Britain will offer Australia a zero tariff, zero quota trade deal following a 15-year transition. Despite this, a 15-year deal has now been agreed by the Cabinet committee in charge of the negotiations, The Sun reports. The Prime Minister chaired a meeting of senior colleagues as negotiations with Australia about the terms of a deal continued. The PM's official spokesman said: 'There are a regular series of meetings on not just this trade deal but the deals we have been working on throughout. 'Any agreement would include protections for our agriculture industry and won't undercut UK farmers,' the Prime Minister's official spokesman said.
