Extrait de la lettre de la délégation permanente auprès de l'Organisation européenne de coopération économique
au sous-secrétaire d'État aux Affaires extérieures

LETTER NO. 64

RESTRICTED

Paris, le 13 février 1952


OEEC has recently completed a re-examination of its policy towards trade liberalization with special attention being given to the Common List technique. A special four-day session of the Trade Committee, at which most countries were represented by top trade officials, was held for this purpose from February 5th to 8th.

2. Meeting in the shadow of the recent difficulties experienced by a number of member countries in continuing the liberalization of trade, the circumstances were not auspicious. Nevertheless the Committee resolved that the elimination of quantitative restrictions on imports by Member countries among themselves remained one of the basic aims of OEEC and that the results already achieved should be safeguarded and extended. In order to achieve this end the Trade Committee decided that the Common List approach to liberalization should be overhauled and that the Organization should set up a Trade Policy Board to supervise and give direction to the commercial side of the Organization's activities.
