                                    | The Ministerial Conference is the highest authoritative body 
of the World Trade Organization under the governance structure set up by the “Agreement establishing 
the WTO.”  This agreement calls for a single 
institutional framework encompassing the GATT, as modified by the Uruguay Round, 
all agreements and arrangements concluded under its auspices and the complete 
results of the Uruguay Round. Its structure is headed by a Ministerial 
Conference meeting at least once every two years. |   The World Trade Organization |
