Tim Groser: former Trade Minister 'encouraged' by Government outlining future trade plan

A former Trade Minister says he's very encouraged by National's election promise that it'll pursue trade talks with seven economies. It says it would prioritise trade talks with Brazil, Switzerland, Argentina, Bangladesh, Nigeria, Uruguay and the European Free Trade Association. It's also promised to advance negotiations with a further six countries over the next decade. Tim Groser says if you don't aim high, you achieve low.  "It's possible - and even if they fall short, it's certainly going to set the direction of travel."
