AutoNDA by SimpleDocs
Domestic Measures. Counter measures first were introduced through the establishment of "Special FTA Law" in 2004 right after the conclusion of the Korea · Chile FTA. It has two policies such as a short-term compensation policy and a long-term policy to strengthen the competitiveness. The government already announced a long-term investment program of 119 trillion won for 10 years (2004-2013) on agriculture. After the consecutive conclusions of FTAs with Chile, U.S. and the E.U., the government specially reallocated 10 trillion won out of the 119 trillion won program and added increases of 10.3 trillion won for the next 10 years for the Korea · US FTA and an additional 2 trillion won for the next 10 years for the Korea · EU FTA. It means 20.4 trillion won was newly introduced as compensation to counteract damage from the FTA. For the short-term direct compensation program, 1.4 trillion won was allocated. However, for the long-term program, 7 trillion won was allocated for strengthening competitiveness by products. 12.1 trillion won was allocated to improve agricultural structures. All those measures were concentrated mostly on the livestock industry and partly on the fruits industry.
Domestic Measures. Article 3 calls upon all Parties to ‘‘endeavor’’ to become Parties to all ten of the instruments listed in paragraph 1 of Article 2 and to adopt the necessary measures to implement them effectively. Some delegations proposed during the negotia- tions to make this provision mandatory but a number of states re- sponded that such an obligation could be read by legislatures as taking away or diminishing their involvement or prerogative in the process of becoming Parties to the ten listed instruments. A similar provision appears in paragraph 3(d) of UN Security Council Resolu- tion 1373 (2001) (‘‘UNSCR 1373’’). Measures To Prevent, Combat, and Eradicate Financing of Ter- rorism: Article 4 commits each Party, to the extent that it has not already done so, to institute a legal and regulatory regime to pre- vent, combat, and eradicate the financing of terrorism and for effec- tive international cooperation in that area, which includes: —A comprehensive domestic regulatory and supervisory re- gime for banks and other financial institutions and other enti- ties deemed to be susceptible to being used for the financing of terrorist activities; —Measures to detect and monitor the movement across bor- ders of cash, bearer negotiable instruments, and other appro- priate movements of value; and —Measures to ensure that the competent authorities have the ability to cooperate and exchange information at the national and international levels, including the establishment and maintenance of a financial intelligence unit. These provisions are similar to provisions in the Terrorism Fi- nancing Convention and UNSCR 1373. When establishing and im- plementing these financial control measures, the Parties agree to use as guidelines the recommendations developed by specialized international and regional entities, in particular the Financial Ac- tion Task Force on Money Laundering (FATF) and, as appropriate, other regional entities. However, because the recommendations of these entities can change over time, the requirement is that the Parties use the recommendations of these entities as ‘‘guidelines’’ rather than that the Parties implement all of those recommenda- tions in full. Seizure and Confiscation of Funds or Other Assets; Predicate Of- fenses to Money Laundering: Under Article 5, each Party commits, 1 There are 12 UN conventions and protocols on terrorism. Following the practice adopted in the 1999 Terrorism Financing Convention, only 10 of the instruments are listed in this C...
