摘要

In the past, trade and investment agreements have exposed governments to troubling liability for actions taken in the public interest, and in particular environmental protection. New Generation FTAs attempt to rectify this power imbalance by emphasizing the State's right to regulate, particularizing provisions on environmental protection and sustainable development, and curbing investor rights. Sustainable development is inherendy incorporated into the right to regulate through environmental protection because the latter is one of the three pillars of sustainable development. This interpretation is consistent with the major international cases addressing the right in the context of sustainable development. The incorporation of sustainable development into the right to regulate significandy broadens the legal framework available to the Parties to justify their regulatory measures. Applying this interpretation to CETA shows that the agreement provides ample materials for exercising and justifying the right to regulate in furtherance of sustainable development. However, the Parties must remain vigilant and continue to promote this objective to maximize the protection it enjoys.
