The Honourable Ed Fast, Minister of International Trade, today marked the conclusion of the latest round of Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) negotiations. Ministers from negotiating countries met in Singapore from February 22 to 25, 2014, to continue their pursuit of a comprehensive and balanced agreement.
