At the recent IFCBA Board of Directors meeting in Seoul, Korea, an update was provided on proposed changes to the WCO Private Sector Consultative Group (PSCG). The IFCBA has been an active member of the PSCG since it was formed, and IFCBA Secretary Carol West has been its Chair since 2008. One of the proposed changes to the PSCG is that organizations with observer status at the WCO, such as the IFCBA, will no longer be eligible for membership in the PSCG.
In June, the PSCG provided commentary to the WCO Policy Commission on the proposed changes to the PSCG. The PSCG’s suggested changes are reflected in the PSCG Commentary on Changes, June 2014. In addition, the full PSCG report to the Policy Commission is in its PowerPoint presentation.
