Subject:
Report of meeting with CCBE on MIC of 23.11.2017
COM (
) provided an update of the latest developments regarding
the multilateral investment court project since June 2017 (previous meeting with them). COM touched
upon EU internal developments including finalisation of IAR, adoption of Commission Recommendation
and Council discussions, discussions foreseen in EP and EESC as well as with stakeholders. COM also
explained foreseen events in UNCITRAL in light of the decision to work on ISDS reform and the
preparation of first meeting of WG III.
CCBE sought clarifications on the UNCITRAL process and how it links to the EU internal developments.
Some CCBE members appear in favour of gathering views of arbitrators and counsels on the Multilateral
Investment Court initiative, with a view to transmit them to COM.
Kind regards,
European Commission
