If the losing Member fails to bring its measure into conformity with its (WTO) obligations within the reasonable period of time, the prevailing complainant is entitled to resort to temporary measures, which can be either compensation or the suspension of WTO obligations, as discussed below. Neither of these temporary measures is preferred to full implementation of DSB recommendations and rulings (Articles 3.7 and 22.1 of the DSU).
