This question was answered on 28th October 2014
The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) offers an enormous economic prize, worth up to £400 for each household in the UK through lower prices, and £10bn to our economy as a whole in jobs and investment. The eighth negotiating round will be held later this year. We are making progress and our ambition remains to agree a deal next year.
