The Chairperson informed the Council that, since the last meeting, updated information on technical and financial cooperation activities relevant to the implementation of the TRIPS Agreement had been received from the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) (document IP/C/W/108/Add.6). As mentioned at the meeting in February, the Council had received, for the year 1998, updated information on technical and financial cooperation activities from 16 developed country Members. If one also took into account information provided in the previous years, the Council had received information altogether from 18 different Members. There were still some developed country Members that had not provided information on their technical and financial cooperation activities. As agreed at the Council's meeting in December 1998, the Secretariat had contacted those Members.
