Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills, what proportion of investor-state dispute settlements which (a) the Government and (b) another UK public body has been involved in resulted in a (i) tribunal ruling in favour of the Government or public body, (ii) ruling in favour of an investor, (iii) settlement resulting in a cash payment from the Government or another public body and (iv) settlement resulting in a change of policy, regulation or law in each year since 1997.

Neither the Government nor any other UK public body have been involved in any investor-state dispute settlement claims that have either had a tribunal ruling or reached any settlement since 1997 under our entire network of bilateral and multilateral investment protection agreements.
