Protectionism

Put that Renault had moved 400 jobs from Slovenia back to France and was the Prime Minister concerned that his message on protectionism was falling on deaf ears, the PMS said he wouldn’t comment in detail on any particular moves by a foreign commercial organisation and how it ran its workforce. The Prime Minister, as set out recently, was determined that both the EU and the G20 would reaffirm their commitment to free trade and to ensuring that not only tariff barriers but non-tariff barriers were monitored to ensure that a free trade environment existed to allow global business to expand.

Asked if there was any clarity on who would be monitoring tariff barriers and non-tariff barriers, the PMS advised people to wait for the European Council to publish its conclusions. There were a whole range of discussions going forward to the G20 meeting on the 2nd April where this would also be discussed.
