Coalition blocks Senate from secret details of Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal

Coalition blocks Senate from secret details of Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal

 Sinister Trade Agreement the Abbott & Co government wants to sign, practically selling out Australia to Big Corporations which then will be able to sue Australia as is the case with big tobacco Companies

       -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The government has refused the Senate access to the secret text of the trade deal it is negotiating in Singapore, saying it will only be made public after it has been signed.
As the final round of ministerial talks on the Trans-Pacific Partnership resumed on Sunday, Nobel prize-winning economist Joseph Stiglitz wrote to each of the 12 participating nations warning that the deal and the secrecy surrounding it presented ''grave risks''.
