In addition to the Amber Box, WTO rules provide for de minimis support. This support is not included in the Amber Box provided it is below a certain threshold. Comrades, why am I explaining this? Under South Africa's current commitments as a developed country, this threshold is approximately 10% of the gross value of its production. The available amount under this provision can be as much as R9 billion per year that may be used for price and production distorting support.
