Consultation delivers negative orchestrated feedback on ISDS

Areas to improve

On the basis of the consultation’s results, the Commission identified “four areas where further improvements should be explored”: the protection of the right to regulate; the establishment and functioning of arbitral tribunals; the relationship between ISDS arbitration and domestic remedies; and the review of ISDS decisions for legal correctness through an appellate mechanism. It also reiterated its intention to “further consult”on the ISDS' “core issues” with a view to  developing “concrete proposals for the TTIP talks”.
