Todd McClay: Trade Minister on his meetings in Saudi Arabia, the US regarding trade and tariffs

The Trade Minister says his trip to the US is all about ensuring our trade tariffs don't shift around too much.  

Todd McClay says the 15% duty on New Zealand goods isn't likely to be removed, as Donald Trump is imposing them on all countries that have a trade surplus with the US.  

He'll be passing on the message that tariffs harm New Zealand.  

McClay told Mike Hosking he'll also be asking about future plans for tariffs.  

He says they want that certainty so they can properly manage their risk.
