【C20】
The World Trade Organization (WTO) is the only international organization dealing with the global rules of trade between nations.
   It has more than 130 members, accounting for over 90% of world trade. Over 30 others are negotiating membership.
   Decisions are made by the entire membership. This is typically by consensus. A majority vote is also possible but it has never been used in the WTO, and was extremely rare under the WTO’s predecessor, GATT. The WTO’s agreements have been ratified in all members’ parliaments.
   The WTO’s top level decision-making body is the Ministerial Conference which meets at least once every two years.
   Below this is the General Council which meets several times a year in the Geneva headquarters. The General Council also meets as the Trade Policy Review Body and the Dispute Settlement Body.
   At the next level, the Goods Council, Services Council and Intellectual Property Council report to the General Council.
   Numerous specialized committees, working groups and working parties deal with the individual agreements and other areas such as the environment, development, membership applications and regional trade agreements.
   The WTO Secretariat, based in Geneva, has around 500 staff and is headed by a director- general. It does not have branch offices outside Geneva. Since decisions are taken by the members themselves, the Secretariat does not have the decision-making role that other international bureaucracies are given.
   The Secretariat’s main duties are to supply technical support for the various councils and committees and the ministerial conferences, to provide technical assistance for developing countries, to analyze world trade, and to explain WTO affairs to the public and media. The Secretariat also provides some forms of legal assistance in the dispute settlement process and advises governments wishing to become members of the WTO. The annual budget is roughly 117 million Swiss francs.
