The Australian Government has secured three free trade agreements (FTAs), with China, Japan and South Korea. Trade Minister Andrew Robb says he is very keen to add India to that list, and will continue a series of talks on such a deal during 2015 that started in 2011. He concedes that there are significant hurdles, especially in the areas of agriculture and foreign investment, but notes that the same applied to the China FTA when those negotiations began. Some 450 business leaders from 14 Australian industries are currently visiting India with Robb
