Chapter 6 demonstrates the diversity of dispute settlement provisions, and considers the rules concerning standing to resort to dispute settlement. It assesses whether by agreeing to treaty clauses on dispute settlement or compliance oversight mechanisms treaty parties have contracted out of countermeasures in the form of suspending compliance with obligations in the treaty breached, as well as with international obligations outside the treaty breached in response to breaches of treaty obligations regarding transit of energy.
