These so-called SPS (sanitary and phytosanitary) and TBT (technical barriers to trade) notifications refer for example to changes in national dairy standards. WTO members can usually submit comments within a period of 60 days to react to the changes. In this context, Eucolait has the opportunity to contribute to the comments submitted by the EU.
