Imbalance of Trade
1. For the purposes of this article, trade is imbalanced if:
a) imports of any particular product by a Member State from another Member
State increase significantly;
b) this increase in imports causes or would cause serious damage to production
which is carried on in the territory of the importing Member State.
2. If a Member State suffers from trade imbalance resulting from the abusive
reduction or elimination of duties and charges levied by another Member State as
a result of unrecorded trade or for any other reason, the Member State shall
submit a report to the Secretary-General who shall refer the matter to the
Council. The Council shall propose to the Conference the measures to be taken.
