    GTPC17112025
    8 Dec 2025

    As mentioned on the last GTPC call, the next UNTDG meeting will take place in Geneva next Monday 24th onwards. You will recall that we have already submitted a paper answering questions raised during the last UN meetings and advocating for a change to the Special Provision 142 (attached).  You have seen this document which has already been submitted in August and will be presented on Monday next week at the UNTDG.

    Action- draft INF paper - GAFTA also agreed to provide test data that evaluates microbial activity in seedcake with variable moisture contents. This testing will stop today after 60 days and graphs will be prepared.  I am now sharing the draft INF paper which includes  the written text but note the graphs will only be added later this week as testing is just finishing today.

    Please can you review the content of the paragraphs in the attached INF paper (draft) to see if any changes are required to the text.  Deadline Wednesday 19th November 2024 COB CET to junearnold@gafta.com after which the document will be submitted.

    The final version of the INF paper including the graphs/test data will be shared as soon as possible.
