Meat industry concerned at reports of 'poor' EU access offer

From Morning Report, 8:46 am on 1 June 2022

The meat sector believes the European Union may not be a land of milk and honey when it comes to New Zealand beef and lamb exports.

The sector is concerned at reports of a "poor quality" access offer being made to negotiators from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade.

There may not be a lot of time to sort it out as the agreement is supposed to be signed off by the end of June.

Meat Industry Association chief executive Sirma Karapeeva spoke to Corin Dann.
