Government response to Non-Tariff Barriers to Trade Perspectives. In December 2023, the Parliamentary Standing Committee on International Trade (CIIT) published a report titled “Non-tariff Barriers to Trade: Some Canadian Perspectives.” The report identified barriers to trade for specific industries and business communities, and put forward a number of recommendations to remove non-tariff trade barriers in free tree agreement negotiations, including by: Removing non-tariff barriers that particularly affect small- and medium-sized businesses; Ensuring that dispute resolution mechanisms exist in agreements and are actually enforced; Harmonizing regulations, in particular for hard-hit industries such as agriculture and automotive; Monitoring imports of food imports at the border to ensure reciprocity of standards exists and is not only a theoretical objective; Preserving Canada’s right to legislate for the common good. #barrrierstotrade #tariffs #agriculture #automotive #foodimports https://lnkd.in/gh7wzYQn

Really good webinar coming up for those of you in the food & drink sector!

Looking forward to hosting this #webinar on #globaltrade oportunities and challenges in the #foodanddrink sector next week, featuring experts from The Food and Drink Federation, Associated British Foods plc, The International Meat Trade Association and SamosaCo. With #BTOM (Border Target Operating Model) changes on the way, as well as ongoing #supplychain disruption due to #shipping crises in the #RedSea and #PanamaCanal, it's an important time to be running this webinar. I suspect #supplychainresilience will be a key theme, as well as ensuring businesses on both sides of the Channel are ready for new #import rules on goods entering Britain.

IESC’s USDA Food for Progress-funded Trade–Facilitating Agricultural Systems and Technology (Proyecto T-FAST) project supported the General Customs Administration of the National Tax Revenue Directorate of Paraguay in a four-week training course for thirty-five officials. The management training empowered leaders in the Customs Administration to work as a team through efficient coordination to achieve organizational goals and accomplish objectives. The T-FAST project works to strengthen public and private institutions linked to international trade, ensuring the success of trade facilitation in Paraguay. Since the launch of the T-FAST project in 2019, technical assistance and support have improved and facilitated Customs processes and procedures through the National Trade Facilitation Committee (NTFC) working groups. The success of Paraguay’s Authorized Economic Operator (AEO) program highlights T-FAST’s work with Customs. Paraguay’s AEO program now serves as a regional benchmark and improved standard of trade facilitation. The AEO Program is open to the entire logistics chain, an example of collaboration by public institutions linked to foreign trade. To date, eighteen operators have been certified and ten additional operators are in the certification process. #USDA #TFAST
