Ambassador Dacio Castillo (Honduras)
Adoption of the agenda
5. The representative of India said that he was surprised to see that an item on IP enforcement had again been proposed on the agenda. At its October 2011 meeting, the Council had had on its agenda a similar item at the behest of the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA) participants. At that time, Members had said that the idea had been to circulate the ACTA text. The item had no place on the agenda of this meeting, since the Council was not a forum to discuss such an agreement. He therefore opposed the adoption of the proposed agenda.
