207. The representative of Bolivia agreed with the main points contained in the Brazilian submission and also expressed support for the intervention by the representative of Venezuela. As he had already stated under agenda item G, Bolivia had not been able to participate fully in the Council's discussions during this meeting on issues in which it had a great interest, because too many other important meetings were taking place at the same time for a small delegation like his to be able to be present at all of these continuously. Therefore, it would be important to his delegation, if a factual summary could be prepared of the points made when the Council had met to discuss, in informal mode, the relationship between the TRIPS Agreement and the CBD. Such a request was not a novelty in the WTO since, for example, in the framework of the Working Party on GATS Rules, a factual summary had been prepared by the Secretariat concerning an informal meeting that had taken place on 27 September 2000 as well as a summary by the Chairperson concerning an informal meeting on 3 November 2000.
