During the meeting, both parties will discuss the positive results of CETA on companies, workers, and farmers across sectors, as well as the implementation of CETA and its ratification in the EU. The CETA Committee will adopt the agreements on the ‘Interpretation on Investment' and additional rules to facilitate SME access to its Investment Court System. Some 2,500 SMEs have begun exporting to Canada thanks to CETA, making the Interpretation on Investment all the more important.
