Collective Request Process At the December 2005 WTO Hong Kong Ministerial, Ministers decided that groups of like-minded countries should develop common or “collective” requests to provide a kick-start to the previously sleepy services talks, and submit them to the countries whose markets they seek to access. The deadline for doing that was February 28, 2006 and more than 20 such “collective requests” have been tabled.
