【摘要】 2003年6月29日,中华人民共和国商务部副部长安民与香港特别行政区(以下简称“香港”)前财政司司长梁锦松共同签署的《内地与香港关于建立更紧密经贸关系的安排》(以下简称CEPA)文本及有关磋商纪要,为两地经济整合提供了制度保障,并为两岸四地经济一体化提供了一个现实的范例,但也提出了若干法律问题,尤其是CEPA的定性、CEPA与WTO的关系等。因此,在WTO框架下对CEPA法律问题进行全面研究已成为时代需要。 以WTO为核心的多边贸易体制和以欧盟为代表的区域经贸一体化并行发展、交互作用是当今世界经济的重要特征。CEPA作为WTO框架下的一种区域经贸安排,顺应了世界经济发展潮流和两地经贸发展趋势,迈出了中国建立自由贸易区的第一步;CEPA就有关货物贸易的关税与非关税措施、服务贸易自由化和贸易投资便利化等内容进行了规范。 CEPA的签署是香港独特法律地位的体现,根据“一国两制”的原则和1984年《中英联合声明》以及全国人大1990年通过的《中华人民共和国香港特别行政区基本法》,香港在回归祖国后享有高度自治权;由于香港独特的历史地位,日益增长的经济实力和国际交往能力、国际社会对其地位的认同和我国的特殊国策,香港在国际法上具有自成一类的法律地位,并和内地一样是同为WTO平等成员。 由于CEPA文本的内容与传统自由贸易协议具有相似性并有超越,以及由于香港在国际法上的特殊地位,笔者认为,CEPA是在中国加入WTO后,内地和香港同为WTO平等成员的形势下签署的具有自由贸易协议性质的法律文件;从另一个角度看,由于两地同属一个主权国家即中华人民共和国,香港仅为我国的一个特殊的地方行政区域,因此,CEPA又具有区际协议的性质;在实施中我们应区分CEPA的这种看似矛盾的性质,针对不同情况对其予以区别对待,以便更好的实现签署CEPA的预期目标。更多还原

【Abstract】 The Closer Economic Partnership Arrangement (Hereinafter referred to as " CEPA ") , as well as the relevant synopsis of consultation, was signed by the central government of the People’s Republic of China and the government of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (Hereinafter referred to as " Hong Kong ") on June 29 , 2003. It has offered an example for establishing the economic integration modes between the following regions: Mainland of China, Hong Kong Tai Wan and Macao, and become the primay concerns of scholars and other relavant parties in trade and business. Up to now, some achievements are made in this field, but from the leagal perspective, the overall research on CEPA under the frame of WTO has been rare.The contemporary world economy is mainly characteristiced with the multilateral trade system with WTO as the core and the regional economic and trade integration represented by European Union, both of which walk abreast and interact. CEPA complies with the development trend of world economy as well as that of economy and trand between two regions such as the mainland of China and Hong Kong. As a kind of regional economic and trade arrangement under the frame of WTO, CEPA has standardized the relevant contents such as the tariff and non-tariff measures of trade in goods, the liberalization of trade in service, and the convenience of trade investment. It will inevitably promote the development of the trading relationship between two regions mentioned above.The signature of CEPA is the embodiment of the unique legal status of Hong Kong of China after its return to China. According to " one country, two systems " policy and "Basic Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China" passed by National People’s Congress in 1990 andSino-British joint statements in 1984, Hong Kong enjoys a highly autonomous status after its return to China. Just because of its special status in our country, Hong Kong enjoys some special leagal rights that is endowed by the international law concerned, and it is also considered, like the mainland of China, as an independent member of WTO.According to the content of CEPA as well as the special subjectivity of Hong Kong, CEPA carries some features of an agreement concerning the regional free trade; On the other hand, since the above two regions belong to one independent sovereignty, that is, the People’s Republic of China, CEPA also has the nature of the inter-regional agreement.With regard to the relation between CEPA and WTO, CEPA is established on the basis of fully taking advantage of the exception of WTO rules. The implementation of CEPA must be taken in accordance with the relevant regulations of WTO rules for the regional economic and trade arrangements, and CEPA has to accept the examinationand supervision of WTO. Meanwhile, the setting-up of CEPA will place an important influence on both the theory and practice of WTO rules regarding the cooperation in the regional economy and trade, and the arrangements of the rights and obligations between WTO members.The contents of CEPA, such as rules of origin, service provider, the mode of the dispute settlement and specific guarantee measures are relatively perfect, but in order to more effectively implement CEPA, to promote the fast, sound and continuous development of the trading relations between these two regions, and to prevent from the possible disputes with other members of WTO, We need perfect these regulations further.更多还原
