NZ hosts international ACTA meeting in April 2010

With the goal of concluding ACTA negotiations next year we’ve just learnt that New Zealand will host an international ACTA meeting in April. The CFF will be joining a new coalition on ACTA focusing initially on bringing more transparency to negotiations, “The treaty has caused concern to a number of organisations and individuals, in New Zealand and internationally, because the content of the negotiations have been kept secret (unlike many similar ‘intellectual property’ treaties)” The Ministry of Economic Development is holding an update meeting on ACTA next Wednesday and we’ll be there.
