Investor-state Dispute Settlement. One of the major grounds for concern around the TPPA is that foreign investors could sue the New Zealand government for compensation in secretive international tribunals over new laws or policies which they claim would significantly hurt their investments. This would mean that foreign banks, insurance companies and money traders from the other 10 countries — especially the US — could challenge new financial regulations introduced to defend the New Zealand economy from speculation. No Effective Exceptions The past experience of some TPPA countries makes them very nervous about restrictions on capital controls and they have proposed limited exceptions and emergency powers allowing their use. The United States opposes these exceptions, even in a balance of payments emergency. Despite deregulation, New Zealand still has some legal capacity to protect ourselves in a financial crisis, and we should not trade this away. Our government is elected by New Zealanders to look after our interests, and it should not have to answer to transnational corporations for introducing measures designed to protect and grow our economy. “Does the TPPA sound like something New Zealand should be a part of?” Act now! • Email the Prime Minister9 • Sign the petition10 • Spread the news11 Links:

If still not resolved the delegate or site xxxxxxx shall refer the matter to an appropriate official of the union, who shall discuss the matter with the nominated representative of the Enterprise. If still not resolved there may be discussions between the state secretary and senior management representative. Whilst the above procedures are being followed work should continue as normal. This procedure is to be followed in good faith and without unreasonable delay by any party.
