Today on the Wire, we start a new segment with Te Pāti Māori. Jemima Huston will speak with co-leader Debbie Ngarewa-Packer each week about the latest political news to hear the Māori Party perspective. This week they discuss National Party MP Paul Goldsmith's comments about colonisation and Te Pāti's call for an investigation into hate speech against Māori. 

Lyric Waiwiri-Smith talks to David Collinge from Red Door about methamphetamine use and stigmatisation in New Zealand.

Jemima talks to University of Auckland Law Professor Jane Kelsey, about some of the mechanisms of trade agreements such as the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership, that could cause problems for the Labour Government’s trade negotiations with the UK. 

Finally, Jemima speaks to Jacinta Beckwith, a research fellow for the University of Otago, about her part in the research undertaken into Maori connections with Antarctica, which were found to date back as far as the 7th century. 

Is Policy Enough? Investor State Dispute Settlement in Foreign Trade Agreements w/ Jane Kelsey: June 16, 2021

Since taking power in 2017, the Labour Government has stood by their policy "Investor State Dispute Settlements (ISDS) in future trade agreements". Including ISDS in an agreement means that foreign investors can sue the government directly for massive compensation when domestic policies impact the success of their brands.

However, under the Comprehensive Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP), of which New Zealand is a partner, the ISDS mechanism is not removed, it is simply suspended. University of Auckland Law Professor and prominent critic of the TPPA and the CPTPP trade agreements, Jane Kelsey has raised concerns that the Labour Government's policy against ISDS is not enough. She says that legislation is necessary to ensure that the policy is not traded off in the negotations for the UK to be a part of the CPTPP and create a bilateral trade agreement with New Zealand and Australia. 

News and Editorial Director Jemima Huston speaks to Jane Kelsey to break down some of the core ideas under this issue. They discuss the origins and purpose of the CPTPP, the problem with ISDS and how the Labour Government's trade agreements with the UK could be impacted by ISDS.
