Trans-Pacific Partnership Negotiations Held in New Zealand

Sean Heather, Executive Director of the Chamber's Global Regulatory Cooperation project, attended this week's 4th round of Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) negotiations in Auckland, New Zealand. At the invitation of the New Zealand government, he gave a series of presentations on the importance of better addressing regulatory and other behind-the-border barriers as part of the TPP commitment to advance regulatory coherence. Regulatory coherence is one of a series of horizontal issues which are stated policy priorities unique to these negotiations. In addition, he met with the negotiators on a bilateral basis to discuss a variety of issues, including issues of due process in antitrust investigations and disciplines on anti-competitive behavior of SOEs.
