More than 20 provisions have been suspended or altered in the final text, including rules around intellectual property, since the US withdrawal from the deal.

New Zealand Trade Minister David Parker said that the agreement has become more important because of the growing threats to effective operation of World Trade Organization (WTO) rules.
