Mr. Speaker, the discussions that were foreseen were postponed during the period when the NAFTA legislation was before the U.S. Congress. Once the legislation and the WTO were adopted by the U.S. Congress the talks proceeded.
The first consultations were held in Mexico three or four weeks ago. Further discussions are foreseen. In the first stage of the discussions the three countries are agreeing together on what the focus of their work should be in identifying the benefits of limitations on anti-dumping practices, as the member rightly says, which can bring benefit to all three countries in the NAFTA.
