The councils have now spread worldwide and business leaders have been quick to see their advantages. They provide a forum for business diplomacy and dialogue, allowing business people in different countries to communicate and to build the environment and relationships which precede trade. This is particularly useful in new and complex markets where there are wide differences in customs, culture, philosophy and ideology, business practices and procedures as well as language barriers, between the trading parties. Business councils have considerable status and are valued contributors to governments’ international strategies. Governments use them as vehicles to promote debate on international issues affecting business such as tariffs and trade reform.

The request stemmed from concerns that Australian and New Zealand firms were having difficulty achieving the minimum content threshold set down under the CER. The Commission’s final report recommended that the CER rules of origin, which confine access to trade concessions to goods produced in Australia or New Zealand, should be liberalised.

About Otago Administration Contacts Studying at Otago ... Dare to be Wise Advance Australia Fair? By Dr John Knight, Department of Marketing 27th June 2005 Dr John Knight Department of Marketing When apple trade lobbyists Apple Action Group marched on Parliament this week to protest against an 85-year-old trade ban of New Zealand apples to Australia it wasn't just apples on their mind. The Apple Action Group took a stand against what they see as injustice and political inaction and questioned how far New Zealand will go in pursuing the issue at the World Trade Organisation. It's a fight that has been raging for nearly a century, fuelled by Australia's obstinate approach. The fight began in 1921 when Australia imposed a ban on the import of New Zealand apples after the disease fire blight, caused by a bacterium, Erwinia amylovora, was found on New Zealand plants. The disease which is spread by wind, rain, insects and birds causes infected flowers to droop, wither and die. As a result, infected apple flowers do not become mature apple fruit. In addition to apples, the disease can occur on pears, quince, loquats and several garden plants such as cotoneaster, hawthorn and mount ash. The spread of the disease from North America (where it is native) to other countries has occurred via nursery propagative material.

About Otago Administration Contacts Studying at Otago ... Dare to be Wise Australia seeks unfair advantage By Dr John Knight, Department of Marketing 7th July 2005 Dr John Knight Department of Marketing Australia's new agriculture minister, Peter McGauran, seems to need educating about the spirit and intent of the CER agreement. Perhaps our Government should send him a possum-skin-covered copy for bedtime reading. Mr McGauran has been quoted this week as going "on the offensive" over McCain Foods supplying McDonalds in Australia with New Zealand potatoes. Furthermore, he warned of a "disturbing trend for the two dominant supermarkets (Woolworths and Coles Myer) to use cheap imports for their house brands rather than Australian products". Does Mr McGauran not realise that Australian-owned Progressive Enterprises has a 45 per cent market share of the New Zealand supermarket sector? New Zealand supermarkets are brimming with Australian produce, which is reflected in the enormous trade imbalance between the two countries. According to Australian figures, Australia exported A$3.563 ($3.912) billion more to New Zealand than it imported from New Zealand last year. This shows the gross unfairness of Mr McGauran's "Buy Australian" calls, which amount to a non-tariff trade barrier.

Examples in this article use data for the year ended December 1999. New Zealand Harmonised System Classification The United Nations recommends the use of the Harmonised System (HS) as the primary commodity classification for the collection, compilation and dissemination of international merchandise trade statistics. The New Zealand Harmonised System Classification (NZHSC) is the predominant output classification for merchandise trade data in New Zealand. Overseas trade data is supplied to the New Zealand Customs Service by exporters, importers or their agents, and subsequently to Statistics New Zealand, under the nomenclature of “Tariff of New Zealand” (also known as the Customs Tariff). Statistics New Zealand edits the data and translates it into the New Zealand Harmonised System Classification (NZHSC) for output purposes.

Australia is also the key destination and source when it comes to direct investment. Japan, the United States of America (USA), the European Union (EU) and the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) are also important economic partners for New Zealand. This article focuses on current account transactions. Australia is New Zealand’s most significant trading partner In 1983 New Zealand and Australia signed the ANZCERTA (Australia New Zealand Closer Economic Relations Trade Agreement). This agreement, which was reviewed in 1988, provided for the reduction and eventual removal of trade barriers between the two countries. This economic relationship between Australia and New Zealand remains a vital one from New Zealand’s perspective. Australia is currently New Zealand’s main trading partner in terms of imports and exports of goods and services. Australia is also the key destination and source when it comes to direct investment. Fifty-four percent of New Zealand’s direct investment abroad is in Australia, and 36 percent of all foreign direct investment in New Zealand comes from Australia.

Scott Base, Antarctica Security New Zealand is a small country, with an extensive coastline and a substantial sea-borne trade with countries in all parts of the world. The British connection New Zealand became part of the British Empire in 1840. The European (overwhelmingly British) settlers took the connection with Britain for granted, seeing themselves as an integral part of an extended ‘British world’. Until the fall of Singapore in 1941 they regarded the British navy as the main guarantee of the country’s security. New Zealanders served in both world wars. Ally of the United States During the Pacific War of 1941–45 the United States, not Britain, protected New Zealand against the Japanese. After the war, in 1951, New Zealand joined the United States and Australia in the ANZUS alliance. New Zealand’s participation in the alliance ended when, as part of an anti-nuclear policy adopted in 1984, it declined to allow nuclear-armed or nuclear-propelled ships to enter its ports. A South Pacific nation New Zealand has close constitutional and other ties with the Cook Islands, Niue and Tokelau. The citizens of all three countries are also New Zealand citizens. The Cook Islands and Niue are fully self-governing states in free association with New Zealand. Tokelau is a dependent territory of New Zealand and though technically not self-governing, already enjoys a substantial measure of self-government. It is likely to become a self-governing state in free association with New Zealand, like Niue and the Cook Islands. New Zealand is a member of the Pacific Forum, the other members of which are the South Pacific island states, Australia and Papua New Guinea.

Return Home Liberalizing Agriculture: Why the U.S. Should Look to New Zealand and Australia by Sara J. Fitzgerald Backgrounder #1624 In the past several years, U.S. farm policy has taken a turn for the worse with Congress dramatically increasing agricultural subsidies at the behest of the farm lobby. This trend must be reversed. As the world's largest agricultural exporter, the United States should lower its own subsidies before urging members of the World Trade Organization (WTO) to adopt reforms. In doing this, the United States should consider the examples of New Zealand and Australia, which demonstrate the benefits of free-market policies when applied to agriculture. In July 2002, the Bush Administration announced the U.S. Agricultural Proposal for WTO Negotiations, which seeks greater global access for agricultural exports. The Administration advocates reducing domestic subsidies and lowering tariffs worldwide to 25 percent or less. The proposal is ambitious, but the excesses of U.S. farm policy have left the United States with little credibility in agricultural liberalization. WTO members are skeptical of the Bush Administration's proposal and view it as hypocritical. Critics cite the U.S. Congress's reluctance to initiate domestic reforms, as well as high tariffs on imports such as sugar, farm lobbyists who insist on subsidies, and the 2002 farm bill, which increased subsidies by 70 percent.
