No, there has to be implementation, and there has to be carry-through. This is also why we are recommending that there be human rights impact assessments before and after at regular intervals. This is a recommendation of the UN working group on the issue of human rights and transnational corporations. It's also a recommendation of the UN rapporteur on the right to food, for example. We do not have that at present with our free trade agreements. This has to be a necessary component in a free trade agreement. Without it, we should not be moving ahead.
