Australia’s Trade Minister Andrew Robb is confident that a deal on the proposed Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP) will be finalised in the last week of July 2015, after five years of negotiations. Robb says the nation’s agricultural sector is set to benefit from the TPP, but he adds that the biggest beneficiaries could include service industries such as the legal and education sectors. Robb also expects the mining equipment and services sector to benefit from the deal.
