Written Question
Trade Agreements: Australia
Thursday 15th July 2021

Asked by: Dean Russell (Conservative - Watford)

Question to the Department for International Trade:

What recent assessment she has made of the potential benefits of the free trade deal with Australia for the East of England.

Answered by Greg Hands

More than 1,600 East of England firms exported to Australia in 2020. A removal of tariffs on the East of England’s key exports to Australia in life sciences, clothing and motor industry can create more opportunities for businesses in the region.

Cutting red tape and aligning standards could also support growth in exports of life sciences.
