Having looked at the obstacles we can look at the other side of the coin and consider the elements that enable developing countries to access developed country markets
Till now, the main focus, whether it has been called trade facilitation or market access, have concentrated on the bottom three elements.
Then explicit talk about the top three

4. TBT /SPS Theory and Practice (Jan 1995)
INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS
Product standards (bottled water, baby food)
Engineering Standards – Whitworth Thread
Environmental standard (car emissions USA/ EU)
Food safety Standards ( e.g. frozen chicken -20c USA EU diff )
Technical Regulations
Safety standards - CE Mark
Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs)
Laboratory Testing ISO 17025
TBT – Agreement on Technical Barriers to Trade
SPS – Agreement on Application of Sanitary & Phytosanitary Measures
MARKET COMPLIANCE- Standards, Metrology, Conformity

5. Management Systems- Becoming Standards
MARKET COMPLIANCE- Standards, Metrology, Testing, Conformity
Management Systems- Becoming Standards
Quality Management System (ISO 9000)
Environment Management System (ISO 14000)
HACCP
CE Marking - EU Safety mark
SA 8000 – Social Accountability Standard

6. METROLOGY & CALIBRATION ESSENTIAL FOR:
Scientific Metrology
Industrial Metrology
Legal Metrology
Calibration
METROLOGY & CALIBRATION ESSENTIAL FOR:
Science & Technology development
Basic Research
Precision manufacture
Laboratory accreditation

7. Product Testing LABORATORIES REQUIRED
MARKET COMPLIANCE- Standards, Metrology, Testing, Conformity
Product Testing
Food - microbiological contamination, fat content
Textiles- pesticide residue, banned dyes, colour
Steel - tensile strength
Electrical cable - safety
Health - X-Ray nano-second, blood tests- cc/mg
LABORATORIES REQUIRED
Microbiology
Chemical
Industrial Metrology
ACCEPTABILITY OF TEST CERTIFICATE??
LABORATORY ACCREDITATION – ISO 17025

10. EU- Trade Related Technical Assistance Strengthening Standards and Quality Infrastructure
Capacity Constraints in Pakistan
Limited awareness of TBT/SPS in the private sector
No Internationally Recognized Accreditation Body
Ineffective Standard development and dissemination
Gaps in Metrology parameters and trace ability
Testing capacity insufficient & not internationally Recognized.
Microbiology, chemical, textile, fisheries etc.
Need for Accredited testing laboratories
Certifications to ISO14000, SA8000, HACCP for Enterprises
