The future of informatics in nursing practice
What is your vision for the future of informatics in nursing practice? NB: I want you to customize my future informatics vision in nursing practice base on three Factors: 1) Health care cost reduction for poor people because million people still unable to afford health insurance to get access to a primary care physician. 2) Decrease nursing workload because with nursing informatics today nurses spend more time in the computer while bedside care stays the same. 3) Increase budget for adequate equipment or supplies because a lot of health care settings still struggle to provide even computers for their staff.

As a result of this expansion, the pressure points created where the investment regime comes into conflict with environmental regulation have also multiplied. These encounters, and the responses to them generated by the Investor State Dispute Settlement (ISDS) process, have led to public concern, resistance, and, with little recourse for locally affected actors to weigh in on these decision-making processes, frustration.
The foremost forum for NGOs in this activity is ISDS, and their tool the amicus curiae brief. In ISDS, the first amicus curiae applications arose under NAFTA. These first requests were made in 2000 by an international sustainable development NGO to the tribunal in Methanex v United States. Briefly, third party involvement was not contemplated, at the time, either in NAFTA or under the rules under which the dispute was proceeding (UNCITRAL), so the Methanex tribunal’s eventual decision to accept the submissions was path-breaking. Several subsequent NAFTA arbitrations saw non-disputing parties apply to make amicus curiae submissions. In UPS v Canada, several months after the initial Methanex ruling regarding the admission in principle of third party submissions, the Canadian Union of Postal Workers and the Council of Canadians applied both to be added as parties to the proceedings and, failing that, to be permitted to make submissions. Both requests were denied.
