The Note from the Directorate-General for Trade of the European Commission, forwarding the EC report to the Mission of Sri Lanka in Brussels, stated: “The Commission will now decide whether to propose a temporary withdrawal of the special incentive arrangement for sustainable development and good governance provided for under Council Regulation (EC) No. 732/2008.”
