Abstract
The good health of its population is fundamental to a country’s national interest. Regulation of these risk factors, however, presents particular challenges in the light of international trade law and international investment law, as policy interventions often seek behavioural change including lower consumption of particular goods. Drawing on the legal challenges to Australia’s plain tobacco packaging laws, this paper considers the obligations applicable to NCD risk factor regulation under international trade and investment law and explores some of the options available to protect regulatory autonomy in trade and investment treaties.
