The legal clause which could allow Adani to sue Australia

17 December 2018: AFTINET convener Dr Patricia Ranald writes [1] in the Guardian on the risk that Adani could sue our government for millions through Investor-State Dispute Settlement (ISDS), should their mining licence be cancelled by a future government. 

Yet another example of why Labor should implement its policy against ISDS in all trade agreements, and remove it from current deals like the TPP.
