LAMY URGES MEMBERS TO ACCELERATE MOVEMENT TOWARDS COMPROMISES
Director-General Pascal Lamy reported to an informal meeting of the Trade Negotiations Committee on 28 July 2008 that "we have registered very important progress...there is now a very high level of convergence on many subjects". He urged negotiators to accelerate movement towards compromises in the coming hours, adding that he aims to issue revised "modality" texts on agriculture and non-agricultural market access later in the day.
