Trade with India: key issues
The India-Australia FTA (known as the Australia-India Comprehensive Economic Cooperation Agreement or AICECA) negotiations are now on hold.
Major issues:
ISDS and tariffs: Australia wants TPP model of ISDS, but India wants more limited version. India is also reluctant to move to zero tariffs.
Temporary migrant workers: India is seeking expansion of temporary workers with less labour market testing and other changes to student visas and computer-related service providers.
