Abstract

The application of Non-Tariff Measures (NTMs) and non-automatic import licensing schemes has been a source of intense debate to date. This case study research assessed the consistency of the implementation of the Namibian Horticultural Market Share Promotion Scheme (MSPS) under the Import Licensing Agreement of the World Trade Organisation (WTO). A Likert scale was used to gauge sentiments on the level of compliance regarding the exceptions enriched in the Agreement, while a reliability test was conducted with the use of SPSS Software to measure the credibility of responses. The chapter further identified problems associated with the administration of the Scheme, and proposed recommendations that are viewed to be responsive to competitive challenges facing industries in the 21st century. The chapter concluded that despite some setbacks, the scheme is generally well accepted in the business community and is compatible with most provisions of the WTO Agreement on Import Licensing Procedures. However, the chapter painted a bleak picture pertaining to the transparency thereof.
