[ 2 ]  The key principles of the labor and environmental side agreements to the NAFTA are that countries should enforce their own laws and that low or poorly enforced labor and environmental standards should not be used to attract trade or investment. Enforcement relies on consultations with parties levying a complaint of nonenforcement and investigation by the home country government. The wording of the agreements states that no investigation or enforcement may be performed by one country in the territory of another. Instead, the agreements attempt to create public awareness of noncompliance without setting specific standards or encroaching on the sovereignty of national governments.
