The Union Cabinet chaired by the Prime Minister has given its approval for signing the Joint Interpretative Declaration (JID) between India and Colombia.
The agreement was signed between them in November 2009 for the promotion and protection of investments between India and Colombia
The JID will help to impart clarity on interpretation of existing agreement as it includes interpretative notes to be jointly adopted for many clauses.
Generally JIDs play an important supplementary role in strengthening investment treaty regime. Issuance of such statements will have strong persuasive value before arbitration tribunals.
