Context
Inquiry about the economic impact of FTAs on Blyth Valley, including companies like Dräger Safety and Tharsus.
What assessment has been made of the potential effect of future free trade agreements on the economy in Blyth Valley?
FTAs will secure and protect existing trade, and our analysis shows they will bring additional export opportunities to every part of the country, including Blyth Valley. My team is developing a new export strategy that aligns DIT support with FTA work, and an enhanced network of international trade advisers in the northern powerhouse will also support companies.
