TTIP is arguably one of the most ambitious projects that the European Union is currently pursuing. It is essentially a free trade agreement which the EU and the United States of America have been negotiating since 2013. The TTIP seeks to remove tariffs, non-tariff barriers, and trade restrictions in a number of sectors between the EU’s Member States and the US, which is expected to boost transatlantic trade. Once negotiations are finalised, the European Parliament, as the institution representing European citizens, will ultimately need to vote for or against the proposed TTIP. This publication follows on a consultation exercise held at sectoral level with the intention of collecting perspectives from the domestic business community on TTIP together with the Maltese MEPs. The aim of the exercise was to stimulate wider discussion on the negotiations while seeking to reflect the outlook of domestic enterprise.
