Stakeholders will be able to hear a first-hand update from New Zealand’s Chief Negotiator on progress in key areas of the negotiation as we work towards conclusion of an agreement this year. Officials also plan to hold further dedicated meetings on intellectual property and health- related issues in the negotiation. Dates and venues have yet to be confirmed but we would welcome expressions of interest to attend a stakeholder session or requests for an individual meeting to [email protected] . Please note your specific area of interest in your email to the team. Trans-Pacific Partnership Negotiations Maintain Strong Momentum - From USTR During the 17th round of Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) negotiations, which ended today, officials reported that they continued to forge ahead toward their goal of concluding an ambitious 21st-century agreement in the timeframe envisioned by President Obama and the Leaders of the other ten TPP countries. Through the TPP, the United States is seeking to advance a next-generation trade and investment agreement that will enhance U.S. competitiveness, expand U.S. trade in the Asia-Pacific region, and support the creation and retention of U.S. jobs, while at the same time promoting labor rights, environmental protection, and transparency. In their work during this 10-day round, negotiators were guided by the plan of action agreed by the trade ministers from the United States and the other TPP countries – Australia, Brunei Darussalam, Canada, Chile, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, and Vietnam – when they met last month on the margins of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) meeting in Surabaya, Indonesia. In line with that plan and the direction of ministers to find pragmatic solutions to outstanding issues, the negotiators made progress across the agreement. The negotiating groups covering services, government procurement, sanitary and phytosanitary standards, trade remedies, labor, and dispute settlement moved their work forward significantly. The TPP countries also successfully advanced work on the other legal texts, including technical barriers to trade, e-commerce, rules of origin, investment, financial services, intellectual property, transparency, competition, environment and other issues. On the more challenging issues of intellectual property, competition, and environment, negotiators had productive discussions and agreed on next steps to continue their work. In addition, negotiators made further progress on building the comprehensive packages that will provide access to their respective markets for industrial, agricultural and textile and apparel products, services and investment, and government procurement. They moved forward in constructing tariff packages and rules of origin, reflecting input from stakeholders on how best to promote trade and regional integration that would benefit the companies and workers in the United States and the other TPP countries. The 11 TPP countries discussed plans for smoothly integrating Japan into the TPP negotiations. Japan will join the negotiations following the successful completion of current members’ respective domestic processes. With Japan’s entry, TPP countries will account for nearly 40 percent of global GDP and about one-third of all world trade. Ministers from the TPP countries will continue to engage regularly over the coming months to guide the negotiators’ work, find solutions to outstanding sensitive issues, and ensure that the negotiations achieve the TPP Leaders’ objective of a high-quality, ambitious, and comprehensive agreement this year. Meanwhile, the negotiating teams agreed on detailed intersessional work plans so that the momentum achieved during this week’s round in Lima can be maintained. The 18th round of TPP negotiations will be held in Malaysia from July 15th-25th.

  • UC Campus Developments
    UConnect UC Alumni and Friends Newsletter, July 2013 In this edition: Campus developments UC QS Five Star ranking Innovation and Research Alumni benefits UC Careers Kit Events and more UC campus developments The University of Canterbury, like the rest of Christchurch, is in full recovery mode and is steaming ahead with a range of exciting and significant developments that will place the University in a strong position for the future. We have launched a new marketing campaign, “UC More, Feel More, Do More”, established an innovation hub for students, developed a careers kit to help students envisage their career pathways, and launched a Quake Centre to work with industry on earthquake engineering projects. We’ve seen a record number of PhD students enrol at UC this year and we have retained our QS Five Star ranking. You can read about all of these developments – and more – in this newsletter. The University has also released draft plans for the possible development of the perimeter of the UC campus. There is no guarantee these developments will go ahead as they need to be funded from external sources. However, we are excited by these plans, which could include a UC Research and Industry Zone, an archives facility and a boost to student accommodation at Bishop Julius Hall. The briefing document can be found here. For those of you who have been on campus recently, you will have noticed the extensive refurbishment of the area under the James Hight building. Known as the Undercroft, this area is now a vibrant, sophisticated student lounge with a selection of cafés and retail outlets as well as areas to relax in.

  • Trans Tasman Politics, Legislation, Trade, Economy Now in Its 50Th Year 22 March Issue • 2018 No
    www.transtasman.co.nz Trans Tasman Politics, Legislation, Trade, Economy Now in its 50th year 22 March Issue • 2018 No. 18/2115 ISSN 2324-2930 Comment Tough Week For Ardern If Jacinda Ardern is in the habit of asking herself whether she’s doing a good job at the end of each week, she’ll have had the first one when the answer has probably been no. It has been a week in which she has looked less like a leader than she has at any time so far in her time as head of the Labour Party and then Prime Minister. Jacindamania is fading. The tough reality of weekly politics is taking over. The Party apparatus has dropped her in it – but she seems powerless to get rid of the source of the problem, because while she is Prime Minister, she’s not in charge of the party. The party seems to have asserted its rights to do things its own way, even if this means keeping the PM in the dark about a sex assault claim after an alleged incident at a party function. Even a Cabinet Minister knew and didn’t tell her. This made Ardern look powerless. Her coalition partner, Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Winston Peters also led her a merry dance this week over the Russia Free Trade agreement the two parties agreed to pursue as part of their coalition agree- ment. Peters unfortunately chose a week in which Russia was accused of a deadly nerve agent attack on one of its former spies in Britain to up the ante on pushing the FTA forward.

  • Ardern Set for Second Term Collins's Campaign
    HUGO Assessing the economic and political environmentvision in New Zealand Confidential to October 16 2020 HUGO members Ardern set for second term Page 2 Labour is expected to win a second term in Saturday’s election. Polls show its support remained robust through the final fortnight of the campaign around 47-48%, which would just be enough to deliver 60-62 seats in a 120 seat parliament. National is marooned at around 30%. Collins’s campaign dissolves Page 2 Judith Collins’s hopes of running down Labour in the home straight crumbled into a mess of ineffective campaign appearances and distracting gaffes in the last fortnight. She served only to highlight the yawning gap in popularity between Ardern and everyone else. Her future as leader is unclear. Full coalition or just supply and confidence deal? Page 3 The main point of tension in Saturday night’s result and the ensuing wait for a final result after the counting of special votes will be whether Labour can govern alone and whether Jacinda Ardern wants Labour to govern alone. The polls suggest an atypical one-party-wins result is possible, but the PM may choose John Key-style to form a coalition for coalescing’s sake. Extraordinary early turnout may help Labour Close to two million of the expected turnout of up to 2.8 million voters will already have voted by tonight. Previous election results showed a high early vote was correlated with a slightly higher youth turnout and a higher vote for Labour, with specials helping boost the Greens. RMA, Transport and employment law reform in focus Page 4 A repeal of the Resource Management Act and its replacement with a Natural and Built Environments Act and a Resource Planning Act will be a focus of coalition negotiations, along with the likely shape of employment law reform and planned minimum wage increases.
