68. The representative of Canada preferred to have more time to examine the responses that had been submitted recently and those which were expected to be submitted shortly. Given the variety of responses, there would perhaps be a challenge in developing an approach towards consolidating this information in some comparative form. He noted that the EC had referred to informal document No. 800 of 12 February 1999, thus suggesting that a similar approach might be a way to look at the responses to the Checklist on Article 24.2 as well. In his delegation's view, it was very difficult to devise one approach for comparative analysis that would accommodate the variety of models at issue. The approach that had been suggested in informal document No. 800 was in fact an approach suited to a particular model that might be used but might not necessarily be suitable to the variety of models that were in place in WTO Members. His delegation preferred to take a little more time and to reflect more on how best to put together this information in a comparative way to assist all WTO Members in understanding the various approaches to this matter.
