– will result in a “lack of a level playing field” between Scottish and New Zealand farmers, according to Rural Affairs Minister Mairi Gougeon and Trade Minister Ivan McKee.
And by the 15th year of the deal, the UK Government will increase the quantity of beef imports to 60,000 tonnes – and then remove any cap on beef imports from New Zealand after that. Meanwhile, the EU will limit imports to 10,000 tonnes and apply a 7.5% tariff. They also urged the UK Government to outline “what mitigations and compensation it will put in place for economic sectors and communities that suffer as a result” of the agreement.
