of the total population, 32 per cent, or approximately 18 trillion per-sons, make up the economyally active population, and of these, 34.0 per cent areemployed in the primary sector, 24.7 per cent in industry, 22.6 per cent inservices, 10.2 per cent i.n trade, 3.1 per cent in transport, and 5.4 per cent inother activities.
But from the sectoral point of view, trade and services make up 52.2 par centof the gross domestic product, manufactures 23.4 per cent, and agriculture, stock-rearing and fishing only 10.3 per cent.
COM. TEX/SB/30-Page 65
This imbalance is further reflected in the fact that a person occupied inagriculture generates only 13.4 par cent of the income produced by a serviceworker, and -1i.3 pcr cent of that of a worker in industry. Independently of itsdistribution, the gross domestic product has been increasing annually over thedecade 1963-1973 at the rate of 7.1 per cent (at constant prices). This has nodoubt brought about an improvement in per capita income, although it has not beenpossible to distribute the benefits of development among wide sectors of thepopulation - a situation further aggravated in those regions of the country whichare outside the orbit of the progress being made.
There are zones or regions in Hiexico which have not been incorporated intothe development process. Hence one of the aims of the economic policy of thePiexican Goverument is to achieve a balanced economic development .
The economic structure of the Niexican population is as follows: 40 per centare families in low income brackets, 30 per cent are "'lower middle class, 20 percent "middle classic and 10 per cent 'upper classes. This economic structure hasmeant that illexico's development process is restricted for want of an extensivedomestic market such as is indispensable if industrial growth is to be promoted.
For this reason, we have established a policy of redistributing income amongeconomic activities, regions and social sectors in the light of the economicpotentiality of each region so as to achieve minimum levels of well-being for thepopulation.
The hexican economy operates on the basis of a system of mixed economy inwhich both the public sector and the private sector play an important rôle indevelopment. The State influences the level and nature of private investment,channelling i-. towards those sectors where investment is necessary and givingparticular attention to the solution of problems of efficiency and costs as partof the planning of industry as a whole.
The instruments created to promote.industrialization reflect the structureand the problems described above; thus there are various mechanisms, fiscal,administrative, financial, etc., including the so-called prior or advance importlicence requirement, the administration of which, in conjunction with the appli-cation of the tariff, constitutes the essential instrument for regulating externaltrade with a view to achieving the objectives of economic development.
COM.TEX/SB/30Page 66
This instrument does not create a can on imports. Its main feature is thatit regulates imports in the light of the country's needs, and its application issubject to constant review, so that it is dynamic in character. At the Same time,the prior licence system isnot discriminatory as regards the countries fromwhich products come, nor is itsapplication aimed at protecting undertakings inparticular
Thus the goals to be pursued by industrialization in the interests of theeconomic development of the country are: to extend industrialization to all partsof the national territory so as to exploit the natural resources available andthe capacity of tale existing industrial plant to generate the sources of employ-ment required for Mexico's democratic growth; and to consolidate the domesticmarket and produce surpluses enabling our products to complete abroad, theultimate object of all this being to provide a higher standard of living for thepopulation.
As regards the textile industry, considered separately for the purpose ofstudy only, here we have an industry providing employment for a considerable partof Mexico's labour force, which is concentrated in certain regions andpresents a
peculiar problem in the economic and social context.
As is pointed out in the document you have received, within the manufacturingindustry in Mexico the textile sector (cotton, wool and man-made fibres) has prideof place at the present time. It comes second as regards the number of personsemployed, namely, 225,000 workers (but it must be pointed out that this figuredoes not include 85,000 workers occupied in the clothing industry); third asregards wages and salaries (9,700 million pesos or $776 million), and fourth asregards value of production and level of investment (21,500 million pesos and28,000 million pesos, or $1,720 million and $2,240 million respectively).
Mexico's textile industry, which is one of the oldest industrial benches,has certain peculiarities from the point of view of its structure and its economicand social importance, which make the problems it has to face highly significantand important in the country's economy.
As regards its structure, while there are modern undertakings with greatproductiive efficiency, there are others still operating which have antiquated orfairly antiquated equipment, even though it is in the process of being replaced.An important part has been played in this replacement process, by the system ofimport licences, which has made it possible to channel purchases of machinery andequipment towards the less competitive branches or sectors, thus encourage theirmodernization and increasing their efficiency.
COM.TEX/SB/30Page 67
Independently of the structural aspect already mentioned, within theMexican textile industry each sector which it contains has a distinct degreeof competitivity. That differing degree of competitivity is basically determinedby the cost and availability of the raw materials used by each sector. Thusthree sectors can be distinguished, of which each particular situation isdifferent: cotton, man-made fibres and wool.
As regards the cotton sector, the Mexican textile industry has an abundantsufficiency of raw material and at international prices, for its domesticproduction of cotton amounts to 1,700,000 bales, a figure which is approximatelydouble the requirements of the industry (825,000 bales).
However, the cotton textile sector faces a problem resulting from thelarge number of undertakings it contains - more than 300 - of which only25 per cent, that is to say 75 factories, are of a size which enables then tobenefit from the savings resulting from large-scale production. Those are thevery undertakings which are active in the field of exports, representing50 per cent of the installed capacity in the sector. The remaining 225 under-takings are small and medium-sized factories, many of then operating on amarginal basis. Those 225 undertakings represent the remaining 50 per centof the total installed capacity.
Another factor affecting the competitivity of the cotton textile sectoris that connected with the cost of labour, which, unlike that in most developingcountries, is relatively high. In fact, according to an enquiry carried out bythe IFCATI (International Federation of Cotton and Allied Textiles Industries),Mexico takes 13th place in the world as regards cost per man/hour in terms ofwages and social benefits. That cost if US$2.25 per man/hour.
As regards the man-made fibre sector, the situation is entirely different,as in that case domestic production of the raw materials for the production ofthe fibres is not sufficient. Furthermore, the prices of those national rawmaterials are higher than the international levels, by percentages which varyfrom 20 per cent to 70 per cent in some cases.
That situation results in the fact that the products which the textileindustry manufactures using as raw materials man-made fibres cost appreciablymore than similar products produced in other countries which rely on rawmaterials at international prices. It is estimated that the differences in costvary from 10 per cent in the case of manufactures based on rayon to 50 per centin the case of articles based on polyester. For that reason the man-made fibretextile sector does not have a degree of competitivity making possible largeexperts of its products.
As regards the wool sector, its position can be regarded as intermediatebetween that of the cotton sector and that of the man-made fibre sector.The wool sector has to depend to the extent of almost 90 per cent on imports ofraw material, as the national suply is not sufficient nor are its qualities
adequatafor that sector to attain a production of manufactured articles capableof competing on the international markets. That situation also results incosts which are comparatively higher than those in countries which are at thesame time producers of the raw materials and thus are able to have supplies atlower. prices in sufficient quantity and of adequate quality.
Taking into account the general situation which has been described, Mexicohas found it very useful to use the machinery of import licences, in co-ordinationwith customs duties, to favour the development of those industrial activities.The flexible nature of its administration renders feasible the importation ofthose products; whether raw materials or manufactured articles, of which thedomestic production is not adequate or does not combine the essential requirementsregarding quality and price, without it being rendered more expensive by highcustoms duties which, if there were no import licence, would have to be establishedas a means of protecting the national producers.
Thanks to the existence of the system of advance licences, the levels ofcustoms duties existing in Mexico in respect of textile products are at present15 per cent for raw materials, 25 per cent for semi-finished articles and35 per cent for nearly all manufactured goods.
As an instrument of industrial promotion it also makes it possible to regulatenational production prices, preventing them from being more than 25 per centhigher than those prevailing on foreign markets. In some cases that percentagemay be higher, depending on the characteristics or special situation of economicactivity concerned, or for reasons of national interest, as is the case withraw materials of petro-chemical origin.
Further, the establishment of import licence machinery, is conditional on theundertaking by the national producer to comply, amongst other things, withrequirements as regards quality, prices and delivery dates; and that has to besupported by information concerning investments, aggregate value, productioncapacity or employment created, percentage of demand satisfied, and competitionwith foreign goods. All those factors have to be analyzed before adopting adecision on the setting-up of import licence machinery with the objective ofensuring true growth for the industry.
Mr. Chairman, and Members of the Surveillance Body, this has been a matter ofmaking clear to you the essential and most outstanding features of the mechanicsand operation of the system of advance licences for imports in force in Mexicoand its underlying philosophy aimed at overcoming our problems of development, andof giving, you a general description of the main significant facts relating to theMexico economy.
COM.TEX/SB/30Page 69
This presentation of the facts is in accordance with our desire to provideauthentic information concerning all the facts required by this body to enable itto arrive at the conclusion which Mexico has requested. It should be consideredas supplementing the basic document, which we have submitted for your considerationand in the preparation of which we have endeavoured to deal with the mattersraised by this body at its last session.
The Mexican delegation remains at your disposal to give any relevantexplanation which may help you in your task.

ANNEX II - D
COMPLEMENT TARY INFORMATION AND CLARIFICATIONSGIVEN BY THEMEXICANDELEGATION IN RESPONSE TO CERTAIN QUESTIONS RAISED BY THE TSB AT
ITS MEETINGON 25 JULY l974
Main characteristics of the system
The Mexican delegation stated that the prior licensing system was a.dynamic instrument of the Mexcian industrial development policy, and was in noway tantamount to a prohibition of imports. A supporting evidence to this wasto be found in the large volume of imports entering Mexcio as shown by thetable in the statistical annex of the memorandum submitted. The system wasnot intended to enable domestic producers to reach self-sufficiency, butrather to complement national production. The system, should be regarded as themeans chosen by the Government to direct import towards those sectors of thecountry where they were necessary to cope with development needs. It was amatter of developing the industry on the basis of healthy competition, andseeking ultimately to direct it towards external markets.
Selective incidence of the system
The Mexican delegation pointed out that the intention behind the priorimport licensing system was that the national industry should be rendered moreefficient considering the fact that the import licences eere granted when thenational producers could not supply the domestic market at adequate prices withhigh-quality goods and reasonable delivery dates. The main objective was toassist those industries which were viable.
Duration of the application of the system
The Mexican delegation stated that there was a tendency on the part of theGovernment not to apply such import licences for an indefinite period on thesame products. The actual needs of economic development, and the situation ofthe industry concerned, were instrumental in determining the period for whichthe licensing requirements would remain in force.
Non-discriminatory character of the system
The Mexican delegation pointed out that, according to the law establishingthe system, the prior import licenses were not discriminatory in respect of thecountries of origin from which the goods were imported, nor in respect of thegoods themselves.
COM.TEX/SB/30Page 71
Textile products subject to the system
The Mexican delegation informed the TSB that, at the present time, some90 per cent of imported. textile products, including raw materials, semi-finished and finished articles, were subject to the prior impact licensing system.
Free zones
The Mexican delegation explained that the free zones were situated in remotecities along the United States border of 2,000 kilometres, and in the southernpart of Mexico. On account of the long distance that separated these zones fromthe centres of the industry, it was difficult for the Mexican products to becompetitive in these areas. This was evidenced by the high level of imports intothese free zones as compared with other parts of Mexico. Imports into thesezones, as distinct from imports into the interior of the country, enjoyed thebenefit of a fiscal system that constituted an exemption, whereby such importswere exempted from customs duties. However, the prior import licensing systemapplied equally to the free zones.

PROCEDURE, AGREED TO BY THE TSB¹ ON THE CASE OF MEXICO NOT BEINGA. CONTRACTING PARTY TO THE GATT, BUT BEING A PARTY
TO THE TEXTILES ARRANGEMENT
1. Article 2, paragraph 2, of the Arrangement lays down that:
"Unless they are justified under the provisions of the GATT (including itsAnnexes and Protocols), all unilateral quantitative restrictions and any otherquantitative measures which have a restrictive effect and which are notifiedin accordance with paragraph 1 above shall be terminated within one year ofthe entry into force of this Arrangement, unless they are the subject of oneof the following procedures to bring them into conformity with the provisionsof this Arrangement .........
2. It is the view of the TSB that a balance of rights and obligations needs tobe established as between parties to the Arrangement which are contracting partiesto the GATT, and those which are not.
3. The Mexican Government, in acceding to the Arrangement under the provisionsor Article 13(2), reaffirmed that Mexico, which is not a contracting party tothe GATT, expects, by virtue of acceding to the Arrangement and in respect ofall matters covered by the Arrangement, to obtain treatment equal to thatafforded to other participating countries having similar economic systems andlevels of development.
4. It was recognized by the TSB that it would be unreasonable and inappropriateto expect a non-contracting party to justify such restrictions before permanentGATT bodies.
5. The TSB noted that it would be important to have regard to the standardsthat would be applied to developing countries; which are contracting parties tothe GATT, bearing in mind the terms of paragraph 2 of Article 13 of the TextilesArrangement.6. Having regard to the foregoing, the TSB considered that inorder to assessthe justification for the maintenance of restrictions by Mexico, the Mexicanauthorities, like all non-contractirng parties to the GATT having similareconomic systems and levels of development could submit a memorandum to theTSB broadly on the lines of the submissions which might be required fromcontracting parties in similar positions and circumstances, and containingrelevant information relating to the economy of Mexico and to its textileindustry, together with supporting statistical data and general economicindicators.
¹The TSB agreed to this procedure at its meeting on 11-12 July 1974(see COM.TEX/SB/27), following its discussions at previous meetings.
