Particular areas of focus have included matters related to market access for
goods, services/investment, financial services, and government procurement as
well as the texts covering intellectual property, competition, and
environmental issues. We also discussed the remaining outstanding issues on
labor, dispute settlement, and other areas.

This meeting of TPP Ministers has

offer guidance to negotiators and help drive the negotiations to conclusion on
the 2013 timeframe instructed by our Leaders. We discussed how best to achieve

balanced 21st-century agreement that will enhance trade and investment among us,
promote innovation, economic growth and development, and support the creation
and retention of jobs in our countries.
