Ratification of the ISDS Provisions in CETA – Current Court and Legislative Challenges – an Overview
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This article considers the recent rejection of challenges to the ratification of the Comprehensive Economic Trade Agreement with Canada (CETA), by both the German Constitutional Court in March 2022, the Irish High Court and the Irish Supreme Court decision in November 2022, and the likely future path towards ratification. It considers the background to these court challenges, including the request from the Kingdom of Belgium to the Court of Justice of the EU (CJEU) on the compatibility of the ISDS provisions of CETA with EU law, the underlying themes in the German and Irish court challenges, and the position on ratification across other countries in the EU. It concludes that the path to ratification is unclear and that the EU may be forced in the future to adopt a split model to any Free Trade Agreement with Canada.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
