EU/New Zealand Free Trade Agreement (resolution)

Adopted

457 in favour · 104 against · 74 abstained. 635 members voted.

What it asks for, in the Parliament's words

• Welcomes the agreement, which will create more sustainable free and fair trade opportunities between the EU and New Zealand; calls for the European Parliament to consent to the agreement
• Welcomes the concern about protecting the specific situation of the outermost regions in the Agreement, given that the Agreement affects sensitive products for the economies of those regions
• Welcomes the elimination of tariffs on EU agri-food exports, including key products such as pigmeat (current tariff: 5 %) and wine and sparkling wine (current tariff: 5 %), thereby opening up new business opportunities
