Question to the Department for International Trade:
To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, what recent discussions he has had with the WTO.
I have had a number of constructive discussions with the Director General of the World Trade Organization (WTO), Roberto Azevedo, including a recent face-to-face meeting and I will have many more such meetings. He has been very supportive of the UK’s position.
I have also met Ministers and Permanent Representatives from a broad cross-section of WTO Members.
