Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, how many Investor-State Dispute Settlement cases involving the UK (a) are ongoing, (b) have been settled and (c) have been concluded.

The UK has 77 BITs with Investor-State Dispute Settlement (ISDS) provisions. The Government is defending two active arbitrations, neither of which have been settled or concluded. The Government has acted consistently with domestic and international law obligations. In view of the ongoing proceedings, it would be inappropriate for the Government to comment further at this stage.
