New ACTA text leaked

KEI obtained a copy of the latest ACTA text following the Washington round of negotiations on 25 August. The US was the only country to refuse an official publication. You find a transcrit here.

While there is maximum consensus in Chapters 3, 4, 5 and 6, numerous
bracketed portions remain in every section of the enforcement chapter,
and issues pertaining to scope are still highly significant. Note also
the addition of a Preamble to the agreement. Parties are reportedly
aiming to conclude text-based negotiations this month during a round of
talks in Tokyo at the end of September.
