9. The Chairman said that, as requested by the Council at its meeting in June, the Secretariat had updated its informal note that listed all the outstanding material required to complete the reviews that the Council had already undertaken (JOB(03)/209). The table attached to the note listed 18 Members whose reviews had been initiated at the Council's meetings since April 2001 but which remained on the Council's agenda. In addition, the note listed a number of Members whose reviews had already been deleted from the Council's agenda, but to whom further questions had been posed.
10. He recalled that he had informed the Council at its meeting in June that Brazil and the Philippines had provided responses to all outstanding questions just prior to that meeting. Furthermore, China had provided responses to all of the outstanding questions posed to it in the context of its regular review initiated in September 2002, and all of these responses had been circulated to Members prior to the present meeting. He proposed that the regular review of the legislation of Brazil, China and the Philippines be deleted from the agenda, it being understood that any delegation should feel free to revert to any matter stemming from these reviews at any time.
