GATS第21条所赋予成员的修改具体承诺的权利因美国赌博案中美国的作为受到关注。GATS第21条及其实施规则为减让表修改确定了规则,并设置了独特的仲裁程序。作为预留的安全阀设置,修改权的存在对促进服务贸易自由化深具意义。然而,从对修改权的两次实践运用来看,第21条程序本身还有不完善之处,其与DSU程序的关系也亟待厘清。第21条程序的仲裁规则和异议程序需要进一步完善,修改成员不应在DSU程序已经进行到执行阶段才提起修改程序。中国也可以适时主张减让表修改权,并可以在这一过程中主张给予发展中国家成员的特别待遇。
The rights granted to members by Article 21 of the GATS to amend their specific commitments are of concern for the actions of the United States in the U.S. gambling case. Article 21 of the GATS and its implementing rules set the rules for the modification of the Schedule and set out a unique arbitration procedure. As a reserved safety valve setting, the existence of the right to amend is of great significance to the liberalization of trade in services. However, judging from the two practical applications of the right of amendment, the Article 21 procedure itself has imperfections, and its relationship with the DSU procedure needs to be clarified. Article 21 The procedural arbitration rules and objection proceedings need to be further refined. Amending members should not initiate a revision procedure until the DSU procedure has been implemented. China can also advocate timely modification of the schedule of abolition, and in the process can advocate giving special treatment to developing country members.
