The array of mechanisms for the implementation of the World Trade Organization (WTO) code are varied, subtle and sophisticated. Under Article X of GATT 1994 all legislative instruments and international agreements relating to or affecting international trade are to be published in an expeditious fashion for the benefit of both traders and governments. In particular, all such legislation that results in increasing the burden on traders is to be effective only when officially published. Procedures to prevent the suspected import or export of goods infringing intellectual property rights are to be made available, particularly in relation to counterfeit trade mark or pirated copyright goods. The requirement that the WTO provide special information to developing countries, for example in the field of technical barriers, is of particular relevance in enhancing the capacity of developing countries to ensure implementation through the WTO.
