             Subtitle A--Findings, Purpose, and Definitions

SEC. 101. CONGRESSIONAL FINDINGS AND PURPOSE.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds the following:
            (1) The United States joined the World Trade Organization 
        as an original member with the goal of creating an improved 
        global trading system and providing expanded economic 
        opportunities for United States workers, farmers, and 
        businesses.
            (2) The dispute settlement rules of the WTO were created to 
        enhance the likelihood that governments will observe their WTO 
        obligations.
            (3) Successful operation of the WTO dispute settlement 
        system was critical to congressional approval of the Uruguay 
        Round Agreements and is critical to continued support by the 
        United States for the WTO. In particular, it is imperative that 
        dispute settlement panels and the Appellate Body--
                    (A) operate with fairness and in an impartial 
                manner;
                    (B) strictly observe the terms of reference and any 
                applicable standard of review set forth in the Uruguay 
                Round Agreements; and
                    (C) not add to the obligations, or diminish the 
                rights, of WTO members under the Uruguay Round 
                Agreements in violation of Articles 3.2 and 19.2 of the 
                Dispute Settlement Understanding.
            (4) An increasing number of reports by dispute settlement 
        panels and the Appellate Body have raised serious concerns 
        within the Congress about the ability of the WTO dispute 
        settlement system to operate in accordance with paragraph (3).
            (5) In particular, several reports of dispute settlement 
        panels and the Appellate Body have added to the obligations and 
        diminished the rights of WTO members, particularly under the 
        Agreement on Implementation of Article VI of the General 
        Agreement on Tariffs and Trade 1994, the Agreement on Subsidies 
        and Countervailing Measures, and the Agreement on Safeguards.
            (6) In order to come into compliance with reports of 
        dispute settlement panels and the Appellate Body that have been 
        adopted by the Dispute Settlement Body, the Congress may need 
        to amend or repeal statutes of the United States. In such 
        cases, the Congress must have a high degree of confidence that 
        the reports are in accordance with paragraph (3).
            (7) The Congress needs impartial, objective, and juridical 
        advice to determine the appropriate response to reports of 
        dispute settlement panels and the Appellate Body.
            (8) The United States remains committed to the 
        multilateral, rules-based trading system.
    (b) Purpose.--It is the purpose of this subtitle to provide for the 
establishment of the Congressional Advisory Commission on WTO Dispute 
Settlement to provide objective and impartial advice to the Congress on 
the operation of the dispute settlement system of the World Trade 
Organization.

        by the minority leader or his designee. Such leaders, or either 
        of them, may, from time under their control on the passage of a

there is a reasonable indication that government intervention has 
distorted prices or other economic indicators in the country that is

prices or economic indicators are otherwise unavailable, then the 
administering authority shall measure the benefit conferred to the 
recipient by reference to data regarding relevant prices or other 
economic indicators from a country other than the country that is 
subject to the investigation or review. If there is a reasonable 
indication that prices or other economic indicators within a political 
subdivision, dependent territory, or possession of a foreign country 
are distorted, or data are not available, then the administering 
authority shall measure the benefit conferred to the recipient in that 
political subdivision, dependent territory, or possession by reference

prices or other economic indicators are not distorted, regardless of 
whether such area or region is in the same country.''.

                and (5A), the term `exchange-rate manipulation' means 
                protracted large-scale intervention by a country to 
                undervalue the country's currency in the exchange 
                market that prevents effective balance-of-payments 
                adjustment or that gains an unfair competitive 
                advantage over any other country.
