H NON-VIOLATION AND SITUATION COMPLAINTS
148. The Chairman recalled that paragraph 45 of the Hong Kong Ministerial Declaration directed the TRIPS Council to continue its examination of the scope and modalities for complaints of the types provided for under subparagraphs 1(b) and 1(c) of Article XXIII of GATT 1994 and make recommendations to the next session of the Ministerial Conference. It was agreed that, in the meantime, Members would not initiate such complaints under the TRIPS Agreement. 149. He further recalled that, at its meeting in March 2006, the Council had agreed to keep this item on the agenda as a regular item so as to allow Members who had new thinking to share it, and also enable the Council to consider improved ways of organizing its work on this matter.
