If this is his reassurance tour then he should go back to Canberra, from L-plated Treasurer Josh Recessionberg today:
“In today’s global environment characterised by changing demographics, elevated debt levels, environmental pressures, and great power tensions, it’s critical that we pursue reforms at home that retain our competitiveness, openness, and fiscal discipline, and that globally we remain a strong advocate for a transparent and rules-based global economic system that has strong multilateral institutions,” he will say.
Mr Frydenberg will argue the World Trade Organisation needs to be “reinvigorated” with a better dispute settlement system plus a broader remit to deal with e-commerce and opportunities in the digital economy.
