    Michael Wood is the latest Minister to head offshore

    Michael Wood is the latest Minister to head offshore


    The Transport Minister is travelling today to the International Electric Vehicle Symposium and Exhibition in Norway.

    The conference brings together Ministers, policymakers industry representatives, researchers and NGOs to discuss electromobility issues.

    Wood says we don't make vehicles locally so it's vitally important we're seen as a viable market for low emissions vehicle manufacturers -- and that's the message he'll be selling in Oslo.

    He'll also visit Geneva to meet with the International Labour Organisation and Global Road Safety Partnership to discuss Fair Pay Agreements and the Road to Zero strategy respectively.
