Mr. Verheul, page 12 of the summary states, under services and investment, “Recognition of governments' right to regulate and right to sovereign control over the development of natural resources.” That's as you've talked about, but later on it states, “Binding of future autonomous liberalization (i.e. the “ratchet”—whenever a government liberalizes, that level of liberalization is locked in).”
Can you give me some examples of the kinds of things that will be locked in once the government liberalizes? Can you tell me, does that mean those services can never be brought back within the public sphere or regulated in the same way again?
