Dear Mr. Chairman and members of the Tribunal,

Pursuant to paragraph 19 of the Confidentiality Order dated March 27, 2013, Canada requests that the Tribunal amend the Confidentiality Order to make clear that the non-disputing NAFTA Parties – the United States and Mexico – have the right to attend hearings and access transcripts of hearings. Specifically, Canada requests that the Tribunal amend paragraphs 14 and 16 of the Confidentiality Order to allow the non-disputing NAFTA Parties:

1. unrestricted access to the transcripts for the jurisdictional hearing of March 20 and 21, 2014 and any future hearings, on request; and

2. the right to attend any future hearings and, upon request, to make oral submissions on matters of interpretation of NAFTA.

Canada also requests that the Tribunal amend Procedural Order No. 3, paragraph 31 to reflect the above.
