ACIL Consulting prepared a report on the potential free trade agreement for the Rural Industries Research and Development Corporation. (21) The report found far fewer potential benefits of a possible agreement than the CIE study. In accordance with Article 17.2.7, interested parties have the possibility to request the refusal or repeal of a geographical indication. In accordance with Article 17.2.12(b)(v), information must be rejected on the grounds that it is likely to create confusion with an existing trade mark or in good faith until a trade mark is registered. Current legislation does not meet these requirements. The agreement establishes, among other things, rules for the settlement of disputes between members of the telecommunications industry in one country with members of the other. It gives businesses the right: the first meeting of the Joint Committee took place on 6 March 2006. The committees and working groups are expected to meet in 2006 and a review of the implementation of the chapter on government procurement is expected to take place by January 2007. The Joint Committee is expected to meet in 2007. The objective of the Safeguard Measures section of the Agreement is to define an agreed structure to protect the serious adverse effects on each country`s domestic industry during the transition period following the lifting of customs duties. Countries also agree to consider excluding imports from the other country from the application of WTO global safeguard measures if such imports are not a major cause of injury to the domestic industry. (ii) has the agreement of the owner of the property to that person, which shall be submitted to the committee in accordance with Article 40 of the ZZ. Following the signing of the free trade agreement, there were initial fears that the U.S.

agricultural sector would put pressure on the agreement, fearing that it would harm the government`s agricultural subsidy program. However, the deal, which restricts imports of Australian agricultural products such as beef and sugar cane, has eased concerns in the US agricultural market (while many Australian producers have been heavily frustrated). However, there may be many more opportunities to make such changes, particularly in the area of intellectual property. Failure to take these data into account could indicate that the implementation of AUSFTA must be ensured before 1 January 2005. However, given the complexity of the law and the nature of the changes it requires (and, of course, the long-term nature of the agreement itself), this is the type of legislation that could be referred to a Senate legislative committee for review. These process issues could be taken into account in future bilateral trade negotiations, possibly along the model of the approach taken by the U.S. Congressional Trade Promotion Authority, which provides for much greater involvement of the legislator in all stages of negotiation and implementation. .
