applications from people who wish to
serve on those panels. USTR is

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Dispute Settlement Mechanisms of U.S.
Free Trade Agreements
U.S. free trade agreements set out
detailed procedures for the resolution of
disputes over compliance with the
obligations set out in each agreement.
Generally, dispute settlement involves
three stages: (1) Lower level
consultations between the disputing
Parties to try to arrive at a mutually
satisfactory resolution of the matter; (2)
PO 00000
Frm 00080
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

cabinet-level consultations; and, (3)
resort to a neutral panel to make a
determination as to whether a Party is
in compliance with its obligations under
the agreement. This panel is composed
of individuals chosen by the Parties.
The method by which the panel is
selected varies between agreements.
Some agreements require the
establishment of a roster, from which
panelists shall normally be selected. See
e.g. Chile FTA, Article 22.7. Other
agreements allow the Parties to select
anyone as a panelist, after consultations,
but provide for a contingent list from
which panelists can be selected by lot,
if the Parties do not otherwise select a
panelist. See e.g. Singapore FTA, Article
20.4; Australia FTA, Article 21.7;
Morocco FTA, Article 20.7.
Eligible individuals who wish to be
considered for the various rosters and
lists will be invited to submit
applications. Persons submitting
applications may either send one copy
by fax or transmit a copy electronically.
Applications must be typewritten, and
should be headed ‘‘Application for
Consideration as an FTA Panelist.’’
Applications will be asked to include
the following information:
1. Name of the applicant.
2. Business address, telephone
number, fax number, and e-mail
address.
3. Citizenship(s).
4. Agreement or agreements for which
the applicant wishes to be considered.
5. Current employment, including
title, description of responsibility, and
name and address of employer.
6. Relevant education and
professional training.
7. Relevant language fluency, written
and spoken.
8. Post-education employment
history, including the dates and
addresses of each prior position and a
summary of responsibilities.
9. Relevant professional affiliations
and certifications, including, if any,
current bar memberships in good
standing.
10. A list and copies of publications,
testimony, and speeches, if any,
concerning the relevant area of
expertise. Judges or former judges
should list relevant judicial decisions.
Only one copy of publications,
testimony, speeches, and decisions need
be submitted.
11. Summary of any current and past
employment by, or consulting or other
work for, the Government of the United
States or for the government of the other
Party to the Agreement for which you be
to be considered (e.g. NAFTA,
Singapore, Chile, Australia, or
Morocco).
