This step was agreed upon as early as at the creation of the World Trade Organization in 1995; however, it had been largely ignored by the broader public after the spectacular failure of the WTO ministerial conference in Seattle in December of 1999. Nevertheless, a large number of WTO members, among them a majority of Developing Countries, have tabled detailed and far-reaching demands.
