Yes, I can, Senator Sterle. Our trade agreements with the United Kingdom and India are helping Australian exporters. A range of Australian exports to the United Kingdom are benefiting from lower UK trade barriers, including beef, chocolate, confectionary, honey, sheepmeat, aluminium, motor vehicles and medical devices. Since the entry into force of the trade deal with India, around 85 per cent of Australian goods exported, by value, now enter India duty free. Australians are expected to save about $200 million annually in import duties paid on UK goods. Both the United Kingdom and India trade agreements are supporting Australian jobs and helping with cost-of-living pressures for Australian families. This government's trade agenda is delivering for all Australians.
