and is expected to hold its meetings in
Geneva, Switzerland, and to issue a
report on its findings and
recommendations within nine months
after the date of its establishment.

WTO Dispute Settlement Proceeding
Regarding United States—Measures
Affecting the Production and Sale of
Clove Cigarettes
[FR Doc. 2010–20182 Filed 8–13–10; 8:45 am]
AGENCY:
Major Issues Raised by Indonesia
The Office of the United
States Trade Representative (‘‘USTR’’) is
providing notice that on June 10, 2010,
the United States received a request
from the Republic of Indonesia
(‘‘Indonesia’’) for the establishment of a
dispute settlement panel under the
Marrakesh Agreement Establishing the
World Trade Organization (‘‘WTO
Agreement’’) regarding a provision of the
Family Smoking Prevention and
Tobacco Control Act (Pub. L. 111–31).
That request may be found at https://
www.wto.org in a document designated
as WT/DS406/2. USTR invites written
comments from the public concerning
the issues raised in this dispute.
DATES: Although USTR will accept any
comments received during the course of
the dispute settlement proceedings,
comments should be submitted on or
before September 15, 2010 to be assured
of timely consideration by USTR.
In its request for establishment of a
panel, Indonesia challenges a provision
of the Family Smoking Prevention and
Tobacco Control Act (Pub. L. 111–31)
(the ‘‘Act’’). Among other things, the Act
amends the Federal Food, Drug, and
Cosmetic Act by adding a new Section
907. Section 907 bans sales of all
flavored cigarettes, other than tobacco or
menthol flavors, wherever they are
produced, beginning 90 days after the
legislation was signed into law
(September 20, 2009). Indonesia states
that it considers Section 907 to be
inconsistent with the obligations of the
United States under Article III:4 and
Article XX of the General Agreement on
Tariffs and Trade 1994, and Articles
2.1, 2.2, 2.5, 2.8, 2.9, 2.10, 2.12, and 12.3
of the Agreement on Technical Barriers
to Trade. Indonesia further states that if
the United States should assert that the
measure at issue is an SPS measure,
then it is Indonesia’s view that the
measure is inconsistent with Articles 2,
3, 5, and 7 of the Agreement on the
Office of the United States
Trade Representative.
ACTION: Notice; request for comments.
