Childers demands removal of controversial dispute settlement clause from TTIP talks

The Independent MEP Nessa Childers is demanding the removal of a controversial clause from the EU-US trade talks. The European Parliament postponed a debate and a vote this morning on the EU’s negotiating position on the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership talks known as TTIP.  MEPs are divided over whether or not a controversial investor protection clause known as an ISDS [Investor State Dispute Settlement] should be included in the agreement. Nessa Childers is one of the MEPs who wants it removed entirely from the talks.
