| Tiivistelmä: | In this article, it is argued that there is indeed a need for a reform of WTO law regarding the trade and environment nexus. Then the author discusses recent developments in WTO law and identifies three major reform needs and presents the outline of a possible authoritative interpretation of WTO law by the WTO Ministerial Conference that could reconcile different objectives and assist in maintaining a free and multilateral trading regime while not obstructing effective global environmental governance. Further the author summarises the findings of the study and offers a possible legal draft of an "Understanding on the Interpretation of Certain Provisions Relating to the Protection of Human, Animal or Plant Life or Health, or the Environment". |
