Concluding remarks by the Chairperson of the Trade Policy Review Body, H.E. Mr. Mario Matus at the Trade Policy Review of Zimbabwe 19 and 21 October 2011

This second Trade Policy Review of Zimbabwe has provided an opportunity to improve our understanding of recent economic, including trade, policy developments, and to identify areas in which there is room for improvement. Our frank discussion has been stimulated by the full and open participation of the Zimbabwean delegation led by H.E. Pr. Welshman Ncube, Minister of Industry and Commerce, as well as by the perceptive remarks of the discussant, H.E. Dr. Anthony Mothae Maruping of Lesotho, and the active engagement of many Members.
