More TPP documents leaked, Aus position unclear
Following more leaked TPP documents, Peter Martin publishes the article ‘Leaked memo shows steep concessions for Pacific trade deal’ in the Sydney Morning Herald. The leaked documents, published by The Huffington Post and WikiLeaks, are a memo and spreadsheet prepared by negotiators from one of the 12 nations attempting to reach agreement. They show that “Australia has begun working behind the scenes with the US and Japan to reintroduce rejected clauses that would give US drug companies greater influence over the decisions of other nations.”
