	uin	30173
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/03/2016 answer text <p>The UK is signatory to over 90 bilateral investment treaties (BITs). The objective of the BITs is to provide protection to investors against actions from the host state (whether the UK or the other party) that comprise unfair or discriminatory treatment of investors rather than to facilitate investment. Fair, non-discriminatory and proportionate action taken by a host state, including to protect human rights, would not breach an investment protection and as such, it is unlikely that a BIT could be invoked by an investor in a way that is detrimental to human rights. The Government is not aware of any investor-state dispute settlement claims made by UK investors under existing BITs that have led directly to or contributed towards a negative impact on human rights.</p> answering member constituency Broxtowe answering member printed Anna Soubry question first answered 16/03/2016 16:44:12 answering member 3938 label Biography information for Anna Soubry
