H Review of legislation in the areas of trademarks, geographical indications and industrial designs
38. The representative of Korea said that his delegation was not opposed to the Chairman's suggestion to start consultations with developing country Members aimed at spreading out the review exercise, but wished to point out that this should not serve as a means to categorize Members as more advanced and less advanced developing countries. Neither should these consultations discourage early notifications by developing country Members of their legislation for transparency purposes. The consultations should be of a purely voluntary nature.
