Question to the Department for International Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, what steps he is taking to ensure that anti-dumping measures for ceramic tableware are not withdrawn when the UK leaves the EU.

On 24 July 2018, the Government published the provisional findings of the trade remedies call for evidence into which existing EU trade remedy measures will be transitioned. The provisional findings from this indicate the existing measures on ceramic tableware will be maintained when the UK leaves the EU. The Government is aiming to publish the final report before the end of 2018.
