The point about investor-state dispute resolution is that it is only one of several issues to be resolved. Other outstanding issues include, for example, the terms of access for Australian agricultural product. Should that be disregarded? Should we not persist in talking about terms of access for agricultural products? Is that the view of the National Party, that this should not be a concern of the Australian government? On the contrary; it is the view of the Australian trade minister that that should be pursued. (Time expired)
