After the Ministerial Council Meeting of 2005, it was agreed to launch the Globalisation and Structural Adjustment (GSA) project. It has three components.
GSA I aims to quantify the challenges arising from the integration of many non-OECD economies, including China, into the global trade and production networks for goods and services.
GSA II aims to analyse how recent developments in business support services, including cross-border delivery of services may enhance the performance of manufacturing.
GSA III aims to study how trade liberalisation affects labour markets, including the impact of trade on wages and benefits and the impact of trade on job creation and destruction.
The final reports were expected to be completed for the MCM 2007.
