Professor Jane Kelsey and Dr Bill Rosenberg discussed this topic at a Fabian seminar in Wellington on March 29th. You can view their presentations here and here.

More up-to-date information including protests at the latest round of discussions in Dallas can be found here in the latest issue of TPPWatch.
