The United Nations Conference on Trade and Employment (Havana, Cuba, November 1947-March 1948) drew up a charter for an International Trade Organization (ITO) and established an Interim Commission for the International Trade Organization (ICITO). The charter of ITO was never accepted, but the Conference’s Preparatory Committee members negotiated tariffs among themselves and drew up the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT), which entered into force on 1 January 1948. Since then, ICITO has served as the GATT secretariat.
